Please send healing vibes to Ruth! She was looking really unwell last night. She was very wobbly and shaky and I feared we were reaching the end. As she was so weak, she could only take syringe food very slowly. I spent the evening feeding her little and often. She’s looking very much better today and is enjoying her ‘all you can eat’ buffet. I’ve temporarily split her from her friends, as they were grabbing all the food from her and even taking it from her mouth. She’s currently in the hospital cage, in my kitchen. She’ll remain here until she’s well enough to rejoin her friends in the log cabin. She’s due her regular dental on Tuesday, but I’ll bring it forward, if necessary! I think she was just running out of steam yesterday and she has already gained over 60g in weight. Although it’s lovely to be part of a bigger group, they can nosedive if they start to feel unwell, as they just can’t compete for the food. As they get weaker, competing becomes harder!
I feel very much more positive about Ruth today!
