Cairo is back and very very well. Had his treatment and is again cancer free. He is now one of the longest term patients with the AHT as he has been back and forth since 1992.

I think we may have bought home a changling (the AHT yard staf didn't want to give up their "yard mascot" and they may have swopped him when we were not looking.

On return, he escaped, galloped to the field as I ran after him - did several ciruits with his heels in the air. That night threw out his feed bowls, dug up a strip of rubber mat and put it in his water bucket, took down and threw round the yard his rugs outside the stable and pulled down the rugs inside the stable and trampled them.

Following morning dragged poor YO to the field who only just managed to unclip the rope before he was gone like a flash.

He kicks the door and bellows if not given immediate attention - get the impression he has been thoroughly spolit whilst away.

Chancer is so happy to have him back, as is my OH who has turned back into a human being. Amazing how one old horse can be such a huge part in your life.
 
Great that he is back

Yep think you have summed it up. I said he could be given 50 - 50 hay and hayledge, but the girls said he made it clear he only wanted their hayledge

He was also allowed out in their paddocks, taken for walks and given treats.

They were very sad to see him go - said he is the best horse they have ever had to treat and look after as he is so good.

King Cairo it is.
 
Yay fantastic news I was wondering how he was getting on.

Don't let him hear you calling him King Cairo he's behaviour will get worse

Sounds like he is beside himself with excitement to be back. What a relief that he has come through GA and treatment so well.
