Thank you, my Bubbles passed away on Friday... :( We are in the middle of moving to an acreage and will be taking her with us to have a special spot out there for her.....
:( things are not going well...now it seems like she can't open her eyes and she still has food in her mouth from the last feeding...I still haven't noticed that she went to the bathroom yet either....is there anyone in north west Alberta on here who would be interested in nursing her? I am so...
