PETCO- YEAH! Stasis Monster, Carmie, Milo, Ratties, Chloroplast

Hey,

Well, Ali just left with Lumar and Tarin (after Ali so graciously cleaned a few cages and helped with the disbursement of medication!)- the newest rattie adopter from our shelter. Tarin who took in Stewart and baby rattie boy, and Maria who took in the other two boys are both rat smitten. They are "crazy rat ladies," the perfect homes for rats! Both have huge cages, much bigger than they have been living in, and one with a stroller that takes her rats out for walks! YEAH FOR THE RATS! There are 3 more coming in tomorrow.

Milo, our newer head tilt bunny, gave me a scare. I thought his lack 0f a lot of poop in the cage meant he might be going into stasis. I think I'm just seriously used to the really big bunny's and their size poops... He is just fine, ate a whole bunch of parsley and romaine. Stinker. Stasis Monster (dwarf Cinnamon) has been giving Linda quite a run-around with his issues, I'll ask her to blog about it, he's just too much. Buster went into his appointment at the eye-specialist today and he can go off all eye meds. The cataract he has is apparently caused by trauma, probably the same trauma that caused his shattered jaw. He's good to go and he can't wait for Lilly (aka baby Laurel) to get spayed to be his new love. The Emerson's are a great and loving home. I am so upset I can't find the number of the guy who dropped him here, but I guess it is what it is and what is meant to be now, will be.

Carmie (of Carmie and Angel) started breathing heavy today and was taken in to South Wilton. He is being started on meds for an upper respiratory, probably the same thing all else have had since Cleo first came in. She has been in isolation for such a while now, we hope upon all hopes that all is contained.

Our meeting with Petco today re: Hop-A-Long Hollow adoptables going into 1 or more Petco locations was great! We are so thrilled to start working with Petco on a large scale partnership. They can offer amazing things for us to help get more bunnies out there adopted and more education to people looking to own rabbits or even to people who own them already that need to be educated more than by breeders or the lower line pet stores (aka. PSP) that are selling rabbits to make a quick buck (hey, the rabbits do all the work, then they sell their babies for profit and no education about the proper care).

Michele C. is coming by with the Chloroplast for the pens tomorrow!!!!!

Well, wish us well, and a special big thanks to Petco for all their hard work and help to get this started for us. We may be in there as soon as in 4 weeks! Thank you Tom, April and Scott!

Good night!
