Save Your Life

Asking for help
is never a sign
of weakness.
It's one of the
bravest things
you can do.
And it can
save your life.
...Lily Collins

Upon closer look, this barn owl carries its head upside down...an anomaly. I don't know what happened to cause this phenomenon. Poor thing!

Luckily, it lives in my vet's barn and actually sought her out for help. The owl has been cooperative and trusting.

My vet has been working with her barn owl, doing massage, physical therapy and exercises to help turn its head back in the correct position…so it can fly properly and find food. So far, she has had some success.

Beautiful owl nonetheless!! It breaks my heart to see this but hopefully your vet will be able to bring about even more progress. God bless her for taking this Owl in and caring for it. Really perplexing how this could have happened?
