We lost the fight for Poppy's life Tuesday evening about 8PM.
She fought a tough battle, and lived these few short weeks fully and with many happy comfortable moments, thanks to you, and to our staff at MaJical Miniatures.
We accepted the responsibility of taking her o...n knowing it would be a tough fight to win, and an expensive one in many ways, and though we lost her, we have no regrets that we tried, and we will forever have what she left of herself with us, and within us.
She drew people together to help care for her needs, and she offered us glimpses into her wild fears, and finally allowed herself to trust us just enough to manage her with less and less trauma each day. In her first days with us, she reminded us what strength a wild exotic animal can exhibit, even when in serious pain, to keep fighting for their life. She arrived here moving around on broken feet in a fight not to appear weak and vulnerable.
She was beautiful, funny at times, peaceful when alone in her green grass in the sunshine, hissy and mad when we got too close and she felt fear, and in her last few hours with us at her side, she was at a relaxed peace as she labored to breathe and finally slipped into a quiet death.
The dollars that were donated on her behalf will help with her expenses & allow us continue to do what we do here at MaJical Miniatures, which sometimes seems like the impossible, but often really is just 'almost' impossible. There are many magical miracles wandering around this farm every day, and your support and prayers have helped us make that so.
Unfortunately we must still cover the cost of Poppy's expenses. If you would like to help offset the cost of her expenses so that Majical Miniatures does not have to use funds that could help other animals in need please visit: https://www.gulfcoastgives.org/projects/768 and remember we only have two weeks left to fund this fund-raiser or we could lose what has been donated thus far!
