RIP baby Chipmunk

[the zoo]

Saddly at around 9pm last night we lost one of our baby chipmunks we were handrearing. After 19 nights of 2-3 hourly feeds the little guy just gave up his fight. Although only 5 weeks old my wife had developed a huge bond with the little guy and was devastated when he passed away. We have decided to now keep his sister who is doing remarkably well considering she was the weaker of the two.

RIP little guy

thanks everyone. harriet, the girl is doing really well. she looks like a mini adult now and is no longer being syringe fed. she is eating soft foods from a bowl so will hopefully be on normal adult chipmunk food soon enough!
