The first 3 months of 2008 have gone very quickly.
We have been very busy with
taking in 28 chinchillas so far this year, along with
a waiting list of approx 15 more chins waiting to come
in. Thankfully, 21 have been rehomed, but many more
are waiting for that very special ‘forever’
home.
Sadly,
two rescues have gone over the rainbow bridge, we also
said goodbye to our own Bobbie, who is greatly missed.
We
still have a number of chins being monitored on a daily
basis, a female is to undergo an operation to have one
of her eyes removed due to glaucoma and a lovely male
will shortly be having an operation on his ear, but
needs to gain weight first. Another female who has already
had two operations to have lumps removed is being monitored
as another tiny lump has appeared.
Sable,
a blind female was found suffering from a prolapsed
womb, she was rushed to the vets for immediate surgery
when it was discovered she had a tumour in her uterus.
She is making very good progress but will be closely
monitored.
Earlier
in the year, we took in a delightful 19 year old called
Chong who is progressing very well despite her age!
This ‘young’ lady is full of character!
Time
permitting, we hope to update shortly. We are in the
process of working on a better website and hope to be
online very soon. |
