reading all this is just too much!!!!!!!! i kept crying, & hoping that everything was going to turn out well. we do have a special family link, all of us, for each other. all of us who have gone through the pain & agony (&MOSTLY the uncertanty of situations)of having our little babies go thru all these horrible illnesses, & injuries, it really takes alot out of all of us. we have all been there, in one degree or another, & to come on this forum, & be able to read all we do read from each other, it's kind of like, we are all of the same mind(like maybe the 'borg' machine in the star trek show) when one hurts, we all hurt, & of course, when one is happy, we bask in that, also. my new family i have come to know is so special to me. we all are special to each other. why can't the whole world be more like this forum? can you just imagine that? i thought of my desperation that i felt w/sissie & cosmos, & i think back on everyone else here, who has been desperate @ one time or another for their little ones, & that, for the most part, you all helped each other to make it thru all those 'cayotic' & dark times. i am much stronger, now, than i was even just a month ago, & it is because of all of you who genuinly care, & all of you do, as it eakes out on all of our posts, no matter what the subject, we are all there for each other, & this is what love is really all about, we can all feel this in this forum. &, even when i would make a mistake, i am talked to in the most direct & caring way, to show me where i am wrong, & how to fix it. my cosmos is alive today because of all this love i have found on this forum. i am looking forward to the day when i will be able to come to the get togethers you have, to meet you, hug you, & thank you all for all you do. there will be ups & downs w/thor, but everything will turn out ok. look how perfectly everything has turned out so far? & we all have each other to be so greatfull to because of this. i've mushed up enough!!! i will close, now talk @ ya L8R josefine

Well, I solved the food issue for tonight. I took his collar off, and put him in a small travel cage. He is next to me. He went crazy for the yogurt. Now he's just taking a break. He isn't showing any interest in his tail at all. I have some pictures of him that I will post later.

well Shawna said he has a little less than half a tail left. but that actually more than i thought he would have! so its a relief that he will still have some. she has pictures of him and his "new" tail, my poor baby. he did really good thru the whole thing. she even took the collar off him last night long enough for him to eat, and he was so hungry he didnt even care about his tail as long as he had food.
Thanks to her I also know now that Thor really likes blueberry yogurt! so he will be getting that and all his favorite things when he gets home! including his cuddle time, and hours of Animal Planet (he likes watching tv for some reason ).

Yeah, and he enjoys a good walkabout, too. As I discovered when I woke up this morning. Cage door open, glider gone. Anyone that has been to my house knows how big the front area is. My heart stopped. But, the little man was socializing with all the gliders in my glider room. Silly. There is a clip on the door now.
He ate very well after he was back in the collar, we did the bird food dishes and he polished off most of his HPW. He does the water bottle very well, too.

Well as most/some of you know Thor, my youngest male was rushed into an angels hands, that angel being Shawna. His tail was necropsis (sp??) and was amputated as of yesterday. as the vet said he is probably going to be in an e-collar for 2 weeks.... so thanks to Shawna and Erin i now have collars.
as most have said on here it is good to practice using the collar. i did it on my big toe first and then decided to bring out Malachai, who is my most dosile glider. if you take a look at the picture below you can clearly see how he feels about me now. i put the e-collar on him no problem and was glared at! then he looked at me and told me where to go and how to get there! now i know some of yall are probably thinkin "yeah right," but after you get to know your gliders well you can understand them and i am telling you i was tempted on taking a bar of soap to my youngin's mouth!! (not really, j/k)

LOL! BamBam, who is my most testosterone filled glider, went for his neuter today. He was so threatening, they had to empty him from the pouch into a plastic bin and chase him around with the gas mask to put him to sleep. Let's just say, the whole building heard a glider curse words that before today, hadn't been invented! When they tried to put the ecollar on him after wards, he invented even more curse words and the people from buildings on both sides heard him that time! Talk about attitude!
