Noah’s Ark Vet Hospital

 Fruit Bat with her new mom. Fruit Bat was a bit distracted–there were kittens (hurrah, kittens!) playing in a cage in the waiting room at Noah’s Ark.

 

Fruit Bat is no longer wearing casts and she is also no longer a girl looking for a home. Dr. Kim West has adopted Miss Fruit Bat and our little chihuahua will be enjoying the good life with her sister, Tupelo, (and several kitty siblings, as well as some guinea pigs and turtles) the rest of her days. 

Fruit Bat’s legs and ankles are still a little weak after the surgeries and from being in casts. So it will just take some time for her to regain strength in them. Her back ankles will always be a bit weaker than her front ones. However, if Dr. West never lets her walk anywhere (yes, she is spoiled, but she has the right to be) and transports her in the Baby Bjorn where her feet never touch the ground, it might take a bit longer for those ankles to fully recover. But our girl can walk and that is what is most important.

Fruit Bat and Dr. West would both like to thank everyone for all the love, donations, and healing thoughts that were sent their way. They were overwhelmed by the fact that so many people cared and wanted to help. 

Do you promise to love me forever? Of course, you do!

 Today is my birthday. I am so cute and sweet!

Today, April 29, is Tupelo Honey’s second birthday and her mom, Dr. West, and all her friends at Noah’s Ark celebrated with a big party. 

Tupe and her best friend, Yushay, got new party dresses. 

Be honest. Whose dress doesn't make them look like they have a fluffy butt?

 

Even though Yushay got a fabulous ensemble, too, Tupelo still demanded that she (and only she) be treated like a princess for the day.

You are so below me...even though you are way up there.

 

Tupelo Honey is so spoiled that she even got her own birthday cake, complete with a bee on top and a special message from her mom (from the Van Morrison song that Tupe is named for): “She’s as Sweet, She’s as Sweet, Sweet as Tupelo Honey.” The words from the song were followed by, “Happy 2nd Birthday.” Not every dog gets a cake on their second birthday, but they should.

Yum! Let me jump in with all four paws.

 

Happy Birthday, Tupelo. Yushay will be expecting another new party dress for her birthday and her very own cake, too.

Don't tell Tupelo (since it is her birthday), but my dress makes me look like I have angel wings. I must be an angel.

Of course I can type! Do you doubt that I am the brains behind this blog? Haven't you ever heard of ghost writers?

We just got word that Noah’s Ark Vet Hospital has a new voice telling the world about all the nice folks in the rescue business in Dublin, Ohio. This new voice belongs to Yushay, a “rescued, pampered pekingese” with just a bit of attitude. Yushay was brought to Noah’s Ark with a death sentence–her people wanted to put her to sleep. Luckily, Yushay has new “peeps” now and she gets to hang around Noah’s Ark all day long quarreling with Yoda the Himalayan and reporting on the activities at the hospital.

Sign up to follow Yushay’s blog or leave a comment. It makes her so happy, she sometimes “piddles” on the floor. But, shhh…don’t tell her we let out one of her secrets.
