Puddles to Patties

I have to say, the boys are doing great. Both had gained 2 ounces yesterday, which is wonderful. Ira's poo has been upgraded from puddle to cow patty.

During our visit yesterday afternoon, I sprung them from their cage, and took them into the foster room. I spread out a blanket on the table so they stretch their legs a bit. Both boys seemed very happy to be out of their cell and spend some time in their little prison exercise yard. I moved my hand under their blanket, and they pounced on my fingers. I rolled them on their backs, and tickled their wee bellies. They wrestled together, bit each other's and their own tails too. SOOO much energy and improvement!

Things are looking good ! Hopefully they'll be home soon!

    Sounds like they've still got a bit to go, but having them more firmly (no pun intended) on the mend is great news.

  22. So glad the baby Finches are getting better! Ira you are a TRUE baby cow kitty - so glad your poos are cow-patties now! Keep it up little Finches!

    And thank you, Laurie for your updates. We are all rooting for you and the boys. You are truly a miracle-worker, and I am glad you have gotten some solace from the IKBC community. It can be such a lonely anxious time when our furry babies get sick.

    Warm hugs and thoughts to you all!
