Beatrix Potter
Mama Doe
I attempted to bond Spudsey with Bramble over a week ago, both at home and at their boarding place.
Both times resulted in them rolling about and it appeared that Spudsey (female) was pulling out brambles fur. The second time around when I separated them Bramble bit my hand (lovely top and bottom tooth mark) which I thought was probably intended for Spuds.
Checked both of them over the best I could, (spudsey doesn't like being handled, shes the wild bun) and left them for a week (apart!) when I went on holiday.
Picked her up on Sunday and have just noticed as she was standing upright that she has a huge scabby mess under her tummy :shock: Booked in at the vets at 10 past 6 but felt like an awful owner especially when the girl said "a week ago?" though this particular veterinary ass is also a bit grumpy so perhaps I'm taking it to heart:|
Looks like a made the right decision in Bramble going back to the rescue centre though! However now very reluctant to try and re-bond even though she was perfectly happy with Squirrel, would like to move her back in the house as a house bun but no room really and o/h would probably not agree!
Sorry for rambling, o/h away and no-one else to ramble at.......
