Furbabies' Adventures

The funny things my piggies do when it comes to food:
I usually give the first piece of veggy by hand to see if everyone comes to the food and check that they are all eating properly. Of course everypig wants to be the first to be fed so there is always a bit of a commotion at feeding times.

Vicky has the habit of putting her front paws on someone's back (mostly Odi's) when begging for food. When she was smaller that was never a problem but she is getting bigger and heavier. Don't know who much longer Odi will tolerate being stood on. :roll:
 
Billie is master pig in walking backwards. She sometimes does it when I want to pick her up but also in other situations.
Once the way to her favorite hidey was blocked by another piggy and she went backwards at pretty high speed ... nearly the entire length of the cage ... with her piece of cucumber firmly in her mouth. :))

Another pigture of Billie - not happy about having her paw treated.
She might have been thinking about moving out at that moment... :eek:

Yes, we stopped it from getting worse, but that doesn't mean it's good. :(

It takes a long old time to treat poorly paws. It's not getting any worse which is good, hopefully in a while you'll start to see an improvement as the new skin starts to form under the damaged skin and the damaged skin starts to peel off.

It took a long time for Patsy's paws to get better. My vet recommended to rub in some F10 cream once her feet had been dried. Other vets recommend Sudocream. Has your vet mentioned putting anything on Billie's foot after her salt bath?
 
I'm treating her with Bepanthen plus and sometimes Betaisodona. It's a bit hard to compair the remedies used because there are different things available in the UK and Austria.
