Patient Updates
Disco has made it into a pre-release pool! He will continue to gain weight there and work on his food competition skills.
Disco is a staff favourite. He's just a little bit cross-eyed which adds to his charm. He's just very sweet (and very quiet compared to his noisy neighbours)... and... just watch for yourself!
Hi Disco! What a silly name. The caretakers at MMRC and VanAqua will give you lots of TLC and take good care of you. Stay strong and be brave okay? Sending you love, prayers and hope for a long healthy life. If you and Jitterbug feel better soon I bet ya’ll will have a big party with the other seals named after dances. Be strong little seal friend.
