Well Puddin passed away last night at the Vets. The vet said that he was kind of suprised because she was responding to the fluids they were injecting her with. They had also started her on an antibiotic. Unfortunately it did not help. The Vet was not sure what had caused to to become sick. He speculated that it could have been a parasite or someother kind of infection. He said that unfortunately since they are so small they get very sick quickly. That is why it is soooo important to get your sick glider to a vet as soon as you even suspect something is wrong. I had a feeling that she wasn't feel too well on Saturday night but since she was eating and drinking and came out to play I thought I was being over protective. Well I wish I had been a little more over protective and taken her in a day sooner. Anyhow, I will be bringing Brett in tomorrow to be checked just to make sure he will be ok.

Thanks for listening,
Teresa
