Our sweet girl finished her first heat about 3-4 weeks ago and her nipples still seem pretty enlarged. Is this normal?

They’re not irritated and there’s no discharge or anything, but she’s our first girl and we’re just not sure what’s normal. TIA

It's been almost 4 years since we adopted/rescued Athena! Here are some recent pics of her.

Was looking for some canned pumpkin today, to make old man Mr Dutch's meals a bit more interesting, along with broccoli and beef broth without onions, garlic or salt.

Could only find some real pumpkin, which young Thorkell promptly stole as soon as I walked in the door. Its apparently the perfect size and weight to roll down the deck stairs and carry around for emotional support.

Hopefully he loses interest soon and I can cook it to entice Mr Dutch to eat (he skipped dinner yesterday and most of his brekkie this morning). He is on a cocktail of paracetamol, carprofen and gabapentin as of this week.

I know the fuzzy donut; I know the side-sprawl; I know the head hang; I know the belly-up.

I don’t know what this is. The lazy-S, perhaps?
