As some of you MAY have seen many weeks ago I wrote a long piece about Losing one of our little gals..who were sisters and were alwys together...Thumper (bumpy sadly passed away after what we think was a stroke..We layed her down in front of LuLu so she would know, and after licking her head and ey littes, not getting response she new..and at back down, and was sad for many weeks, then turned int lonlyness..and we had trouble findinf her a friend (male) near her age......WELL WE NOW HAVE.
aFTER 3 MONTHS FROM bUMP'S PASSING.. WE NOW HAVE A NEW ADDITION..His name is NOAH...We got him from the RSPCA place near Exeter called LITTLE VALLY ANIMAL SHELTER www.rspcaexeter.org.uk/ - .
He was found in a shopping bag outside of a supermarket, and someone handed him in..so they nicknamed him shopper!! :?
Anyway he was hour an half away from us, but we went down to see him, filled ot the adoption forms..reserved him, they had to arrange with our local RSPCA for someone to come and see the accom (which has to be min 6ft long with run attch or under. and check enviroment, other pets kids, etc.
Finaly 2 weeks later we were given go ahead to go get him. On the morning we went to get him they rang saying they were worried as his nose had some discharge, and were worried he MAY have the "Snuffles" though could also be the recent sudden change in low temp...So we took a chance, and went anyway, he was fine, all dry nose himself, eating, no problem,
He came back with us in our red large pet carrier which was sitting on my wifes lap, lid open he kept opoping up lookin around and My wife stroked him most of the way home.
First night he stayed indoors(old run was brought into llounge) We turned heating off, so he would not have shock of temp next day.
Anyway Before all this I had been building an ext onto our lagre Super hutch, I attahced the old 5 ft hutch to the end of the under run on the large hutch, then that led to the new 7 ft x 4 ft x 2.5 ft run, which I had build a turf box (as we have no grass in back) I then build in a cat flap. See picks on my photobucket..which also has pickas at end of LuLu and Noah, first date and hteir bonding at the end, took one week...I left the partition wire chaparone wire we called it..which was a one layer wire barrirer between him and her, so they could get used to each other through wire, sniff each other etc, and one 10-20 min daily date with each other in run when we got home from work.
The pics are on photo bucket album
