Good and bad

enismirdalGood things: Ran second of 2 online workshops for little Scoping Project. Generally went well, met some good people and had some good discussions. Hopefully it will lead to collaborations and projects.
Bad things: Banku has died. She was making the odd peepy noise for a couple of weeks, but initially this seemed to be a response to seeing us - she'd be silent, then see us, run over and start squeaking while begging for treats. Earlier this week, she had stopped peeping but was visibly panting, looked rather bloated and a bit sad. So took her to the vet (and of course, once an appointment was booked, she looked 10x better and stopped panting and looking bloated and looking sad...). Vet suspected URI, prescribed antibiotics and painkillers. I popped her back in the cage and I think she must have gone underground and died from the stress of it all on top of whatever was up with her already. Obviously upset because I was looking forward to the meds helping and her getting back to her usual self. At approximately 10 months, she was the youngest of my three. (Crumpet is about 16 months and Kookoo is about 22 months old, so both of them are mature-to-elderly.)
Looking forward to having a simple and peaceful weekend...
