For those of you that don't know about Bonnie, here is a brief rundown of events:
I found Bonnie on Craigslist in early December. She is just over a year old, and was severely malnourished--she only weighed 329 grams. Her owners were told by the petstore to feed her dried fruit and pellets. When we arrived to see her, she had been out of food and dust for some time.
We brought her home, and put her on acidophilus, simethicone, timmy hay, and Mazuri. I don't believe she had hay before, and her teeth were nearly white from lack of calcium. She was extremely thin and bony, and you could feel her spine sharply on her back. She had chewed much of the fur off her front and hind legs.
She is doing so well--she is up to 430 grams! She has a nice round little belly, and you can't feel her spine sticking out anymore. She's active and sassy!
Here is a picture take shortly after we got her:
And here she is a couple of weeks ago:
