Eriathwens piggies

So this was slightly unexpected, but we collected little Mabel this morning. She is 4 years 3 months, free to good home after her 2 friends died, and the child no longer bothered with them anymore.

Initially she seemed in good condition but after a hands on health check when I got home, her nails are overgrown, she's a little snuffly and she has crusty nipples, I'm hoping however it's just dirt.

I have a vet appointment later, hopefully he doesn't mind me bringing her along 😅
She reminds me a great deal of Thistle, both in looks and situation.
She's absolutely huge bless her.

Shes loving the bathmats bless her, shes passed a few soft poops, I'm not sure how much hay she had apart from the handful in a rack, but I doubt it'll take long to fix that. Plenty hay here! Shes also got dualcare pellets and probiotic pellets.

Called it, she has a large ovarian cyst on each ovary and is booked to be spayed on the 10th, gives me time to get some condition on her, get her pooing and settled in. Bless her, shes had a long day.

Oh poor little lady, I’m sure she will bounce back after her op and feel much better
 
Thankyou ☺ I'm not sure she would quite agree with you just yet! Poor thing has been in and out of cars, poked and prodded all day. She isnt too sure of what half her veggie dinner consists of, but she was happy to see a big pile of food regardless, and her poops are already much better, I'd agree with my vet that it was likely stress causing her not to pass any, and the small few she did were soft.
 
She must be feeling nice and safe with you, I bet she’s really feeling the difference.
 
Poor old Delilah has got herself a patch of ringworm on her side, I'd imagine from the stress of the fireworks from the carnival we had a couple of weeks back 🙄 bless her, shes made no fuss about it at all but it certainly looks sore! Of course the colour of her skin makes it look bruised but she's just chocolate pigmented 😅 luckily the oral and topical antifungal have been working and there's already improvement from Thursday. The dry clumps of skin and hair have almost all fallen out so while the patch is larger now, it isnt particularly flakey, she didn't want a picture taken today so these are yesterday and the day before.

Hopefully she starts growing hair back soon!
