I'm making the appointment for Luna to meet our vet, but I'm a little confused about her age and weight. The adoption papers have her DOB listed as 3/20/05. She was brought into the shelter after a car accident on 9/30/05. Nothing shows how they came about figuring her age.
My concern is, she only weighs about 4 pounds, a little less. She looks healthy, although her appetite has yet to fully bloom here while she completely adjusts to her new home. My husband says we just don't know what sort of life she had, with the surgery and all, and that she could fluff right up after a month or so with us. She is built small, but can she really be 9 months old at this weight?
Don't worry. I'll be plaguing my vet with questions very soon! In the meantime, any input?
