Whiskers Survived!







Whiskers is alive! Whiskers survived her surgery, and is now out of the ratty hospital.
My friend sent me an e-mail about it. Here it is:
I would like to let you all know that Whiskers survived the surgery,and she is back home with us. :) However, we got some bad news, too.Instead of just a tumor that would be relatively easy to take out,there was also a line of cysts (look it up). The Doctor took out asmany cysts as possible, but some of them were too dangerous to get.We don't know whether the cysts are cancerous or not. We decided toget a pathology report, too, which is good. Sadly, she has to wear acone on her head to keep her from chewing on her stitches. She hatesit because she can't groom herself and she can't reach food with herpaws. :( :( Right now, I'm sitting with her and she is VERY tired.We have to give her 2 medications for the next 10 days: a painkillerand an antibiotic.Luckily, she will be back, rambunctious and sniffy in about 2-3 weeks.Until then, we are letting her rest as much as .Please pray that the cysts are not cancerous, and that Whiskers willnot get sick, because we all love her. :( :(

Whiskers Again






Sorry everybody, I've been talking about Whiskers a lot lately, but it's just so important that Whiskers is cared for. I just got an e-mail from my friend who owns Whiskers (I'm not going to say her name because she might not want me to) and she said that a kind friend of her Dad's gave them $300 for the surgery! YAY!!! So everybody be happy and hope for the best!!!

OH NO!!!!!!!!


Hi! its me again! Today, my cat almost ate my gerbils. I was sitting in my room, knitting, when I heard a bang. I looked over and saw that my cat had just hit her paw against the gerbil cage so hard that it had shifted back about six inches. I made sure to get her away from them as soon as possible.

Yo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I haven't written on here in a long time, so the news is pretty old, but I wanted to tell you about some stuff. For the gerbils' birthday (on the Fourth of July) I got them a pink car that they can run in. It's so cute! I also got them yogurt treats, which they love.


By the way, they're still as mischievious as ever.

My black and white gerbil, Oreo, is an escape artist. She is always finding new ways to get out of the cage, even without the help of my cat, and my tan gerbil, Lizzie, follows along. Just a few weeks ago, they got a hold of an edge in the cage, and within an hour they had chewed a hole big enough to crawl through. It took me a long time to catch them both.

WELCOME

WELCOME to the rodent cage. Here, I get to write all about my gerbils. This should be fun!
