Augustus is Awake

March 11, 2017

Yesterday, I put Augustus back out into his "winter hut" and opened the door.  He remained asleep.  Today, I opened his door and he had his eyes open, and a little while later, he was in front of his hut.  We offered him dandelions which he accepted.

I took him over to the vet and he weighs exactly the same as he did when he went down on September 30th.  He might go back to sleep a few more times before 'staying up' all summer.  I guess Spring is here!
