Notes: Hi I am eightball. I am survivor of being hit by a car. I was treated at 3 different clinics and the last 2 told my caretaker not to get too close as I probably would not survive. I am a fighter though and I did survive! I get along some now, but because of my condition, I am not let out of my cage much.
I love and I mean LOVE gravy! My current caretaker is trained well. He adds unsalted bone broth to the wet food and mixes it up really well. I will lick out every drop of gravy. Sometimes I will eat the rest, but other than gravy, I actually prefer dry food.
I am a calm guy. I was not let out much, but all the other residents, talked to me outside the cage. I liked them all and they seemed to like me. Even though I cannot move well yet, and am lying down, I still make biscuits when someone pets me or comes close. Everyone that visits me says I am a ham 😊 I love attention and when I am taken out of the cage and held, I like it very much.
My current caretaker does not let me out without careful supervision so it is unknown if I explore or climb. I have done well and all of the infections are gone. I had 3 deep abscess wounds, a grinding shoulder and a broken front leg. My caretaker is not an expert, but he thinks my shoulder is better and I do not have pain in my broken leg. I prefer to have an expert look at it for me!
I am a total sweetheart and I think I deserve a chance to live outside of a cage. It is a big cage and my caretaker has tried to spoil me, but it is still a cage.
