Hi steemit.

This is Elma my little lab.

She was quite nervous when I returned home she wouldn't even fetch her ball.for a lab that is the point when you realize something is going on.

After several attempts she gives me this look

So I though she was hungry.I put my camera down and went inside to check her bowl for food and water.Then I heard a fight from outside.a dog cat fight I dropped everything,dashed outside to see what was all that about.I have 3 cats on my backyard that are strays,I do feed them and all and they do just fine with Elma,they never had a conflict for the last 5 months since she was a cub. I find her barging at the cats in a corner on my yard.it seems that the cats have found a delicious treat, A young female Blackbird.

Day1

She made it out alive with just some scratches and a hurt ego.If it wasn't for Elma she wouldn't be that lucky!

I put her an old shirt for her to feel cozy and cut her some fruits to feed her.She wouldn't eat anything for the first 8 hours.she was really scared I let her be for the night in dark room free to wonder around.

Day2

I went to the pet shop to find out what she needs to survive first thing in the morning.the pet shop owner suggest me worms fruits and small insects for her diet.worms be the most beneficial for her age because they are so full of proteins.

She still was refusing to eat from me so I thought out a trick to full her and make her feel more comfortable.A little search on youtube and voila.Feeding sounds from blackbird cheeks.
