When the decision was taken not to release Wobbly it was for many reasons, when she first arrived she had no visible injures, some broken spines on her head and neck suggested she had been hit by a car.  Her mobility was badly affected and to begin with she could only manage a few steps, the vet put her on a course of steroids and anti inflammatory injections and she made slow but steady progress.  Wobbly spent the winter in the shed, it was planned for her to go to my mums shed but on the day I was going to move her, I was pleasantly surprised to find her curled up in a tight ball hibernating.  When she woke in the spring, we tried her in an outside run, sadly she had still not regained all her mobility she has problems with toppling when trying to get out of tight spots and although she could curl up, when turned on to her back she would lie with her legs pointing up this would leave her vulnerable to attack from curious dogs.   Wobbly was also happy in her run and never made any attempt to dig her way out, so we had to decide what to do with her, I don’t think many people are aware that it is an offence to release an animal into the wild that would be incapable of fending for its self.  I contemplated advertising for a secure garden for her to live in, but would the owner of the garden check daily to see she had not got herself stuck anywhere?  Also what would happen to Wobbly should the owners of her new home go away on holiday as she would need fed every day?
