I am happy to announce Hope came home today from her follow up vet visit with remarkable progress. She gained 30% of her original body weight, and is no longer considered starving! She went from 300 grams to 415 grams! The staff that originally saw her could not believe the difference in her condition. She will need to continue antibiotics for just a little while longer, but she is doing so much better than anyone ever dreamed. Even the swelling to her private areas can no longer be detected, although she'll be monitored closely in the upcoming weeks. I am just so very grateful - she is going to be fine! As for the Pet Supermarket cruelty charges, PETA is working closely and aiding the investigator in determining the "responsible parties." Mellisa Eberle Cid, Boo, and a nearly healthy Hope! http://www.robandmellisa.com/hope.html [Posted in FML issue 3817]
