Eriathwens piggies

Thanks! I had some beechams syrup stuff.. not sure if it was the paracetamol or the 19% ethanol 😂😂 but I'm feeling quite a bit better now lol

Tilly has some steroid eye drops, she had them a few years ago and they helped, her ear was cysts, and her weight loss we aren't too concerned about as she regained it so quickly. Her teeth are still perfect at least.

He couldn't quite believe Panda had passed that stone, to be fair it made my eyes water a bit when I took it out. There's the possibility she has another one or 2 in her bladder, but as she's able to pass them, has no pain at all, and is peeing fine we're going to wait and see what she does for now.

I've been instructed to stop looking at them so closely and finding weird things 😅 but at least that went reasonable well, just carry on monitoring them for now.
 
Thankyou!

I'm extremely pleased with Ebony tonight, shes doing almost conpletely normal poops and lots of them, she is only getting 1 syringe feed a day and is now on 12 hourly emeprid not 8.
She weighed 680g when I noticed she had stopped eating, 700g at her appointment Friday and stayed there for quite a while in spite of all the syringe feeding, but now, all by herself she's up almost 60g tonight! I'd say the gabapentin is really kicking in and helping. I actually have no alarms set tonight, so hopefully I can catch up on sleep 😅

So I had put some consideration into what I was going to do with Paddingtons 4 ladies.. since his passing, Bella, Bailey, Biscuit and Poppet had been bickering and fighting. The entire reason that group existed was because they didn't get along with the other groups so merging hasn't been an option.

I decided I was going to be keeping an eye out for a new male for them. Yesterday I saw this absolutely gorgeous little chap, and after some thought, I went back today to adopt him. He will need neutering first, but once he's sorted then he will be their new husboar!

He is so far unamed, but he is 17 weeks old, he was 1 of 4 but unfortunately was bullied and beaten up. His little nose and ear still has the scars to prove it! But he is very, very sweet. We had a quick cuddle before putting him into his cage and he chilled out very quickly.

Hes certainly making himself known! Very eager to get to the others, chewing the bars 🤦‍♀️

We've had Charlie, Monty, Rusty, Eddie and Wilson shortlisted but none seem to suit him just yet. I do like Sandy, unfortunately that was my best friend's Labradors name who they had to let go last year so I'd feel a bit mean using the name so soon.
 
Aw poor Micah! Such a shame when they get bullied.
Hes certainly a brave little man, he has already screamed at me for food! And will happily sniff the air while I talk to him.
It's so lovely having a roan again, they've always been a favourite of mine and having lost Daisy, Misty and Clover..had none left. I didn't even notice he was a roan until they went to pick him up. I was already sold on his beautiful dark eyes and lovely crest 😍

So he's currently in quarantine in my bedroom.. I woke up to this little face this morning 🤣
I made the mistake of feeding the goldfish loudly, he assumed the rustling packet of pellets was for him and started screaming, so of course I had to find him some forage to eat. And of course have a sneaky cuddle 😅

So, Dylan likes to scream at 3am 😂😂 good job I'm used to not sleeping or I'd find it less funny, but hes an odd little man! Luckily he seems in good health, I need to collect some gabapentin tomorrow from the vet so I'll ask about my vets availability for having him neutered after a good check over.

Silver wanted a cuddle after his meds, I never thought he would get big enough where holding him in one hand was a struggle 😅

Well.. I think we may have already bonded 😂 just look at his face! He is still a little nervous but he clearly knows who brings the food.

Whether he still loves me once his balls are gone will remain to be seen, but hopefully he will forgive me when he gets to meet his ladies 😅

What a gorgeous picture, he loves you. I'm sure he will forgive you for his little op once he meets his ladies.
 
Oh he is a chonk 😍 he has settled so well in such a short space of time. Silver is looking so gorgeous too, what lovely boars
 
What a lovely piggy - he’s already fitting into the ‘family’ very well. ❤️
