Rest easy, my little Macy! 🌈

Macy left us this morning. She had been in the same condition all night, but we planned on still getting her into the vet today as they couldn't fit her in yesterday. This morning, she was eating lettuce and snacks just minutes before she passed. She leaves behind her best friend Lacy, whom she loved so dearly. The girls were SO bonded and often slept in the same hide together and groomed each other. We are all heartbroken losing her. 💔

Healing vibes needed 🙏

Our sweet old lady Macy is struggling. After her thyroid diagnosis a few weeks ago, we knew it was going to be a rough time with her to find the right dose of medicine to help her. Well, we think now her enlarged heart is causing her issues. She may now be in full-blown heart failure. After consulting the vet, we started the first heart medication today. 💊

She is very sleepy, and her breathing isn't right. I hope the heart medication kicks in quick to give her some relief. If she doesn't improve soon, we will get her into the vet to determine if it is time to let her go. I've had Macy for about 5 years, and she has been with me through a lot of life changes, including our big move to the new house a few years back. After she came into rescue, we immediately knew she was special needs and decided to keep her to give her the best quality veterinary care for her issues. Luckily, she has been able to remain quite healthy and issue free despite having a head tilt and being extremely tiny. 🩷

THANK YOU, Christina! 🥰

We are so thankful for the donated hammocks, cuddle sacs, and hanging tunnels. These are AMAZING quality and made with care. 🩵

I was going to use a piggy to show off the donations, but the wanna be guinea pig (Ravioli) decided he wanted to be included! 😂

Rest pain-free, Mochi 🌈

Mochi declined rapidly today. She was not eating on her own, so we fed her. After a few hours, she weighed exactly the same and didn't p**p or p*e. X-rays showed a likely gut torsion that was not fixable. We had to let her go to end her suffering. 🩻

As usual, we were with her in her final moments. She went painless and fearless. 🪽

Good vibes needed 🙏

Mochi was not herself last night. She was having trouble walking but we didnt see anything outright to be the cause. The vet saw her about 2 weeks ago to address her having some private part issues but that seemed to be clearing up with antibiotics and cream. This morning she stopped eating, is very lethargic and just not at all her normal silly self. 🏥

We are going to get her into the vet today and I am worried about the outcome. She is estimated about 8 years old so there could be a variety of things wrong to cause this. I hope for news this issue is treatable. We may have only had her a few months, but she has made her way into our hearts. 💕

Tofu got spayed today! 🏥

Tofu and Reeses were surrendered after their owner faced becoming houseless. Reeses has been spayed due to having cysts. Sadly, Tofu was also suspected of having ovarian cysts, and she also has a skin cyst. 😔

The plan today was to handle both. But due to the location of the skin cyst, it was unable to be removed today as her spay took priority. Sadly this means whe will need more veterinary visits after she gets her spay staples removed in 2 weeks. 😰

Neo 🍂

Since Neo lost a bottom front tooth a few months back, he has required tooth trims to keep his other front teeth at a good length. Tomorrow Neo goes in for another tooth trim. He is being monitored closely by the veterinary team to see if we have to go in and do a larger scale dental. So far the took that broke off hasn't tried to grow back. We did a long course of antibiotics to kick any infection he may have had with that tooth. Luckily he us able to eat fine and maintain his weight. Neo has been with us basically all his life, only being adopted out for a short stint and sadly returned. 🦷

Neo lost his best friend last year and is in the process of bonding with another sanctuary piggy who lost his best friend. We hope Neo and Pheonix will be best friends, but sometimes they just prefer to be neighbors rather than share their space. 🐽

Mochi 🌌

Senior Piggy Mochi has been doing really great since we got her. She learned she really likes lettuce, but still refuses to eat any other veggie. She has become quite social and we have seen her personality come out now that she is comfortable here in rescue. 🏠

This weekend, when we did our weekly health checks, we unfortunately noticed her undercarriage was a but funky. We gave her a quick butt bath where we noticed hair was falling out in clumps, and her skin and privates were really irritated. We consulted our vet immediately, and they had us start on antibiotics and increase her antiinflammatory/pain medication. After a few days of medication, it is starting to look a little better! 🏥

We are so thankful for our veterinary team that helps us when we notice issues with our animals. We always get quick assistance, and we get fit into the clinic quickly when needed. 💕

Introducing Gerry 🖤

Gerry is a 3 year old male gerbil. Sadly, his bond broke with his brother, so he was surrendered to us. He is a busy and fiesty guy with lots of personality. Once he finishes his quarantine in rescue, he will be adoptable. Gerry will not be able to be bonded to other gerbils and would enjoy a large tank with lots of bedding and enrichment for his final years. 🏠

Stay tuned for updates on when he is available! 📢

A hamster named Harold

The hamster obsession all started with an old man hamster named Harold. Harold had belonged to a international student that needed to move back home. She had posted on a local animal group that she was looking for a home for him. I had never owned a rodent, my mom wouldn’t have allowed that. Being an animal lover, I took on my first hamster. Ever since the day I got him, I knew I loved hamsters. He started a hamster craze, and I was out to learn all I could about these little guys. As time went on, I would see other animals like gerbils, mice and rabbits that also needed a refuge. Some pregnant, others beat up and some already deceased. Since 2017 I have been rescuing animals and doing what I could to educate pet owners on proper care. There is no shame in giving up an animal, especially when there are so many groups and organizations to rescue. I learn something new about pets each day as I have expanded my horizon of rescuing to include reptiles. My first experience with a leopard gecko was quite something......Stay tuned for more rescue and adoption stories!
