Oat Hay/ learned hard lesson about feeding it free choice..

[QUOTE=LarkspurCO;8866792]
The aforementioned banned poster publicly admitted to being banned from multiple discussion boards in the past, so was likely very familiar with the warning signs (indeed, most likely did receive warnings from the moderators prior to being banned). Creating a new account prior to that time is not only plausible, it’s expected and predictable.

Don’t overestimate my concern for who believes what (besides which, I know quite a few forum members in real life so I’m not entirely anonymous). I do think it’s interesting to see how far some will stretch their imaginations and work to believe the narrative they have formed. A lot of innocent people are sitting in prison because of this.

Fortunately, no one’s liberty is at stake here.

When I was involved with horse rescues, there always seemed to be a contingent of hoarders who stuck up for one another online. Had their stories never been examined, animals would have continued to suffer. For this reason I find value in listening and reading with a discriminating eye and ear. A bit of skepticism can be a good thing[/QUOTE]

Skeptics are useful.

Vigilantes and zealots are misbegotten

Sadly this thread is no longer about horses or their welfare.

[Crockpot]

You are re-reporting misunderstood information that the OP has tried to clear up

I think you are incorrect .

Not sure why you are taking this so personally.

Take everything you read on the net with a grain of salt. Lots of us have been through things like this before so you get a bit skeptical.

I have not attacked the OP just expressed some concerns-

yes, skeptic.

csaper58, curious why you’re so investing in believing everything the OP has said when so much of it is nonsensical and she’s never produced a shred of evidence that it is true. You’re welcome to believe what you’d like but it seems to me that you’re as invested in insisting this is all real and anyone insisting that it rings false?!

Sometimes questioning a person about what they believe makes them give more thought to what they believe, how they present it and how that effects others.

The OP of this thread lives in a very rural area, the vets available to her may not be the best of the best.

1 old horse given to her was euthed do to complications of untreated Cushings.

1 horse coliced had to be hauled to the clinic for medical management.

3 horses were fed high NSC hay and 2 of them developed laminitis.

1 of the laminitic horse died of an unrelated hemorrhage (possibly exacerbated by the stress of the laminitis).

Given the level of care available to these horses by the OP and her community, I find the events tragic but all too possible. Where I live, horses in outlying areas owned by under-educated and under-funded folks don’t fare much better.

The OP is from the same area, and uses the same colloquialisms as a banned poster.

The OP joined this forum before the banned poster was banned. The banned poster’s alter was also banned.

The moderators have not banned this poster

Judging by her admitted lack of sophistication and education (quite apparent in her posts) I highly doubt this poster is wily enough to out fox the mods.

I believe the mix up of horses, names, and breeds was a beginner’s attempt to disguise her identity and retain some anonymity that became too elaborate for her too sustain.[/QUOTE]

This right here says it all. My vet is a cow vet does a few horses mine are the ones he does. Thank you again.

I have never been banned off any forum because this is the first one i have ever been on.

Tazycat, I’m sure you and your Hubby, and [edited] do your very best for your horses.

I edited my post to remove incorrect information.

WOW. Just wow. To all of this.

But I want to know how the remaining horse is faring!

[QUOTE=Winding Down;8862773]
I have been following with worry and concern and now immense curiosity.

There are more productive uses of time.

I cannot help myself.

OP, if this is for real, I am so sorry about your losses and also perplexed beyond belief that all of these oddities have emerged.

If this isn’t for real I must say I am continually amazed at how personality disorders manifest themselves on the internet.[/QUOTE]

I could not have said it better, nor agree more! Best.Post.On.This.Thread.Winner!

[andhourspass]

Tazycat no matter what is going on I hope you will continue to post and let us know how your 2 horses, as well as you, are doing as you recover from all this.

[invinoveritas]

For the sake of any horses that OP has, I hope she has made all of this up. If she is telling the truth, she is grossly negligent in the deaths of horses.

Only 1 horse died and nothing could of been done,once he started bleeding out his nose. It’s the truth,weather it’s believed or not.

The laminitic horse also died. Keeping a laminitic horse on unrestricted grass, even while treating with Prascend, falls under the umbrella of “grossly negligent.”

[csaper58]

For what it’s worth, ‘grossly negligent’ is defined as…

" a conscious and voluntary disregard of the need to use reasonable care"

That is not applicable in this instance. ‘Tragically under-educated about the disease’ is in all honesty more fitting.

This thread is about the 3 horses the OP owned when it started, of those 1 has died.

Pick all the nits you wish, I think the best way to help the horses is for the OP to be able to access the vast knowledge of this board without fear of further persecution.

The past can not be changed, isn’t it better to use our energies try to shape a more agreeable future?

[Sugarwells]

Hold up. I won’t ever get back those 15 minutes I just spent reading this, so could I get some closure.

I went through like 5 emotions, I earned it.

I had no idea horse wasn’t supposed to be on grass,he lived on pasture with previous owner. I had no knowledge of cushing’s so no not grossly negligent,called didn’t know any better. He was PTS and this happened way before this thread or before i came here.

This thread wasn’t about the cushings horse,who by the way was almost 28 years old. But according to you i was grossly negligent. I try my darndest to take good care of my horses. I’v been degraded and told i’m a previous banned poster…

Might as well just tell me i’m stupid no good person who neglects my horses. Sorry i ever asked for help. I’m just as human as everyone else and i have feelings to.

Edited to add…No need to reply to this thread any more,so let it go now. Thank you!!

[catherines]

I’ve been checking in on this thread since the beginning and WOW just WOw !!
If all of the stuff posted is true then , the OP has the worst luck of any horse owner I’ve ever known.

Colics , surgeries, chokes , laminitis ,(not founder ???). Gutteral pouch hemmorage , hind gut ulcers. Honestly with all of that going on who would have time to be changing horses’s names on a whim?

Crikey she coud write her own book or should be able to by this time with all the knowledge she must have gained dealing with all of this.

Jingling for the remaining horses if they are real… If not then jingling for the OP she needs all the help she can get .
