A light through the woods

November 18, 2019 by Katelyn

A corner was turned. Burrito has made significant improvements today, much more alert, eating and drinking well, spending time allowing the girls to groom him throughout the day, pant-hooting with the girls occasionally (or at least getting up to watch them), and we even got a small, soft, laugh. He has a long way to go, but cautious optimism embraced, all our hearts are buoyed.

A short post for a busy day, but we know when you’re worried about someone you care about it always helps just to be able to see them. So here are a couple snapshots of the patients.

Honey B has been basking in the care of Mave, who has been diligently following her all day, tending to her wounds non-stop. Honey B has spent much of the day sitting atop her little wheely-cart and zipping around during meals and looking out windows. She still has some healing to do, but she seems back to her clever, quirky self and we couldn’t be happier:
