I just informed Noko that it's time to get up and she is not concerned.

Pupdate: she just flopped her head out over my lap and SIGHED so dramatically.

It's chilly this morning; Noko needed her blankie for her after-breakfast nap.

My godmother recently lost her husband and then her only kitty. So glad Noko can bring her some joy.

On warm nights, I toss this throw blanket off the bed before climbing in.

Lately, Noko has taken that as an invitation for violence. This has become a nightly ritual.

She just shoved her way past me to flop down like this.

I'd rather lose the arm than disturb the princess.

I click into my #loconokomis tag a lot. Just cruising through pics and stories of my dog to stay grounded.

She's got that loco glint in her eyes. Shit's about to get wild for that toy.

For Intergalactic Dog Day, I submit for your enjoyment this video of Noko as a youngster, trying to solve a riddle.

Noko's Summer of Suffering continues.

Stepped on a bee mid-poop this morning 🥺

Noko has never howled, not once, her entire life. Even when Artie was still with us, I would get her howling and Noko would just look at us like we were nuts.

WELL. Recently, and for reasons unknown, that has changed.

PUPDATE: Noko's fecal PCR showed two positives: clostridium perfringens (which was my #1 pick) but also circovirus, of which there is apparently a particular strain that affects dogs.

So, mystery solved, I guess, though too late to speed up her treatment.

PUPDATE: As of this morning, Noko is no longer suffering from exploding butt.

Still very curious what the fecal PCR may show, because I would like to avoid repeating this experience, but very relieved she is feeling better.

She must be feeling better! First toy she's picked up since last Monday <3

PUPDATE: Noko is eating and drinking again, finally, but the squishy booty persists.

I got a SQ fluid kit just in case, but she is staying hydrated on her own so far.

Fecal PCR test pending 🤞 hopefully it will tell us something.

PUPDATE:

Good news, she had a good appetite for dinner after a dose of odansetron.

Bad news, the diarrhea, and therefore the butthole scorching, persists.

Fecal was negative, so still no idea what the problem is.
