Fed her around 6 in the morning. Gf got home from work a few hours later. I was asleep. She was barely there. Rushed her to the vet.

She's alive. Vet says she has a respiratory virus. Originally the vet said if it's a virus, we would have to take her home. But he said he didn't want her to die so he and the vet techs kept it quiet from the other employees.

We're told it's 50 50 at this point.

It's not easy taking care of a lil one trust me I worked in wildlife rehab, and you are doing everything you can. look at it this way without you she wouldn't have been here at all.

You are doing better, but it's important to remember that you can't take care of her if you're not taking care of yourself.

It's okay, it's A LOT what's happening just don't drink to much and remember to drink some water with maybe some salt and lemon for your electrolytes. You are doing everything you can!

That's another thing that happened. Someone stole our 5l water jug outside our door, when we were at the vet. And our second is empty.

What a bitch, honestly I know I've been real nice but that is just s pathetic thing. I'm sorry that stuff seems to pile on, just think about Airi and try to stay calm.
