Re: For anyone interested...


UPDATE from Bella's human mum:



"Bella (Sandy) and Ivy (Poley) Safely delivered 16 kits about a week or so ago...

after being seperated for 2 weeks prior and another week after the kits Bella who has never lived alone in her life started acting a bit lifeless... and was becoming exhausted coping with 11 kits too boot...

Her friend Ivy was so laid back with her 5.. that she didn't even want to use the nice nest box we built her but liked the fleece filled washing up tub out in the middle of the cage instead... so we watched very carefully and thought we might offer Bella a little help...

The results were miraculous... Bella is no longer exhausted and is behaving immensly grateful for her friends company once more... so we have 16 kits and 2 mums... happy and healthy and thriving!"

Awww thanks for the update Tink

How sweet that the two mums are looking after the kits together ....... I wonder if they can tell which kit belongs to which mum?
