My babies are home!!!! After 5 weeks they are with me!! My pet sitter was amazing!!! She made a bedding set for them, sent lots of pictures, continued to feeed Oliver raw, and loved them!!! Oliver has gotten bigger and more muscle!! His coat is also changed. He is shedding a bit which I was wondering if that was normal this time of year?? As I speak he is sleeping in my lap. Chewie has lost more fur...he is doing great other than that!! He played with Oliver!!! They were chasing and wrestling which they never do!!! Chewie's playing with my sis right now and seems very happy to be home. I missed them a lot....

Yay! I'm glad you've got them back :-) It sounds like you had the best pet sitter ever.
It is normal to be shedding at this time of year, it is going into fall so a big thick fluffy coat should be arriving soon.

She was awesome!! Ok that's good the shedding's normal....His coat is a little rougher and lighter and the fur's falling out. Hopefully chewie will get some fur back too.....

chewie is probably loosing more fur due to the adrenal, not just shedding.
Glad the babies are home! I haven't been away from mine nearly long.

Yes I realize he's losing it from adrenal too, just thought maybe he was losing more than usual because of shedding season too....I don't know, but prob just adrenal. Yeah this is the longest time I've been away from them and hope not to ever be gone that long again.....

I'm happy to see that they are back home with you! I can't wait for you to see Oliver's brand new "raw fed' coat. It really is amazing! Let us know when you begin to switch Chewie over to raw, we'll be here to help.
