A visit to the vets today to check Vogan's leg. Along came everyone, (except Hannah who was at the stables of course!) James, Jessie and I got ready to leave- and then Jess remembered that Cocoa, the guinea pig, needed her claws trimming , so she went into a shoe box, Saffy - not one to miss an outing, jumped in the back seat, and Vogan travelled in an old wine box in the back seat.
What a motley crew we were when we arrived. the vet Mr Mitchel was very accommodating and he said Vogan's leg was quite swollen with a lot of fluid on the 'knee' joint. he thought it had probably fractured. As he had been like it for a week, and had in fact improved was eating, playing with the others etc he said we could either just leave it or we could bandage it.
So we have decided to leave it loose and as it heals he should start to put some weight on to it.
It's been a glorious day, Hannah is just going down to give a lambs a last feed - yes she does come home occasionally!
