The Minis we rescued November 16th, are doing well. Slowly putting on weight and acting more like Minis and less like walking death. The person that had them pulled some more stuff, and has basically 'hidden' the other eight Minis. (If you live in or near the Exeter/Freso area and have any word on "free to good home" Minis in the past week or so, please contact me. Hopefully they're receiving care and out of her hands.
I will give her credit, at least the three we received yesterday had been brushed, obviously fed and some attempt at trimming them. It's just unfortunate she chose to not care for the others the past year. We all have financial constraints in life, but I'll be damned if I'd be getting a manicure (she did) while I had a horse walking on these hooves:
That to me is reprehensible. I can't imagine, putting a cosmetic need of my own over this. We all have to make choices at times when it comes to care and some aren't easy ones, but this? There is no reason what-so-ever to have a horse suffering in this condition.
