Too funny Christie! Actually Mike and I snuck out of the dark room, raced to the livingroom to high five madly (didn't wanna freak out poor Saoirse!)

We are being realistic though. This is just one tiny step on the road back for this female. She may well regurge (we pray not), she may refuse yet again or she may go happily onward eating and gaining back her proper weight. We knew before we decided to adopt her that it could be a long and frustrating road so we are keeping our hopes reasonable till we see a strong, consistent feeding pattern and a steady weight gain.

That said it is thrilling to peek in on her this morning and see her nicely curled up in her warm hide just like her "sisters" are doing after last nights feeding of all of them.
