Mouse was born with only three full legs. Her fourth leg is only half there and the knee joint is backward and the bone sticks out. Whenever it is cold, she hurts, bad! She doesn't complain, just looks miserable. Her favorite place to be when it is cold is in front of the heat register. Poor baby was miserable when we were without power. As to Palmer, her time-out spot is her carrier. It is a big one, room for her bed and then some. Whenever she goes after Mouse and is rough, I tell her she is going in a time-out and she gets put in there until she calms down.
