My fuzzy lop mom Biscuit is doingfine. I don't know how else to put it except"She hasn't gotten any worse AND hasn't gotten any better."
It seems Biscuit will survive with a disability. She iseating well, but has lost weight. I'm pretty sure she isn'tnursing anymore because her nipples have shrunk and the hair aroundthem is growing back. Tonight will be the first night shewill be seperated from the kits who are only 4+ weeks old.Don't worry, mom and kits will play all day tomorrow in a largeexercise pen.
Triscuits is showing very poor signs lately. I've been slurryfeeding nutrical and oxbow crit care, but the last few days haven'tbeen a success. Vickie, I don't want to alarm, but ourlittle Triscuit is well, um, developmentally delayed. Today,Easter, poor Triscuit mostly slept and sort of rockedrythmically. Her/his head is arched upward. Thesibling, Caviar, is such a wonderful buddy. He/she exploresthe cage, acts silly, and does all the stuff you'd expect, but alwayschecks on his/her little sis/bro. Triscuit loves the oats and eats themup. And I try to syringe feed water every so often.
Mom's head is tilted pretty bad. She loves her kits but getsrisky every once in a while. No seisures, but she definatelyneeds and appreciates her space. She loves to wander theoffice, which is about 300 sq feet! So far, we are prettylousy at litter training, but that's cool, I'm ready to shampoo thisrug anyway.
Thanks for all the great people who care. It really is sonice to have so many offering support. I am so grateful foreveryone.
More good news later, I hope. God Bless all the bunnies.
