So sad

Poor little Shakespeare took a turn for the worse yesterday - high temperature and loss of appetite.

Lee took him to the vet and they found that now he had fluid in the lungs as well - dosed him with antibiotics etc. He was put back in the shade in a field with his mum and when they checked on him an hour later he had died.

He really fought hard and we did all we could for him.

Most upsetting afterwards, was the fact that the mum kept jumping over the fences to go back to where he had been - how can one not love such animals!

The vet will do a full post-mortem and I'll let you know the results.
