I wish it would’ve been him [James Herriot]…
I took my mice to the vet today, both are sneezing and wheezing lately, I reckon they’ve got a cold. A. had the day off so we went over to the Veterinary Surgery. The vet had a good look at them, he only took one out because I told him the other one was vicious, he attacks at times but I reckon that’s because he might be blind. I noticed some odd behaviour. Or it’s years of breeding that has affected the brain, that’s what they do to mice anyway, all inbreed… I had to save these two, to me they’re sweet and cute especially the dark grey one.
He was hurt by the vet, I could hear him making noises and see him trying to bite the vet. Well I think he had the right to bite the vet since he wasn’t very nice to him, poor thing. I’m happy that I no longer have my ferrets, to be honest I wouldn’t trust them with this doctor, there was something ‘funny’ about him and I can’t really put my finger on it. I have to give them antibiotics every day so let’s hope they’ll feel better soon.
