This Saturday is my aunts birthday. She is in the nursing home here with a very rare form of cancer. I am planning on taking one of our 5 mos old colts to see her. I hope she will make it this long since she has requested them to remove her feeding tube. I would really like the mini to help brighten her day some.
Anyway what do you guys do with them before taking them to see the residents as far as cleaning them, etc? I know the colt we are taking will do ok in the situation as have had him out on several different outings. But I really don't want to give him a bath since it is cold out. Do you just brush them out really good and maybe wash their hooves? Oh yes we did get an old innertube to make booties out of for him, so he won't slip on the floors.
Was curious as what you guys do to prepare them? Have gotten permission from the Activity Director to make this a monthly affair - should be fun. So I really do want to know what you all do to them.
Thanks a bunch!
