I thought I was up to 15-- NEVER-- repeat NEVER tempt fate..
Now at 16..
I made an emergency rescue this afternoon.. poor little guy-- approx
4-5 years old-- never seen a vet-- even though he is obviously ill--
full blown adrenal and looks like he's never even had his toenails
clipped (well they are now) --the owner was surprised that they need
shots and checkups and she didn't "know" that toenails needed
trimming..urgggghhhhh
I don't think he will be with us long-- but I will make it the best
time he has ever had..
The owner said she'd ran out of food awhile ago and couldn't afford a
vet.. He is nothing but skin and bones.. I wanted to strangle her..
It was all I could do to graciously take little CoCo and run.. My vet
wasn't available until tomarrow morn so he's in quarentine and has had
several small meals already-- he is just so sweet.. I'll try to post
pictures soon..He is almost completely bald-- but the starvation
worries me more.. He is very raspy, but has already tried to play and
loves attention.
Advice needed-- what can I do to soothe his itchy skin? He has dug
himself raw. I tried a little olive oil massaged in and it helped for
a bit..
