Betsy
Anniversary Herd
Thanks
Aw, poor Betsy, hope she makes a sound recovery, she must have been so uncomfortable xJust heard back from the vet. Betsy has come round from her 2 hour spay. The ovaries were HUGE 7cms on both sides and very round . No wonder the poor girl was uncomfortable and moody! She hasn't eaten anything as yet so that's the next hurdle to get over. Hopefully she will get over this operation and will be my Ever Beautiful Betsy once more.
I know, I couldn't believe it when they told me that they were THAT big. No wonder she screamed whenever I picked her up.Oh my goodness that is a huge size for ovaries! I bet she will be feeling so much better with those removed. Here's to a speedy and uneventful recovery for her so she's back to her old self in no time
Good news that there are poops and wees already! She'll probably need to sleep off the anaesthetic a bit, hopefully she'll get her appetite back by tomorrow xOH and I went to collect Betsy a couple of hours ago. Here she is in the hospital cage.

I did try to syringe feed her but she didn't really want it. The vet nurse said she had been syringe fed her so I reckon that Betsy had just been fed before I picked her up. She has done plenty of poops and has wee'd to so happy with that.
I'll try feeding her at 10pm. She took her medicine alright. I'm hoping she's not eating that much cos she is still feeling a bit woozy.Good news that there are poops and wees already! She'll probably need to sleep off the anaesthetic a bit, hopefully she'll get her appetite back by tomorrow x
I know! They sure like to worry their Mummy!So glad Betsy is back home and hope she is feeling better soon.
Such massive surgery for a small piggy.
Your little piggies never seem to do surgery by halves. What with Christian 's massive abscess and now Betsy's huge ovaries.
Come on Betsy munch up for mummy.
Sending healing hugs to you and Meg.xx
