I don't know how I missed this thread, but it's been such a lift to read about your special girl and all you're doing for her. THANKS!!!

Great outcome so far! Love the cage too, looks almost like mine.

I'm helping out a wild guy with a broken arm right now. What vet did you use? I'm just South of Tampa.

Wanted to get a pic of her standing tall, doing her best groundhog pose... or one of her tail up high in the air and flicking.... but she only gave me the groundhog stance since the kids came to get their breakfast.

Every day is like a new checklist item is taken care of!!!
Shes getting zoomies.... shes actually putting weight on her hind quarters when moving/standing/etc..

Shes doing soooo good now!!! You all have a big part to play in her success!!!

PS: dont judge me too harshly for the cage floor.... its a false floor that she chews on... gives her something to do that isnt affecting the actual cage... and makes her feel like shes gonna get out... hope is a powerful thing for mental wellbeing.... shes a fighter, so gotta help her keep that fight alive!

Thanks!

Shes been released!

I had to take a little bit longer than expected, to release her.
Getting the box hung high in the tree was challenging to do and also secure it properly, so if it came down, there would be additional safety measures that would prevent catastrophic failure.

Cant thank you all enough!

Great job with her. She (with your help) has overcome so much. Be safe out there, little one. Live long and lucky!

This is wonderful! We have to see so much sad here sometimes - thanks so much for updating us n this very NOT sad outcome!

Awesome to see this

SOOOOOoooooo happy today!

After she was released, I didnt see her anymore.
While I expected that she would be super busy with getting her home setup again, since she didnt use the treehouse i put up for her, I still hoped that she wouldnt hate me for keeping her in the cage

I keep feeding the local squirrel family like normal, but had dropped it back to half as often, so it would put pressure on them to come get good food. (And bring mommas back out so i can see if shes good or not).

This morning, she showed up!!!!!! Shes not the first to eat, which she used to be..... all in due time!!!

Couldn't get a good pic of her, but i didnt want to spook her while she was trying to get her grub on.
And somehow, it shows pic upside down.... oh well :/

I was able to get a zoomed in pic thats much better, of her eating a grape in the tree in the front yard....
