First off, over the weekend , little Preston bunny was adopted. He was the bunny that was found at a local park in the Rochester area. Someone saved him from being hit with sticks. A bunch of kids were throwing sticks at him. The person that drove the kids away and scooped up Preston, brought him to us so we could find a home for him. ( we neutered him too) He has a great home with a family , there are 2 young boys that love rabbits. Their next door neighbor also loves rabbit and Preston himself. Preston will always have lots of attention and love.
Their are 4 new arrivals that came as pairs. Two guinea pigs were brought to us, they are males. There is allergies in the household where they needed to get rid of the piggies :( And it is unfortunate that the ones who bought the piggies did not know their ages and they didn't even have names for them :(:( They also have too long of nails and are filthy, they need a bath. I will wait a couple more days before submitting them to the stress of a nail trim and bath, they only arrived two days ago. They have seen Dr.T already , and they are in good shape despite their "neglect" with their nails and fur condition. They do have lice, and I will be giving them their first treatment of advantage tonight to kill all the lice, they will get another treatment in a month. They won't be adoptable until their last treatment next month. I have named them Micheal and Myers, Halloween themed names. The other new arrivals are two society finches. They were left outside in their cage, no one around, all alone, they were abandoned! And it wasn't very warm out! They are doing okay though, they tuck inside their little nest together a lot. I have named them Rocket and Bullet. They will be adoptable once they see Dr.T too.
Besides Micheal and Myers, Bonnie the sugar glider and Blake the hamster saw Dr.T today as well. We found out today that Bonnie does not have any vision in that eye, and she more than likely never will. When the cornea was perforated, the eye shrunk back, normally a sugar glider's eye is bulgy and bulbous, her's shrunk back and doesn't stick out the way a normal eye would. It also still has a milky covering. The infection is gone, her eye will never be the same, so she is special needs. Her other eye is perfect and has full vision. The abscess and corneal "puncture" is what damaged the other eye. I took Blake in because one of his eyes developed a white cloudiness in the center. Dr.T says it is an ulcer and he can tell it is healing. Blake damaged his eye somehow, whether from his own nails or something in the cage, not sure. I now have eye drops to give him to help the eye heal faster and better. He should be just fine :)
This is a picture of Preston the rabbit, what a sweet heart he is. I am so glad he has a good home.
