Robin & Marian

These two cuties are Robin and Marian, formerly known as Robin Hood and Maid Marian. They came from a household that had small children who teased them. They were both biters when Cathy took them in, but Marian has since stopped. Robin is doing much better now, and Cathy and family are still working with him!!!

UPDATE:February 13th, 2005

Marian has been battling cancer since April of last year. Up until the last week, she seemed to feel fine. Still ran--Still explored. Just had the tumors in her stomach...She has been adrenal for over a year as well, and on medical management.Her appetite has been very good up until yesterday. She decided it was time. I`ll always remember the way Marian would stand at the water dish. She would dump a mouthfull of water on whomever was near her, & proceed to groom them! It was the sweetest thing. She was the most nurturing fertie I have ever known. It has been a wonderful four years. I will miss her terribly....

Love, Zoo

Update Mar 20, 2005:

Robin is still a member of Funlovers group. He shows no health problems at this time. He has stopped biting the regular caregivers, but isn`t totally trustworthy with all visitors. Robin hasn`t changed much in the past couple years, except for a little weight loss. He continues to thrive.

More later!
