Bandito's Update - Day 60 - after being rescued from death trap of neglect & starvation!


This is Bandito, eating hay this morning in his dry lot...soon, we hope, he will be moved onto grass in one of the pastures for very small periods of time...for now he eats hay all day long!

He is recovering from liver damage, is eating 2 big scoops of senior feed twice a day, is eating hay stretcher once a day and has clean water all day long.

He is mostly hairless along his topline and down his barrel...but new, soft hair is slowly, sssoooooo slowly growing in!

Click here to see his arrival day, 30 minutes after being rescued from the death trap that he and Gee (Gee did not survive and starved to death next to Bandito) were in...you can see the VAST improvement in only 60 days!!

Bandito's Fund Page is here. Thank you to everyone who has donated to him, prayed for him and visited him to give him love and support...thank you...

Bandito - Starved & Left For Dead - Now Recovering!


These are photos from yesterday morning of Bandito's left side...as you can see the hair is gone...we gave him a bubble/medicated (SSSHHH...he didn't know there were meds in there lol) bath on Sunday. (The other side is the same - no hair)

It was oozing and doing some really freaky stuff (my vet would be writhing if he saw me describe it in these terms) and we decided to use an anti-fungal shampoo. Evidently, it worked wonders!

The hair is now dry, no oozing and I was able to lightly use my hands to remove the dead hair and WOW it smelled terrible!

It now appears that new hair is growing in and it's all smooth and shiny!

We have set up a page specifically for Bandito's Fund.

This page will accept donations quickly and securely for anyone who wants to donate to his care and recovery.
Big thanks to everyone who is helping this guy recover!

He is still painfully thin, but I do believe the prayers and good wishes and visitors are helping his spirits!

Thanks for helping us help Bandito!
