Only just had time to come up and update cause Misty won't be left alone for a second - the only break we get is when she's asleep
She's up half the night crying and whining - we're trying so hard to ignore her but it's very difficult cause she makes such a racket and is disturbing poor Scooby.
During the day, she's great, has settled in really well but unfortunately she's hardly eaten anything since we brought her home
She's just nibbled - I have tried everything, chicken, lamb, tripe, scrambled egg but the only thing she's remotely interested in is goats milk and Scooby's food. She kept going to his bowl and pinching the kibble and running off and eating it, so I had to remove it in the end and I don't want an upset tummy
The breeder did say she was a faddy eater but now I'm getting a bit worried - going to ring her later. Has anyone else experienced this? We took her to the vet yesterday for her first jabs and he told us not to worry and that she'll eat when she's ready so I'm trying to not fuss too much.
Anyway, she's lively enough and her and Scooby are getting along great, which I'm so relieved about. They play so well together, and he's even sharing his toys with her. I was a little worried he would guard everything from her but he's been great, the only time he snaps at her is when she goes near his food bowl
We did have a bit of a scare last night though - we had my sister and her boyfriend over and we were all sat in the conservatory eating an indian takeaway. We had put Misty in the kitchen with the baby gate shut. Anyway, we had been eating about 5 minutes and she started crying so we ignored her, next minute the crys got desperate and I just knew something was wrong. I ran in and she had got her head stuck through the bars in the gate
Mark had to take off the gate to release her head as it had got stuck at the very edge, the gap between the edge of the gate and the wall. Thankfully she was OK, but I felt awful
We had bought the gate when Scooby was a pup - it wouldn't be possible to get her head stuck inbetween the bars but it was because she stuck it at the side, if you know what I mean
I was mortified. She was quiet for a few minutes but was OK.
