well, I have finally picked up a dark tan boy from the SPA Mauricie.
he has puss in the eye, drooling, bumble foot.
I did not take a pic because he has been thru alot in too little a time. so I will let him be for now.
I have put drops in his eye, Blue knot on the bumble foot and will take a vet appt tomorrow.
We shall see the over all and see we should push things.

Poor guy. I hope the drooling isn't due to malo.
Hoping for a quick recovery.

My appt with the vet is friday. we should do good.
I certainly hope I can do this for him Kara... He most deserves it after two years of I don't know what type of care. He is a wonderful boy.
I have overlooked him carefully this afternoon and I have good hopes that we can help him.
He is in good spirits. The SPA said he came in with a cage that was caked with crap and when they gave him food and water it was as if he had seen the color of those two in quiet a while.
I have started giving him a bit of metacam for any pain he may have.
I will definitely keep you all posted.

Oh my, poor little guy sounds in rough shape. I'm so glad you rescued him and am giving him a second or third or who knows how many chances.  |

Oh my god! I am in awe/shocked. I just went back up to check on him. Maybe I am putting the buggy ahead of the horses but, his eye is looking really good and his chin is dried up, sure the fur is tangled like but it's dry.
Is it possible that it was his eye that leaked so much it would make it look like drool? I certainly hope so.
Can't wait till tomorrow morning to check this out... It would be such good news.
My biggest worry is/was malo., other than that the eyes and feet are curable.
He is eating hay and pellets and has very nice poop, so what are the chances of it being malo. Xfingers

I am sadden tonight. this morning his chin was dry and his eye looking better. Tonight when I got home his eye was small and his chins totally soaked.
It is so strange. He has eaten all of his pellets, drinks well, urines and poops. I just can't wait to get to the vet on friday. It kills me to see them this way.

I am unable, I work 12 hour shifts. He is on metacam right now for any pain that he has and cleaned his eye and put humain eye tears(drops)
Oh and he lost 6 grams which is nothing after all the moving around he has gone thru.
thanks for your concern
