Bushy is Sick

All of a sudden Bushy started showing symptoms of being sick.  Lost interest in playing.  She started defecating in an unusual liquid form instead of the usual solid form.  The biggest tell was that she could not stand properly and maintain her balance.  Her hind legs  would give out and she would fall flat on the floor.  It was such a sad thing to see.

She brought tears to my eyes seeing her still trying to keep up her spirits.  As usual I could see anticipation in her eyes.  I will be taking her to see a doctor in a while.  I hope my girl would recover soon!

Bushy is a Girl

It had been two weeks since Bushy made a trip to its doctor.  So I decided to take it to see him again.  Finally the day I had been waiting for... to know if Bushy is a girl or a boy.  The doctor finalized it.  For the first time I am calling Bushy a girl!  All this time I had been using "it" instead of "he" or "she" and now I can stop that.

She is playing around nonstop day and night.  But she is a good girl.  When I put her in the box to sleep at night, no trouble after that.  It is like we switched off some circuit.

Doctor decided to give Bushy a little bit of medicine for the worms.  He said that she was almost over it now.  Happy us, are we not Bush-meister?  I am going to publish a new photo of Bushy tomorrow morning.

Two Weeks and Counting

It had been two weeks since Bushy came home for the first time with me.  We are still calling Bushy "it" because we honestly do not know if it is a boy or a girl.  We think that it is a boy... but never know.

Bushy has a doctor's appointment this Saturday.  I am going to ask the doctor to confirm its gender.  Regardless Bushy is now part of our family.

Also I think it is important to note that getting Bushy to drink its Vitamin is getting difficult every day even though I administer it through the dropper just like the doctor recommended.
