Can i just say without putting a dampner on things Thumbelina is a DWARF mini, meaning she is deformed. Although she appears cute she will have many health problems. I appreciate her owners are possibly doing all they can for her but i do not agree with advertising her as something that is normal. Here is a site to help you get the gist of what i mean.

Dwarfism

Sorry once again dont mean to sound like a stick in the mud.

Edited to say this was not aimed at anyone in particular Dieseldog
