Tomorrow , we are taking quite a few of the rescues to see Dr.Tomaschke. Quagmire the white pigeon is getting a wellness exam to make sure he is perfectly healthy before placing him as adoptable. He was wandering around outside a neighborhood for a month before anyone was able to catch him and bring him to the rescue. We want to make sure he didn't catch anything "bad" from outside. Baby the cockatiel is going for a wellness exam and beak trim. Baby was surrendered after a family moved into their new apartment and found the last person that lived their had abandoned Baby. The family was unable to keep her, and weren't expecting a bird as to part of their new home. Chillia the chinchilla has a runny eye and some fur loss around that eye, we want that looked at. Remi the hairless rat has a small lump that we want Dr.T to check out. And last but not least, the two female guinea pigs, Abby and Juno, arrived at the rescue already pregnant. I am certain Abby is pregnant , Juno I am not as sure. I want Dr.T to confirm if they are pregnant or not and make sure that everything is going okay with their pregnancy. Complications can arise with guinea pig pregnancy and labor. I am worried about these two girls. I am always so worried and nervous when a pregnant guinea pig arrives, I wish it wouldn't happen. We are completley against breeding but all too often , we take in a pet hat has already become pregnant somehow prior to their surrender. We also take in unwanted litters of babies. We would never, ever intnetionally breed or cause any female to become pregnant. Our mission is to help homeless pets , not create more.
Now that I went on a tangent and also went off topic.. onto the hermit crabs. We took in two hermit crabs two days ago. They were bought for a child, and then the child lost interest quickly :( The crabs made their way to the rescue so they can find a forever home. Hermit crabs are great pets and are as deserving of excellent care and love as any other pet. I have named the crabby duo, Jenga and Poker.
