I just noticed a little bit ago that all of the babies were gone from the upstairs. When I got to looking, they had all gone to the bottom and were either snuggled up with their nanny (Lucy), who just got to go back in with them a couple of days ago to let some of the stress off of their mother (Lilith), or eating! They aren’t even three weeks old yet, but they are running around, crawling up tubes, and even stealing food from their mother.

In other news, I came home after being gone most of the day to find a small doe no more than a month old, trapped in an old no-kill trap I had laying around. She was scared, but okay. Currently, she is living in our travel cage with plenty of food and water because she was rather dehydrated. It has been a whole day now since I found her and she is rather jumpy but looking better. She is also very friendly. Just another cute little wild mouse I couldn’t stand to see killed by a mouse trap or the cats.
