RIP my little Bug

Many of you may remember my ‘dumped’ girls, I had a phone call from my vet at the beginning of January of last year asking if I had room for two girls. They had been found abandoned in a filthy carrier under a slide in a children’s play park and handed in to the vet. Well last Friday one of the girls, Dot (also known as little bug) passed away. She was only about 15 months old but neither she or her sister Poppy have aged very well really, probably down to the rotten start they had in life. In spite of the way they were treated as little ones both girls have always been so laid back and friendly and Dot will be sorely missed by myself as well Poppy and the rest of the group she lived with. Sweet dreams little girl. :(

Fortunately I also have some cheerier news in that the other three welsh neuter boys were neutered yesterday and it all went without a hitch. Whilst I was at the vets collecting them I got talking to a women who had a hammie with her and another with a gorgeous bun which made a nice change as normally I share the waiting room with dog and cat owners who give me strange looks lol! Anyway it turned out the bun lady also has a pet mouse so I pointed her in the direction of the site in the hope of being able to sort her out some company for her little lady. She seemed really nice so I hope I do hear from her. Also I have had a home offer through the site for one of the previously neutered boys which is fantastic so transport is currently being sorted to get him there. If they both work out I will be very pleased as given the sheer number of mice involved in the welsh rescue none of us had very high hopes of being able to home our fosters!

And finally I am going on a trip to Starlight rescue tomorrow and will be coming back with four new little girlies. Two of them I am adopting to intro to my freddy cage group (I had planned this even before I lost Dot) and the other two will be fosters who I’m taking in to be company for one of my foster boys. This will still leave me with four lone boys (not including the black boy who has a home already lined up) but is a step in the right direction at least.

I will post again to introduce the new girls in the next couple of days so watch this space! :)
