COLD DARK ROOM

[Lyn W]

During an interesting conversation in class about being a blood donor...........

Pupil: How much blood have we got?
Me: Depends on your age and size.
I expect I have about 7 or 8 pints of blood.
Pupil: (after looking me up and down) So - how far up your legs does that come?

I think I will show the start of this old classic tomorrow!!

Poor Beastie too, what are the symptons of that?
They are so easily affected by changes aren't they? I hope he is better soon.
I do worry about him - especially as I am in work and not here to keep an eye on him. I did manage to pop home today at lunchtime just to make sure he had eaten and was relieved to see he had, but would feel better if he left me a big puddle!
Lola has a warm soak everyday because I don't see him drink so its my way of keeping an eye on him and making sure he is hydrated. His food is well sprayed as well.

He looks rather anemic and refusing to eat. Like yourself I am bathing him every day to make sure he is well hydrated. They are and the thing that frustrates me is I moved house on the 28th of August and that's such a long time to be ill and stressed- I can't help but blame myself
Is he maybe peeing and your not seeing it? how are your temps? Is it maybe that he's trying to retain his water because the temps are dropping? I know leopards dont hibernate but just a thought

Possible but not usual for him just to use his substrate he leaves puddles all over the place.
His temps haven't changed but maybe he is reacting to the change outside - will give him till tomorrow evening I think, I would never forgive myself if anything happens that could have been prevented.

Long old drive then?

9.5 hours to get out of Florida And Into Georgia. But it's about 25 degrees cooler here. I'm sitting on my mother's front porch and it's about 46 degrees. Nice.
Today we went to the Albany zoo but most of the animals were hidden.
......Miss you guys. Bye.

You know I think they notice the darker nights too and that makes them lazier and their natural instincts kick in.
I hope he does a pee for you soon!
I am away to bed now. Enjoy the rest of your night
