    And look what happened! she must have just been scared, because TODAY SHE IS BACK TO NORMAL!!! Im SO glad!! That waas one of the reasons not to vet her-- i wasnt sure.
    And you KNEW you "weren't rich" when you captured her out of the wild, yes? Under the circumstances it's best you leave wildlife alone or call a licensed re-haber IF &
    when any animal needs help. Wildlife doesn't belong to the first person who sees it, you know?
