Looks beautiful and I want to see the birds and alligators and manatees. Judging my my finances I'll probably get there when I'm 60, and the manatees will be extinct.<BR/><BR/>You're right about people, so many people just don't care about anything other than themselves. But there are quite a lot of us who care for hogs and other animals and many more who donate money even if they can't physically help. I know I don't think of myself as special, but maybe I am because other people who do the same things most definitely are. Did that make sense? It did in my head.Robbiegirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06528997485488258141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23755840.post-1153771656169366592006-07-24T20:07:00.000+00:002006-07-24T20:07:00.000+00:00Please don't be put off, it's really beautiful her...Please don't be put off, it's really beautiful here.

I picked Basil up in October and kept him indoors so I could feed him up a bit as he was too small to survive hibernation. It turned out he was sick and needed antibiotics and I had to hand feed him for weeks as he wouldn't eat by himself. Then he got ringworm and mites and lost a lot of fur and I had to treat him for that. Of couse I'm going to help him again now he's injured, poor mite. And I'd do the same for any other hog too.<BR/><BR/>I think once you get to learn a little about hogs and watch them (like we do on the webcams on Yahoo) you fall in love with the creatures, they are so cute and endearing. And they're on the decline and certainly need our help. Bless them. Life's mean to hogs.<BR/><BR/>You've just almost put me off going to Florida, lol!Robbiegirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06528997485488258141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23755840.post-1153754096094898732006-07-24T15:14:00.000+00:002006-07-24T15:14:00.000+00:00Anna, You are an Angel of Mercy. That is so wonder...Anna, You are an Angel of Mercy. That is so wonderful of you to help out this poor, wounded, infected little thing. I hope he feels better.<BR/><BR/>And yes, the thought of flies and maggots is even worse than thinking of the huge, bird-size cockroaches we have here in South Florida.Carmenztahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11766983162057446234noreply@blogger.com
