Update on Cricket
Cricket is doing better, but he’s still in “critical condition” as you can see in this picture. He’s just so sick looking.
Take a look at this shot, taken when we first got him. In this picture, he’s vibrant and full of spunk:
He’s moving more now and we’ve been good about hand-feeding him, maintaining a good hot temperature, and you can see we replaced the seeds with paper towels. The vet said the seeds were a big problem and I’m thinking the seeds were probably our biggest mistake. The pet store said that swallowing a few seeds was totally fine. That may be true, but Cricket is still crapping seeds an it’s been almost a week since I removed them.
I went to a pet store who said that paper towels are the safest way to go so that’s the way we went.
On a side note, Vista did a decent job prompting me to import images to Windows Photo Gallery when I inserted my digital camera. This is the modeless dialog that sits on your desktop during the import process.
