Miss Lily
Chameleon Enthusiast
Today, the Rainbow Bridge gained another little green angel and she is now reunited with Tommy and Lily. Sleep tight sweet girly.
Sadly, my dear Amy was put to sleep this morning. An autopsy revealed septicaemia along with infections in most of her organs, plus some internal bleeding. Looking back, I don't think she ever recovered fully from the pneumonia she had in January. I rushed her to the vet at 11.15pm last night as she had blood stained mucous coming from her nose and mouth. She was admitted to intensive care and give fluids and Baytril, but although she made it through the night, the vet felt that she was far too weak this morning and there was nothing else he could do for her. Yet again I found myself faced with the most heartbreaking decision you can have to make.
I got her back in May 2009 when she was a teeny tiny 3 month old with huge eyes and stick legs.
She only laid one clutch of infertile eggs in November 2010 and reached the age of 3 years old.
