We have a bit of bad update. As reported on Thursday, Cleo was nowhere to be found. We searched and finally found her...she was dead. We just finished the necropsy with Anna and Rosie. We think that it was a perforated abdomen from a sharp bone fragment.
Chewbaaka is very stiff and has reduced his food intake. And Cruise is not doing well either. We will take him in tomorrow to work him up.
Also last Friday the OK cubs all had stomach problems. We de-wormed on Saturday and had them fast most of the day were very active and playful in the afternoon. It turned out they had a bacteria and are much better now.
Sorry not to end the day with better news. But we will continue to look after these cheetahs that we all care about so very much.
Thanks everyone for all your good wishes.

I was so saddened to read the news about Cleo yesterday... She has been in my thoughts for several years. I am sorry for your loss.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I wish Cruise and Chewbaaka the best of luck and a speedy recovery. And good luck to the Chocolate sisters and Chanel, too! I am very happy to see that they are doing well.
Thank you, CCF, for the wonderful work you do.
