The hammock is back in the cage this week.  I've been getting a kick watching Boadicea sleep in it.  In the past I've noted that B...

I adopted Bertie and Pinniped (named Sweetie and Midnight) on a cold January evening in  2010.  We had lost Pippin a few weeks before, and ...

Pinniped of the non-stop nose , proud owner of the double-wide , has left us. Sunday night she was clearly unhappy and hid herself as m...

I've switched Pinniped's daily fluids from subcutaneous to oral.  I had a hard time getting the full 30ml into her the first few d...

Wheek, wheek, wheek-wheek! This summer has been pretty good for spending time outside in the yard.  Pinniped and Cannoli had several aft...

Pinniped has been stable.  She's still on the hydrochlorothiazide (which I can now spell and pronounce without looking at the bottle)....
