I have to say it was quite a worrying evening yesterday, seeing Munch not looking well again...but Jenny's brilliant efforts with the warm rugs and towels worked wonders. He dried up really nicely, and I think the warmth helped his tummy to feel better too...a bit like having a hot water bottle! I just can't emphasise how appalling the weather has been. Jenny and I were out at 11pm last night and the rain was flowing straight off the fields, and running like a river through the yard. We left Munch all tucked up with a new warm rug and towel, and he was happily devouring his hay. He even needed an extra helping of hay in his hay-net to get him through the night.
At 2am it had stopped raining but the wind was horrendous. Munch was resting in the stable but somehow his rugs were off and damp on the floor. We'd left some rugs and towels drying on the radiators, and thankfully some had dried enough to put on Munch as he was a bit chilly. At 4.30am all his rugs had stayed in place, and he was warmer again and he'd been having a good amount to eat.
This morning (at a more reasonable time!) I let him out of the stable for a wander, but as soon as he was out, it was raining again...so poor Munch had to go back in again to make sure he stayed warm and dry.
He's remained very cheery and perky all day with a good apetite and is much more alert and back to his normal self....thank goodness...what a worrying few days it's been!
Thank you everyone for all your get well wishes and comments for Munch!
