This week has been an absolute roller-coaster of emotions. π
So many rescues without happy endings. π We are so limited with access to after hours vet assistance as well. It's sadly not all cute joey cuddles. π€
These were two of my late rescues yesterday. The Whiptail was an RSPCA rescue call. She had a live pinkie onboard. Sadly she was too small to be viable and also had suffered injuries from the car hit. She passed warm in the incubator a few hours later.
The flying fox had a run in with a car also. π¦ The caring couple transported to me. A big thank you to Bat Conservation and Rescue Queensland for sending someone to transport him/her to the RSPCA Wildlife Hospital for assessment. π I haven't had a chance to check for an update yet.
Also a big thank you to Fernvale Vets for euthanasing two of the unwell adult Brushtail Possums I recieved in during the week. π
One was definitely a dog attack ontop of a very advanced case of exudative dermatitis. The other was extremely underweight with numerous infected wounds. Euthanasia was sadly the only option for both. No more suffering atleast. π
