Up and About
We had a long snuggle after she got her meds this morning.

And then she had breakfast with Éowyn!

I'm supposed to be taking a social media break because of an illness flare-up but meh, this forum is so chill I don't think it's causing me stress.

I made myself read ahead...lol

I'm so glad to see her coming back to herself, sweet girl.

And so happy for you and Mrs Bob!

Thank you.

Thank you to everyone. Your words of encouragement and prayers truly helped us through this crisis. We are not out of the woods yet but things are surely looking up.

@BY Bob reminds me of when Delft was sick this summer. She was up and down for a few days. I gave her selenium paste in wet cat food and probiotic water until she recovered. Blue and Yeti unfortunately did not survive.
I think it was food poisoning, from fireflies or maybe mold.

Definitely worth considering as a possible cause. This really seems to be infection related somehow. It was day 3 of the antibiotic when she suddenly came back to herself. That is typical with antibiotics.

Jaffarra is moulting and not feeling well. The first time moulters are having a hard time this year. They are moulting hard it seems.

Einstein is molting here. She looks kind of pathetic, but not as bad as some of the pictures on the molting thread. The boys seem to be leaving her alone for the most part, though, so I’m happy for that.

I’m very happy seeing such progress. I pray she lives a long and prosperous life.

She is walking around, eating scratch, and drinking the cat's water. I just can't believe it. It truly is a miracle.

Here she is drinking water just after starting to move around again.

I hate when they have rough molts.

It really knocks them around

Foggy morning. The chickens have never seen fog before, and it’s funny to watch them “should we or shouldn’t we? You go first! No you go! “
