What happened to you today :)

[pufferpuggirl]

Today was more water changes, as will be tomorrow. My Congo Orangey seems to have a bit of fungus on him, so I've been using Pimafix. Poor Orangey, seems he is just not doing well, however, I put more shrimp into his tank today and he immediately sparked up and was watching them, even tried to get one, but the shrimp was too quick. I then decided to put some bigger guppies into his tank, and that also seemed to perk him up. I normally feed my piscivores small fish, so they are eaten all at once, as I don't want the fish to suffer (don't like the thought of the puffer taking a bite and leaving part of a fish swimming around). I had a guppy that for the past couple of days, has been having problems swimming. I don't know if it was a swim bladder issue or what, but I am sure he was destined to die, as he just didn't look very well. So I decided to put him in with Orangey and Orangey really looked interested. I sat down across the room to watch, and then my dogs needed to go out. Wouldn't you know when I came back in Orangey had already eaten the ailing guppy! But it was nice to see Orangey's tummy looking a bit fuller than it has been. So I'm hoping that if I put some bigger fish in there with him that maybe he will eat them and gain some weight. I am seriously concerned about him because he's so thin and is so picky about eating. And now with the fungus, I'm even more worried. So I hope that he will get a little more energy and that his immune system will kick in and that he will get better. He's such a pretty puffer, that orange is almost a red colour it's that deep. So fingers crossed that Orangey gets better and eats more guppies!

& What a pain in the a** kilofey..

Today I am having to take my puppy to the vet because we got a phone call saying that 6 out of the 8 in the litter have passed away due to an internal parasite from the mother. We're taking him for a check-up and blood work.. hopefully all is okay!! Wish us luck!!

[zombiefetus]

Oh no! I hope your puppy is okay :[

[L!$A]

Thanks Zombiefetus.. he seems to be a happy & healthy puppy, but we're not going to be taking any chances!!

[pufferpuggirl]

Oh Lisa, I hope that your pupper is okay, that would be awful, but you are doing the right thing by taking him to the vet. I can't believe that all those puppies died, how horrible!

[Tigerlilly]

Aww I hope the puppy is ok too I'm sure he will be! and if there was an internal parasite I'm sure by taking them to the vet and getting medication it can be sorted easily anyway..
I have to take our kitten back to the vet tomorrow, she's now got a huge lump under her stitches.. not hurting her or red or anything but we're just going to check it out.
My male kitten had to be cut open when he was being neutered because he was cryptorchid ( I think that's how it's said ) it was a bigger cut than the female and he had a small bump and was fine so I'm sure it's just swollen or something.

OMG, good luck! Poor pup!

Today was amazing - perfectly warm and breezy - so after dinner, my roommate and I went on a walk down to the spring by campus and picked flowers and stuck them in each other's hair.

Way to rub it in our faces! We have had nothing but cold, foggy miserable weather here in NL for the past week.


Awww, I hope your puppy is okay Lisa; as well as your kitten T.Lilly.

any pics??? when i read that it gave me the image of 60 or 70's hippy era hehe

[LilGreenPuffer]

Haha, yep, as soon as I upload them!!! We were thinking more along the lines of flower fairies/elvish maidens, actually, but I'm a total hippie. I actually put a dandelion in my hair earlier today and wore it to class...

EDIT:






And my lovely roommate Amy...

Puffer people's roomeys have the BEST deal, they get to enjoy the poofers without having to do the upkeep!

Today I drove my fiance up to the Berkshires for a week of relaxing, bed and breakfast food, and catching up on her sociology and philosophy reading.(yay for her tax return) I got to spend the day, but I'm back at the apartment caring for puffers and guinea piggies and the sea-monkeys, and got to spend MY tax return taking a tiny chip off the mountain that is my credit card debt.
