Goodbye, Mr Fips.

Fips and his new carer, Simone. She will finish his rehab and be the one to open his cage door on that last day.
Fips and Simone

It's been an interesting 8 months.

Awwwwww! Bye, Fips - go be an echidna!

That's what Simone is teaching him.

Go, Fips! And go Den! I hope you feel the warm glow of a job well done!

I am rather pleased with myself. I'd pat myself on the back but I'd have to take some glucosomine and ibuprophin first. (I have this shoulder.)

Thanks... my ten-year-old son Kevin has been avidly watching Fips's progress and likes the photos (over the past months).

He is welcome to use any of my photos if he needs them for school. I'm just happy to spread the word that Australia has more than kangaroos and koalas.

Hooray!!
Fips is off to life!
I'm sure it will be a long and spiky rampage!:D

You know, I didn't think he would make it when you first got him. Now he's all grown and ready to go be an echidna in the wild. Go, Mr. Fips!

He was such a tiny little thing. Plus he ate almost nothing for the first two weeks, but then there was no stopping him.

Waydigo, mate! You did an awesome job with that guy.

Is Simone going to teach him how to fly with a bat?

Have the best

That's hedgehogs you're thinking of.

Ah, I thought they were more closely related.

They're both insectivorous mammals. That's about as close as it gets.

And spiky...

Well done, Batty. Farewell Fips, have a good and long life.

[identity profile] silmaril.livejournal.com 2007-06-04 02:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Go forth and prosper, Fips.

Thanks for letting us share every step of the way, [livejournal.com profile] dewhitton. Who'd have thought I would be cheering for the first slurpage of an echidna on the other side of the world?

_\\|| Peace and long life!
