WH ALBERT

Picture
June 8th: Welcome to dear little rescued lamb (name to come), who arrived this morning. He had been cared for by a loving couple for a week, after being discovered stuck in the straining wire of a fence.
He is quite poor in condition, so is ensconced in our heated bathroom tonight, with veterinary assessment tomorrow if needed.

June 9th: Dear little newbie lamb visited Kardinia Vet Clinic today, as we were worried that his energy isn't a leaping lamb, more like a lounging lamb. Dr. Geoff Davies has prescribed antibiotics, to be proactive, as lamby's temperature was up a little, and he has slightly loose manure. Hopefully we can get on top of whatever infection his body is fighting. He spent the day either warm in the hay bales, the heated (IXL roof lamp, column heater & hot water bottle) bathroom, or in a basket in my car, with his hot water bottle.
Huge thanks to dear Dr. Geoff, who donated the consult & only charged us for the meds.

Geelong Advertiser Article: WH Albert
Thank you dearest Erin Pearson, the awesome photographer Glenn Ferguson, & Geelong Advertiser; for sharing little WH Albert's journey. 
He has improved his strength overnight too, & impatiently drank more than he ever has, at this morning's early feed- almost a full feed!
His energy is much better too, & he is increasing his exercise, able to follow me around the home, with Crezzi supervising!
Picture
June 12th:WH Albert is doing well, though his tummy is still upset. 
He is sparky though, & we have started him on probiotic, Protexin.
June 13th: Escapee! WH Albert pushed his way out of the heated bathroom & ensconced himself on our senior border collie's (Indy) bed! 
The floor is heated here, so he isn't silly!
June 14th:
WH Albert is getting stronger & drinking so much more (& well)! 
Here he is warming in the bathroom, while we wash and dry his jacket.
Excuse the nappy, but it does make for easier clean ups!

June 22nd: A shout out to Dr Alicia Kennedy, Dr. Emma Stella-Hall, and dear Diana Moon-Hayes, of HAMPL, who are all helping us work to save dearest little lamb, WH Albert.Albert arrived into our care two weeks ago, with diarrhoea, and was underweight for his age - with the suspicion that he is the smaller of twins.Albert has battled high temperature, scouring,bloat, and now appears to be fighting joint ill; this can begin as an infection at the umbilical area, which goes systemic, and effects their joints. The poor boy is not that keen to walk, his temperature is non-responsive to penicillin, yet the light in his eyes is bright, and he is drinking really well. We are getting higher strength antibiotics today, from dear Emma Stella-Hall, and also have him on homeopathic Bryonis, Aconite and Belladonna, as well as Coloxyl Drops for infants, as he now has constipation as well. 

Please send him healing vibes.

June 23rd:
 Dear little WH Albert is fighting so hard. He had a bit more energy this morning, as seen in the video.
He is still clunky in his movements, and doesn't stay up for long, but his appetite is great.

​June 24th:
 WH Albert cam! Excuse my high pitched voice, & pussy cat Luna meowing in the background, but it shows dear little WH Albert getting around better. Todays Video Link: 11649958_901569529889459_1535303383_n.mp4
More "Maaa" cam, of dear little WH Albert & cheeky 'warning meow' WH Luna... Video Link: 

June 27th: A quicky WH Albert video for this arvo; he needed pain relief last night, but has rallied again today, spending time outside, helping me weed the garden, & and getting to know maremma x, Macca.
Love Carolyn ️Xxx

July 6th:WH Albert has a new minder, with our big boy Macca (probably 80-90% maremma), who keeps an eye on the little bloke.Albert's pain levels are getting harder to manage though, with more regular pain injections being needed.

He is starting to eat grass at last, but only if served to him, as he hates standing on grass! He also loves lamb pellets, but these constipate him further, so need to be limited. He is also starting to lap at water, helped by the salt lick he loves.

Hang in there dear boy. Xxx

July 9th: It is with the greatest sadness, we announce the passing of dear little battler, WH Albert, yesterday afternoon.There were complications with constipation and despite enemas and the best of care, his body could not fight on any longer.

We have lost a little buddy, a pyjama following friend, a very bright light.

Heartbroken,
Carolyn & team xxx

RIP WH ALBERT
