Update on Manasa! (rescue)
Some of you may remember this thread, posted around two weeks ago.
I'm happy to say that Manasa has made a HUGE improvement since then. She just shed today!
She is nearly done with her antibiotics and her respiratory infection is gone..she is no longer bubbling, gurgling, or mouth breathing. :) Her head has healed up nicely and the nasty scab that was on her eye finally came off a few nights ago (she rubbed it off on me, eww..).
Anyway, pictures!!
She's nearly five pounds :gj:

:D I've gotten quite attached to her. She's a very sweet girl. She's got a great disposition despite all she went through. :)
She's not perfect, but compared to this I would say she's made leaps and bounds. :snake:

She looks a LOT better than she did!
I'm so glad she's doing well for you, my heart just broke when I first saw her. Now, she's just a lovely girl. And besides, who minds a few battle scars, they give her character!

That is great news! I have to say that I am pretty weak when it comes to taking in animals in bad shape. I mean I would love to help out hurt animals, but just dealing with an animal in such bad shape would break my heart everytime I looked at it.
Thanks to strong people like you who are willing to deal with the troubles and emotions when dealing with mistreated animals like this, some animals truly get a second chance at life. I really thank you for that.
And yeah, she does look SO MUCH better. I remember when you posted those first pictures. If she keeps improving at this pace, she will look tons better in a short time.
Thanks for being strong enough to help this girl out. I love to see stories like this.

Re: Update on Manasa! (rescue)
Great job!
Now you will never ever want to get rid of her cause you have that connection :). Welcome to the hobby for the next 20-30 years!
Hehehe but seriously I like stories like this :) thanks for sharing!
Re: Update on Manasa! (rescue)
I love seeing the end results in sad cases like these. Good job! I'm glad she's doing so good.
Re: Update on Manasa! (rescue)
wow she is starting to look so good. I am very happy to hear this.

Hooray!
...now that she's mostly out of the woods, I want to say how pretty she is, with that light gold coloring and that prominent stripe.
