Betsy's Guinea Pigs

So gorgeous! I’ve never given fresh roses either, dried petals for chins and the odd sprinkle for piggies. Must go and raid my mum’s garden soon as looked like a hit! :)

The rose needs to be unsprayed. And it should only ever be a very occasional treat; but a rose bloom past its best is fun to nibble and to take apart. ;)

It was unsprayed and they have never had roses before. They were past their best too which was even more fun.
 
Dennis is happy to let all his friends and fans know that his weight is over 1kg now. He is a very happy boy just living with his wifelet Betsy. He knows it has taken a while since him and Betsy were separated from the other 3 but he has now reached his maximum weight.

Well done Dennis! I wish little Puggle could reach a kilo, we got her to 980g but then she bloated again...
 
Poor little Puggle.
Phoebe says they do the opposite of Weightwatchers when she comes to visit and see who can gain the most weight in a week.
She’s heard of something called chocolate which apparently works well on humans but she’s not been given any

I have plenty readigrass if that might help :) and porridge oats and grated sweet potato!
 
Just come back from the Vet this time with Velvet. She has a swollen conjunctiva. While she was there she very helpfully did a HUGE wee on the examination table which was a bit gritty with bladder sludge. She has been prescribed 1 drop of Isathal twice a day, 0.22ml Metacam twice a day for 5 days and as much water as I can syringe into her twice a day to try and flush out that bladder. So no more kale, spinach or celery leaves for Velvet ever again.

Poor Velvet! Hope her eye and bladder are ok, at least she helpfully revealed the bladder sludge while there was an expert witness! Healing wheeks x
 
Poor Velvet! I didn't realise celery was high in calcium. Good to know!
 
She seems alright in herself and bimbling around as usual. She had around 8ml of water this morning :yikes: The bottles on the hutch were filled up yesterday so it's not that there isn't any water on offer. She usually drinks alot anyway. Maybe as the weather is getting hotter she hasn't fully got the idea of drinking more.
