Updates - Part 1
The news has been largely good lately. But first, I must send condolences to Terri and Jeremy Cook on the loss of their mouse, Stuart. Yes, I know, he wasn't a rabbit but Stuart was one of the luckiest critters I have ever had the pleasure to meet. He was literally picked up in a parking lot by a good samaritan outside an OSU lab, thus avoiding both becoming a laboratory test animal and being done in by any number of outdoor hazards. The ultimate stroke of luck was to be adopted by the Cooks. RIP, Stuart.
Our friend Quincy continues to recover nicely from his eye surgery. In case you're curious to know what an eyeless rabbit looks like, see below. Doesn't he look fabulous? And that gorgeous white figure belongs to Lucy.
As you may recall, Laine and Doug Kathary had bonded Teddie with Hope just a few weeks before Hope died unexpectedly from kidney problems. Teddie is now visiting with Maggie who is also a graduate of the Cardington barn rescue. So far, the bonding is going very well. Maggie is a gorgeous black and white lop. Keep your fingers crossed that the bonding continues to go well!
