2nd Feb - more on Darcy

Today has seen heavy snow across the South East, and some snow here too. Last night I thought i was time to start picking Darcy up, so I got out the magic ingredient - a tin of Whiskas kitten. The solid meat one, not the jelly ones. It was rabbit flavour and as soon as I went in the pen with it she was just desperate to have some. So I picked her up and stuck the dish practically under her nose so that she smelt it before she had time to object. It worked like a charm. She slurped away happily, hardly noticing that she was being cuddled.

I took some more in today, and it worked well. So we are making great steps forward. She is using her litter with no problems at all, and covers everything over. Still building pyramids. She loves to be played with, and is very quick. A pleasure to have around.

At this stage, if the right person came and offered her a home I would consider letting her go, but it would have to be someone who has the patience to keep working with her and not rush things (as I did earlier!) . She will make someone a very delightful pet.
