Sweet dreams Erica and Percy.
Erica lasted just a day after my last blog entry. On the Friday night she was sat down the front of my top (for the warmth!!) eating bits of hobnob biscuit so I felt she’d picked up a bit but on Saturday morning it was obvious she wasn’t going to make it so I reheated her heat mat, made her comfortable and left her to go in peace. An hour later she was gone. 
A week after this I then had to make the most difficult decision there is for my Percy. Deep down I just knew it was time. The vet agreed completely so I said my goodbyes and let him go. I always insist on bringing them home afterwards so Percy is now sleeping in the garden along with all the other meeces I lost recently. I really hope he will be the last for a while now. 
I do however have some good news to report, about time methinks!! My poor Timmy who has been living alone since Pete passed away is so no longer. He is now happily introduced to the calmest of the foster boys (the black tan), now named Henry and the two foster girls who are now called Alice and Hope. They can now all stay permanently as they are living in the ruffy cage that was formerly Tim and Pete’s so at least something good has come from his passing. Given all the sad news recently this is fab and has cheered me up no end. Just two single boys and a pair left to sort out now.
Also Jessica’s chest has cleared up! I suspect it may be something that is going to bother her as she gets older but I can be on the alert for this but for now she is breathing without any noise at all which is a big relief!
