Chico's organic chicken demands

Though Chico showed no signs of being ill again, a small gland around his neck re-appeared in the spring of 2015. 

The vet decided to play it safe and found that the lymphoma had slightly surfaced again. Chico seemed to have no idea of the situation; jumping around with his normal zest for life.

It was decided to put him on a low dose of chemotherapy and not so often so as not to upset his system too much.

I have seen him more often and I am sure he is wondering what all the fuss is about but enjoys the cuddles from me never the less.

Chico’s coat is not so spotty, reverting to his old self and he is still giving Harry the run-around with three or four bowls of food at his command for each meal.. he even turns his nose up at non-organic chicken now, preferring the organic choice.....QUITE RIGHT TO!

Chat it's FateSummer Special 'Hassled by Heaven'

Spirit,Hungarian circus pony dreams of Saint Tropez

Spirit has certainly had SPIRIT throughout his life and even more so during the trying time with his poorly front feet; He has gone from Aladin Slippers to dainty toes, handmade shoes with rubber inserts, Knees that would not bend, a dramatic day with the vet and Playdough yet he still walks on. He is a pony with a zest for living and poorly feet will not stop him!

Now Jessica’s dear farrier John, has come up with another ingenious idea to help Spirit move with comfort; FLIP-FLOPS! Yes, those wonderful soft rubber beach shoes that slip between your toes; FLIP-Flops for Spirit. John could be seen wandering around the local clothes shop picking up all manner of shoes and other items, bending and squeezing them to imagine how they might work. When he came across the FLIP-FLOPS at £4.00 a pair his hunting was over; armed with four pairs of assorted colours he proceeded to the check-out.

The flip-flops were cut to shape and glued to Spirit’s front feet, within an hour Spirit was tripping across the gravel driveway as if he was on a beach in Saint Tropez much to Jessica and John’s delight.. Down the track he ambled marching round to eat the lawn in the front garden then back round past the goose feed and home... all on hard ground.

I’m not sure how long they will last over the gravel but at that price he can have as many as he likes in all different colours!
