Muzzled

Kacee has quickly learned how to eat while wearing a muzzle.

Why would I want to muzzle her?

Grass laminitis. Metabolic issues. Insulin resistance. Sugar problems. Call it what you may, she has suffered the past two years out on pasture despite her obvious love of grass. It might be equal to my having access to pecan pie, white chocolate, and caramel custard 24/7. Why bother to stop eating? It tastes soooooo good. And then the body gets sick. Sooner or later.

I wonder why I expect myself to make health-supporting decisions about what to eat when such a eremarkable beast as Kacee cannot.
