Making progress!

Amos is making sure that I see him munching on pellets so I know that he does not want to be force-fed ever again.  I think we're both still traumatized by his rapid transformation into a fluffy tornado of teeth and claws.  Thankfully, he had the good grace to take his bite-y wrath out on the towel.  Alas, my arms are testament to the sharpness of his newly vet-clipped nails.

Naomi is munching on her celery and giving me the side-eye.  She still hasn't forgiven me for baiting her into my lap with a papaya treat and switching to giving her pain meds instead.  (She got the papaya bite afterwards, I'm not a complete monster!)  Granted, she did nip me in a place that totally violates the girl code along with on my arm and fingers during her day and a half of force-feedings every 2 hours, so that should be more than enough payback.  Girlfriend holds a grudge!

They're both recovering well and don't need pain meds anymore.  They're eating more each day and have been hitting their greens and pellets pretty hard.  I'm going to give them each some yard time tomorrow so they can get some exercise now that they're off the pain meds.  I'll keep a close eye on them so they don't run amok, but being able to feel pain if they overdo it should help them go easy with the playtime for now.
