A bit of a sadder post,

Niilo has been suffering from deep retraction syndrome and hasn't been eating or pooping normally for the last few weeks. He is turning five soon which is pretty old for his species, and his sibling had deep retraction syndrome before he died. From my research deep retraction syndrome seems to be pretty much a certain death sentence. He is sleeping a lot and I don't know if he will make it :(

Edward's servant :(:<3::tort:šŸŒ
Very sad to hear how Niilo is. All our little creatures are special to us. Hoping he is comfortable & dreaming of slurping on his favourite food & human. Itā€™s hard when we canā€™t do anything to help x

I am so sad every time I hear that you are getting these injections?????
Do you HAVE to keep doing them?
Can we not ask upon the ā€œSpecialistsā€ on this forum???
I guarantee you that they will find out what the problem is and how to fix it without any doctors.
Just really concernedā€¦

ā¤ļøšŸŒslurp.

P.s.s.ā€” please stop these injectionsā€¦
for me! šŸ¦„
Sorry Gary please donā€™t worry, I hardly feel a thing.
I think I may feel the blood test on Monday though so I will have to bite my lip (or the vet šŸ˜)
Im sure the forum experts will give good advice thankyou. I know they will say I should be indoors under a lamp when itā€™s cooler but that doesnā€™t work for me as I feel trapped & pace around looking to escape. It is very stressful. Our changing temperatures are a problem but I have managed to adapt pretty well so far.
Weā€˜ll see what the test shows ( last one was ok). I like making a fine old mess on my journey in protest!

I'm so sorry about this - he is obviously a very special snail, but at least you know you have given him a good life, and that he has lived to a good age. Zola and I will be thinking of him and wishing him well.

You never know you could be much better by the time it comes to hibernation although Sue and Pete might consider building an indoor enclosure just incase. However this might make George a bit jealous.

I'm sorry to hear this Edward. Hope he's comfortable and I think of your servant as well.

Good evening everyone,

A bit of good news today in that my eldest nephew has got into Reading University. He will be studying archaeology and ancient history! Mum and dad would have been so proud. It was mum's anniversary yesterday and I put some roses in a vase.
I hope Dickie and Angie are okay.

Goodnight everyone

Natrah, Jacky (who will be getting strawberries on my birthday) and Angel Daisy IMG20240814182818.jpg

Dear Natrah -I didn't get my walk today, because my dad had to do some important things in the garden, but at least I had a long stroke from my mum. I shall be singing Happy Birthday to you tomorrow with my mum, and if my dad is there he will sing too, because he is a proper singer, unlike us. He used to come to the special school where my mum taught, to sing and play guitar to the children sometimes, and every single one of the children listened and behaved themselves. !!
Lots of love to all my forum friends from Zola xxxx
and Angie xxxxxxxx
