Annie, made it through today with a lot of attention and nursing.
Everything on the farm has revolved around her needs..... horse feeds..... dog walks. Everyone has had to wait, and they've done so willingly.
She's snug and warm in the hay-shed tonight because the weather looks squally. I sat with her feeding her from a bottle at 21.30 South African time (20 minutes ago).
She LOVES her bottle.....like most babies.
She arrived as a 24 hour old, almost dead orphan, at the same time as Charlie-Moo, 13 months ago, and I bottle fed them both for 4 months.
720 bottle feeds!........believe me, that many feeds give you ample time for bonding!
This pic shows them at my bedroom door (in the early months) waiting for brekky bottles.
I hope and pray that Annie will make it through the night, because I love her with all my heart!
