Hello
After all the turmoil I felt 18 days ago. I have gone and got Honey.
For those of you that don't know about this, have a read of my previous thread.

I thought she was going back to the breeder a couple of weeks ago, but discovered last week that she still hadn't gone.
She had been put in the back room as she has got eye problems (which the shop have been bathing daily) because they didn't want anyone to have her with the problem.
I went to see her on Thursday (mistake). She has grown so much, probably because she couldn't have any exercise and her eyes are really bad.
I felt so sorry for her.
The shop said she would definately be going back to the breeders TODAY (saturday), but couldn;t tell me what would happen to her after that.
Of course, I then had another sleepless night, not able to get her out of my mind. Same again all yesterday afternoon.
By 5.30pm last night I couldn;t bear it any longer. I had to go and get her.
So I did.
She is now at home, indoors after all ( i have put her in a metal run in our dining room) It's not ideal I know. About 5ft long, 4 ft wide and 2 ft high (approx), but it is so much bigger than she's had.
She will be able to run around our lounge in a few days time, but fo the moment I want her to settle.
I have booked her into the vets to see "auntie Billy" on Monday 6pm for a health check - eyes, teeth, weight, nails heart, etc.
She may well have her one of her jabs done at the same time.
In the next couple of months I will get her speyed(SP).
I know this situation is not ideal, but I HAD to save her.
Incidently, Eric and Ernie, will not be meeting her. Their routine will not change.
I am committed to doing the very best for them, as well as giving Honey a perfect home for as long as possible (hopefully forever) that's the plan.
I hope I haven't offended anyone by getting her, I know how much rescues are promoted on her, but in Honeys case, I really believe she needed rescuing.
I'm trying to download a video of her in her new home, but it's taking forever. So I'll do it later.
Sorry for the long post
