Pearl
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Thanks Kate. I'm sure Twiggy will still look out for Pearl on her walks. I doubt we'll have to turn round when we see you and Twiggy now. I'm certain saying 'Derry and Pearl' will still get Twiggy off the settee! Anne-Marie xxx

Visited Daybreaks today to have our 3 greys claws clipped and took Toms tin of sardines as promised. Tom is a lovely boy, gave him a big a big cuddle. He seemed really restless and stressed, I wish he could find a new loving home to go to......xxxx

Oh my goodness, what a terribly worrying time for you all. I'm glad to hear that Ruby is making progress, you must have been delighted when she got up to greet 'Auntie' Ina. We're sending you all our thoughts and keeping our fingers (and paws) crossed for Ruby. Love from Mand (with licks from Gent and Emily) xxxxx

an update on Ruby for you all from me, Ina, Andrew and Claire have asked me to tell you how she is doing as they are having problems getting on the site at the moment. first of all they want to say thank you for all the good wishes for Ruby and all your kind thoughts. Ruby was diagnosed as having meningitis, not a heart attack in the end, however she was and still is a very poorly girl and has only just been allowed home after being with a specialist vet clinic all week. she is taking lots of medication to try and fight the meningitis and although she is still weak she is improving slowly. she got up to greet me when i went to visit her at home tonight and she knew that i was her 'auntie Ina' which was lovely to see. please keep all your fingers and toes crossed that she will be able to fight this terrible illness and that she will regain her strength before too long. Ina xx

Thank you everyone for your messages. Ruby has been diagnosed with meningitis. She was very very ill-crashed at the vets but he managed to revive her, thank God and was paralysed from the neck down. Anyway after 3 nights there she became more stable and she was moved to a specialist vets in hucknall.the vet there did MRI, bloods, spinal tap and X-rays &stayed there for another 4 nights on I've fluids/meds. Shes now home but is still ill as the meningitis and fluid on her brain is still there.but thankfully she is making some good improvements. She's on strong antiobiotics and steroid pills and will be having regular blood tests to check her white blood count as that's still high, as well as physical checks to make sure she doesn't regress. We just have to hope and pray that with lots of tlc, drugs and a peaceful/restful time at home she'll make a good recovery from this. We would like to say a very special thank you to Ina for helping out on the day it happened, texting&calling to see how ruby and I have been doing & for visiting today with a lovely new collar as a get well gift for ruby. We very much appreciate the time and effort you've taken ina. Xxxx

Jack
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Had the pleasure of jacks company today. Deb brought him training!! However the highlight of the day was when he went to meet the bengal cats. He was such a good lad. Passed with distinction. I suspect that the little female feline, Jess will be the boss, as at one point jack turned the other way to avoid her eye contact and needed a little lean of re-assurance!! 😉 bless. He was also more than pleased to be cuddled and stroked by nicolas son who is a very sensible young man who has done his homework and knows that Greys need to be left whilst sleeping, and a BARF diet will be good for him. So, all in all a good day for Jack. Nice new forever family for the special laid back shiney handsome hound. xx
