Hettie who is one of our lethal gene (blind/deaf) girls has had fragile health for a while. Just over a week ago, I thought I was taking her on a one way trip to the vets, as she was looking very weak and was unable to swallow food. However, after Simon worked his magic on her teeth and gave her some sub cut fluids, she made a good recovery.
This evening, as I sat looking at posts on the forum, I heard her coughing. I looked into the cage and saw her collapse onto her side, totally unresponsive. I quickly opened the cage and gently lifted her out, thinking she was dying or had already died. As I cradled her in my arms, I blew very gently onto her face. Her body jerked and she gasped for air and then stood up. I have just been syringe feeding her and she is already looking much brighter!
Please keep her in your thoughts!
