It\u2019s official. Shadow is well and truly fat. Oh I know she didn\u2019t want the rest of us to know her weight, but our Mistress let slip that is a horribly overweight 25.5kg! The funny thing was that at the end of swimming Aristotle was given a biscuit and Shadow refused to leave until she was given one too. I told her with that approach it\u2019s no wonder she\u2019s so heavy. Ari is working on the shame principal and calling her \u2018Fatso\u2019. I\u2019m just glad it\u2019s not me. Anyway, her rations have been reduced to half what she was eating before as she isn\u2019t walking that far with her bad leg. I guess if she was putting weight on she didn\u2019t need as much as she was getting but it does seem a little harsh. I was even wondering about giving her a little food out of my bowl, but that thought did not last long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ari has not been swimming for a while and really didn\u2019t want to go yesterday. He did his best to go in the opposite direction, but our Mistress simply picked him up and plonked him in the water. He\u2019s funny. He\u2019s a really good swimmer and once he\u2019s in he\u2019s more than happy to swim up and down the pool. It\u2019s just he has to make a fuss about getting in. He\u2019s a much faster swimmer than I am even without using his back legs. He could have been in the Olympics if only he\u2019d tried a bit harder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile Wilma is taking everything in her stride. More to the point she is very laid back about it. She still burns off the calories zooming around the garden. To be fair, she zooms almost everywhere. It\u2019s all right until she zooms straight into you when it can be a bit painful. We cherish moments like these.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
