Saturday was an extremely busy day as myself, Laura and Heather had a lot of things to do. Most importantly we had to keep a close eye on Hermione as she is very unwell. She was shaking and finding it increasingly difficult to breathe. We wrapped her up and put her in her bed with a heat lamp. I hope she will make it through. Lynn, the animal manager, is taking her to UCD today to have her examined at the veterinary department.
On a lighter note... we have a new resident who we've named Dewey. He is very cheeky and impossible to approach. He seems to be in a perpetual bad mood. One of his back flippers is swollen so we will have to see what the vet says about that-if he can get close enough to examine him!
Mac and Mushroom were released in Cork on Saturday so good luck boys! Let's hope you have a long and happy life in the wild.
Arin is recovering from his surgery where he had a digit removed. Saturday was the first day he was allowed in the pool in 10 days and he was delighted. He spent all day swimming and playing, chasing his back flippers and performing tumbles.
All of our other residents are in reasonably good form. Silver has been put into Lock Emma with Benny and Paddy so fingers crossed they get on well.
Until next time,
Katie :-)
