A Picture A Day..

"Mum had plans with her friend last night. She was planning on coming home at 12 for my meds but then Crunchie got sick yesterday and was due meds at 9...

So mum took us with her to her friends house! It was a little Chilly but mum gave us our snugglesafe!"

For the past few days Fudge has been very bright. I feel incredibly lucky that my girl is here and she is happy. She has defied the odds, but i am fully aware there isnt any scope for further medications once she deteriorates. 7 months ago i was given the news, and its been one hell of a time. But she is strong, she is happy and she is loved incredibley. Fudge and i are thinking of those who have lost their piggys lately, and hope that those who are also providing pallitive care can find the strength to carry on until the time comes- let them be your guide.

Much love from my precious girl and I xx

"I've been feeling a little down since yesterday. Mum gave me my veg last night, i was shouting at her to give me it then realised it was beside me all along once mum showed me! I ate a little slower than normal but ate better today. My tummys been a little grumbly today so mum gave me a little medicine for that as she cant find anything else wrong with me- I'm still eating and breathing well. I just like to be trouble! I had some snuggles with mum to make me feel better."

So sweet :luv: I've just watched about 10 times! Is that a little popcorn as she turns away? If so, I'm well impressed. So glad that Fudge has still got so much zest for life (even if it isn't a popcorn) and a truly devoted mum.

Thank you :) shes definately happy tonight, its a little mini popcorn/twitch that she does when shes content- normally does it when shes nosying about and looks like what shes doing here :) she doesnt do full on popcorns anymore as shes a little arthritic, but she does mini ones whilst jerking her head and shouting.. But when shes extra happy she does zoomies.. Woke me up during the night with some but it made me smile :)
 
Wow! Fudge must be happy......and feeling well. Mini popcorns and zoomies! Keep up with the good work...it's definitely working.

I have an old gentleman who does mini popcorns.....but not zoomies. His brother, who died recently, did neither, although he liked to escape and explore.
 
"In the 3 years i've lived with mum, i've never liked kisses. But the past few days all i wanna do is show mum i love her lots! Mum wanted cuddles tonight but i wouldnt snuggle down like i usually do, i climbed all over her for smooches instead!"

My girl is feeling a little poorly tonight. The fluid in her chest built up and her breathing was laboured- this caused her appetite to decrease. I stepped in with crisis dosing of frusemide and gave her a 4 hourly dose at 9. Mallow, who is second in the herd, starting being horribly dominant with her so the cages are seperate and fudge is on her own tonight- this is usually what happens when Fudge gets ill. It happened before when she was on vetmedin and it made her very ill, and when she was given half strength frusemide and i wasnt informed.. I've took the expensive dust free hay out the rack for easy access, and offered her some JR farm oat hay. She ate a good amount, then went for a sleep around an hour ago. Up until then she had just been fluffed up looking sleepy but her laboured breathing meant she couldnt relax. It seems to have reduced a little now and she will have her next dose at 1am.

Healing thoughts for my girl please :-(
