[Petbunny] Ange/wet nose

[Strachan, S.C.]

 Thanks Ange,
Yep I think I'd better keep an eye on her - it could be any number of

I don't just *love* having it smeared all over my face first thing in
the morning ;o).  The vet may think I'm bonkers but I don't care, its
good to check!

maybe start keeping tissues near robyn's fave spot.
