Mabel's Trip to the Vet

Mabel: So Doc, I've been really itchy lately. So itchy, that I feel compelled to chew on my own paws until they are raw. Oh yeah, and my butt leaks sometimes.

Vet: Okay Mabel, I think we'll put you on some Prednisone to try to get your itching under control, but first come with me and we'll drain your butt.

Mabel: Sounds like fun. So, how long will I be on the prednisone? Should I worry about bone loss or developing cushingoid features? I'm very vain, you know.

Vet: Don't worry Mabel, you'll only be on the Prednisone for about a week so you won't get chubby. Alright....let's go drain your butt.
