Pleasure of Their Company: A Memoir: Adventures in Hand-Raising Orphan
Fawns
by: Hubbrad, Cynthia
Relates the story of the author’s nearly twenty-year journey hand-raising
orphan fawns in her barn in the hills of West Virginia, and the unique
relationships and bonds that developed with these gentlest of creatures.
Who could imagine lying down in a barn stall with a week-old, five-pound
fawn curled up alongside; or being invited to play by a fawn, and by that
same fawn after release and when grown into a 100-pound buck; or sedating
that 100-pound buck, playing Operating Room Nurse while the Veterinarian
neutered him, and then Recovery Room Nurse to monitor him as he came out
of the anesthetic; or having a fawn grow up and bring her own fawns around
to introduce them; or patrolling the woods on horseback during hunting
season to protect released fawns? The author couldn’t have imagined
any of this, but was blessed to know such treasured experiences. The readers
will get to experience all of these as well, and more, as they journey
along on the adventures, through the chronicles of each fawn’s history
and photographs taken during each hand-raising and after release. 250
pgs.
