The story of Wildcat's Elfin Sky!
When his mother had Elfie, he was born under a boat - he could not get to his mother and she could not get to him. Many hours passed before he was discovered. By the time he was found, the mare rejected him and would not allow him to nurse. They were able to get some mother's milk in him but not enough. He was given to Lynn to try and bottle raise him along with the help of Joanne and members of the Pony Pines farm and 4 H club. Joanne did the day shift and Lynn did the night shift. He did really well for about the first week but then started slipping backwards. Dr. Daryl Insley tried what he could to help him but after 10 days, Elfie could no longer stand. The decision was made not to make him suffer any more. :o(
In the short 10 days of his life, he touched a lot of hearts and brother together a lot of folks who followed his story on FB.
They nick named him Elfie because his little ears were ELFED shaped!
