I wouldn't have been so defensive if people hadn't continued to criticize me on issues that had already been addressed. I don't know Bill but his 1st message (in my opinion) was pretty rude and criticizing & not at all helpful. If so many people on here are keepers then they have experience educating zoo guests & should have better communication skills and do a better job at not making people feel like they are being attacked, which is how I felt thanks to Amy & Bill.

Now, Cory: you seem to actually want to help & not just criticize! Do you have any advice for someone who does not have the funds available to get to a vet until March 1st? I plan to continue the honey water soaks but is there anything else that I can do to keep my little one going until I can get him to a vet?
