Meg has lost weight - a bit worried!

Aw, poor little Meg, she’s a little fighter though. Sending you hugs, it’s a difficult and sad time for you x
 
I thought Meg had toddled off to the Rainbow Bridge this morning as Christian was still guarding her and hadn't moved all night but she was just in a very deep sleep. I don't think it will be long though. She only ever used to cat nap.
 
:hug:Betsy. I’m watching this with sadness. All the best to you both.

😥 😥 I'm sorry Meg is unwell and not getting better. She and Christian seem to have a beautiful bond, it's something to know that he is there looking after her. Sending you and Meg and Christian loads of hugs at this difficult time :hug::hug::hug:
 
This morning Meg's weight is down to 809g. She was awake and running away from me this morning and when I did manage to pick her up she was kicking me with her back legs. To look at her you wouldn't know anything was wrong. That's the nature of prey animals though. They carry on until all of a sudden they can't.:( At least she still seems to be happy in herself and like I said earlier, she doesn't realise that anything is wrong.
 
Big hugs to you, it’s not a bad thing that she doesn’t know anything is wrong, but it’s so sad for the humans.

Little meg is carrying on with her happy little life with Christian and that’s a blessing, I’m sending hugs for you I know it’s so hard x
 
Meg's weight was below 800g for the first time today. She is eating but clearly not enough. I can't syringe feed her either as her facial paralysis means that it all dribbles back out again as she can't close her lips around the syringe. She hates it anyway so why put her last few days/weeks/however long she has left under stress? I have to give her eyedrops 9 times a day as it is and she's not particularly keen on that either. I want her to have some last happy todays not stressful ones. She clearly was enjoying the Carrot Cottage this morning.

You are doing exactly right by her! Meg's clearly still enjoying life and no point in doing anything that is going to make her miserable. Enjoy the time you have with her! xx
