She almost fell asleep on me 
she is so adorable. She's been out for a cuddle, as has Ebony because she seemed a bit off, shes had some vitamin c, critical care and probiotics and seems to have perked up a bit. She will be 4 soon! Couldnt believe it.

Fern is 6g away from being a whole kilo! She looks so proud of herself I was really worried at one point she was going to be my first fail and that I wouldn't be able to help her. She caught up with Oliver very quickly over the last few weeks.

Oh Fern you clever girl, Mummy will be so relieved

She did it! I'm going to be easing back on her nightly syringe feed over the next week to see how well she maintains the weight and if she does well, id say she's strong enough to handle the stress of bonding and can go in with the herd! If that goes well I will see if my vets are doing elective surgeries this time round and book Oliver in to be neutered so he can eventually join her.

Thankyou! In typical Fern fashion, we solve one issue and then get another 
poor sausage has broken one of her top incisors, problem is the break is so far below the gumline the tooth won't fall out, but its so loose it wobbles and she can't bite anything. All her veggies are soft leaves or grated for now 
never mind, next week she won't have any bars to bite and break teeth on, providing the herd accept her!

Aw, what a shame, my Bill broke an incisor at gum line and had a wobbly incisor. We rushed him to the vets who arrange an appointment for the following day for GA to remove the broken part of the wobbly tooth and by the time we got home it had come out. Their teeth grow so fast it should push out in a day or so x

Oh Bill! Bless him. Typical isnt it, ive a feeling that's exactly what would happen with Fern too, its sticking forward slightly so it shouldn't be too long before it falls out, I did give it a very gentle wobble but its not ready yet, its quite long compared to the others now so I'm keeping a close eye on it to make sure it doesn't start irritating the bottom of her mouth, if it gets too long she might need to go in to either have it trimmed shorter or removed, but we will see, fingers crossed by the morning its gone!

Its gone! She completely cleaned her bowl of grated and thinly chopped veggies like a good girl, took her out for her probiotics and critical care and figured I'd check where it was so I didnt knock it with the syringe and saw itd gone bet she feels much better now.
bet she feels much better now.

Hopefully the tooth will grow down quickly so that the bottom incisor doesn't overgrow.

Fingers crossed I dont usually have missing teeth to deal with, I think when Bramble lost one it only took about a week or so but I cant remember, I'm sure my vets would be happy to burr the lower ones if needed, although Fern might be a bit less happy about it I'm so glad its out, her mouth seemed quite uncomfortable for a while.
