[QUOTE="LizHartley1991, post: 1466911, member: 31466"] Mira is still eating well. Still headbutting and going after me for more. Still stumbling a little. I feel bad though. It’s freezing lately. It’s been hitting below 40 and this morning around six when I was feeding her it was 18 degrees. I’ve said this before but out barn is very old. It has three openings. One opening has a door and the others do not. The one with a door still has a wall that has a big opening that lets in cold. The wind doesn’t come in as hard but it still has a very light draft to it. This barn hasn’t housed living creatures in years so it’s not really made for it anymore unless you’re a cat who can dive between the hay bales in the back... I’ve layed out a lot of hay for her and even tried to block out as much of the cold as I can but it’s still pretty cold... I’m afraid she’s gonna freeze to death or something. I can’t find a calf blanket around here she can wear and the dog sweaters I find are for smaller dogs and wouldn’t help her much... we don’t have a heating lamp or heater in general to give her so I can’t do that. Even if I could I’d be afraid she’d stumble into it and burn herself and the barn... All I can offer her is a lot t of hay to try and snuggle in and a bunch of very old blankets to sleep with but she doesn’t like the blankets so mostly just hay... [/QUOTE]
