Sick bird

Our poor Reepicheep is not doing so well today. We think he might die - it’s touch and go whether he makes it through the night. We don’t know what has happened, other than that he hasn’t been eating enough. It seems that he’s not strong enough to hold his body up, so instead of standing on his legs with his head all perky, he lies on his whole body with his wings spread out on either side. It’s a pathetic sight and we’re very sad. I found three mackerels at the Fish Market, but it might be too late to put them to use. He wasn’t even interested in those today! Of course we’ve all been praying incessantly, but God might have other plans than Reepi’s survival.
