Hi everybody!!!
I just wanted to share the good news that the scab that had been trapped beneath the surface of Audrey's arm wound is finally gone. WOOHOO!!! ;D She has a little scar there now, but she is FINALLY back to fully using her poor little arm. I had closed her wound and it continued to bleed under her skin for a little while, so she had a lump there which is finally gone. I'm so HAPPY!!! ;D

Thanks Marie! ;D I was just dealing with her new-found mobility...fortunately, I usually only drink water, so the spill she created will just evaporate.  She's currently sitting on my pillow, looking at me, and probably thinking about her next adventure.  |

Curious how old is she? My over 11 year old females just lie around being lounge lizards and don't get into too much trouble. I miss when they were younger. Don't know how Huff who is right under 2 is going to be yet.

Not sure exactly. But I estimate her age to be between 4 and 5. Mercury was close to 6 when she died of a concussion. She was every bit as adventurous as Audrey. Fortunately, Audrey has never sent me to the ER like Mercury did once. I STILL love Mercury and miss her though, the ugly finger de-gloving incident was her last act of pent-up anger toward me, she loved me unconditionally after that. I discovered one day, while being distracted during hand-feeding of Audrey...that she actually stops chewing on her food and waits for me to move my hand before continuing to eat the food I am holding. I guess its true what the CoRHS director said about her, she's so gentle I could even put my finger in her mouth. She told me not to try that though, because Audrey CAN control her biting, just not the sharpness of her little shark-like teeth.

Mercury was close to 6 when she died of a concussion. I STILL love Mercury and miss her though, ... Sorry for Mercury. She sounds like she was great once she was able to get rid of her anger. I know how hard it is to lose a dear pet and friend. I still love and miss Lady (died about 7 years ago) and Sampson (died 2 years ago) a lot. Again I am glad that Audrey is doing so well. Hope her adventures don't cause any more injuries. Marie |

Thanks for the kind words Diane and Marie. ;D Mercury was angry with me for many years after I accidentally pulled part of her tail off. She even seemed to get a "My God!!! What have I done?!!!" look on her face after she bit me. After that...we were inseperable...everywhere I went, she had to be. She even seemed to have better judgment of character than I did about my former fiancee'. She pooped on my computer monitor while I was chatting on-line with my ex who was away on business. I realize it might be silly, but I think Mercury was jealous and SHE saw the evil that I had been blinded to. Oh...believe me...I don't take my advice from a lizard, this woman DID turn out to be a horrible person. The "monitor incident" is one of my fondest memories of Mercury. ;D
