Maude has decided she’s not really that fussed about having eyeballs. All she needs is a nose to smell food with.
Maude has had a record amount of hay pokes I’ve know any pig to get.
Tonight I discovered her with her eyeball completely coloured over.
I prized out two small hay seeds, washed with colloidal silver, applied antibiotic eye drops (left over from last time ). And gave her a dose of metacam for any inflammation and pain relief.
She’s really done a good’n this time around.. Tomorrow is Sunday. If there is no improvement by my day off on Tuesday I’ll take her to the vet. And of course keep treating it until then.
Maude wasted NO time is getting back to biscuit (pellet) eating as soon as I popped her back into her cage. As I said..she really couldn’t care less about her eyes..clearly!

Can someone please tell her to stop burrowing so deep into the hay please! Even if she doesn’t like her eyes..I do!



“What’s all the fuss slave? This eye still works..just” … “Now leave me in peace to eat my biscuits”

 

[Siikibam]

Oh dear Maude! We know you love to go burrowing but can you maybe close your eyes?!

Hope her eye is better soon. That does look bad! And she looks like she had fun doing it

 

[RedLoredAmazon]

She needs swim goggles to keep her eyes safe when diving in the hay.

 

[weepweeps]

Poor Maude. Hope it heals quickly

 

[Merab]

Poor Maude.
Hope they eye heals quickly

 

[Roselina]

Oh Maude ….listen to your slave she does know best
Hope your eyes get better asap

 

[Hannah_xx]

Maude eye is healing, I think. It’s still totally cloudy, but not weeping and it’s always open.
It’s hard to get a photo because she just wants food..


Unfortunately even if I wanted to take her to the vet I can’t! Jon and I have both got stupid C*vid

 

[Roselina]

Oh no I hope you’re both ok and managing covid
Maud’s eye is looking better and being very vigilant you spotted it quickly !
It just takes time doesn’t it
Wishing you both and lovely Maud a speedy recovery

 

[Siikibam]

Oh no! Hope you both start to feel better soon. Glad Maude is getting better.

 

[weepweeps]

Hope you are both ok.

 

[Merab]

Sorry you and Jon have Covid.
Hope it’s just a mild case and you both recover quickly.
Glad that Maude’s eye is on the mend

 

[Hannah_xx]

Thank you everyone, thankfully it was much much more mild than the first time we had it last year.
This time it felt like just a bad cold. Feeling much better today!
Maudes eye is healing up great too!

Here is Fergus’s head looking out while we sat down to do some birdwatching on our walk today

 

[Merab]

Glad you’re feeling better now

 

[Roselina]

Yes it’s good to know you’re both recovering well - cannot beat getting outside with nature

 

[Hannah_xx]

Hello everyone!
Maudes eye recovered well, she’s back to her normal strange eyeball with Ocular heterotopic bone formation. (She likes to be different you see..)


Here she is with Henry. They absolutely love this bunk bed, it’s their favourite place to chill.


And here is Little Olive, also very chill in bed..


Here is Lion and Emily during floortime last week.


And Lion looking cutie patootie..


Here is Wolfie checking out a fresh botttlebrush branch..


Lucy, melting my heat as always..


Chickens getting up to mischief..


And the wet and soggy horses one day last week..

 

[Hannah_xx]

I only cleaned them out them out the day before.. why do they have to make such a mess?!
(Apart from the MESS..it’s cute that Henry is cleaning Maudes eye in this photo)


I’ve been having a little bit of lap time with Newton lately, as he’s the only one who genuinely doesn’t seem to mind it. He will stretch his front legs out or curl up and get comfortable. And even does yawns on my lap


Ultra close up when he stretched forward!


And Newton in his house, because he’s so handsome with his funny long hair.

Dear Henry and Maude

What is your slave saying? Your cage is a "MESS" ? It looks fine to me! Doesn't she realise that you've been very creative to get your cage just how you want it? Is it her cage? Does she live in it? Er .....NO. You can have your cage looking just how you like it - you live there. It isn't right when Slaves clean out your cage when you've worked so hard to get it to smell and look just so.

Ignore what your Slave says about you being messy - you aren't.

Yours very annoyed on your behalf

Dear Miss Bramble,
Finally someone who understands the ‘Beauty of Mess’. We try so hard to arrange our house just the way we like it. Myself, Maude especially likes to chuck hay onto the floor out of the hay tray. That way I can find the hay seeds and get them in my eye (Then I get extra attention). And Henry well he loves to throw our poop all over the place and just generally redesign all the furniture that slave puts in such as knocking over boxes or turning hideys into boats.

Thank you for your encouragement, we shall continue to protest each time slave tries to do the housework.
Yours thankfully,
Maude and Henry.

 

[Hannah_xx]

Guess who has messed their eyeball up ONCE AGAIN!?!…

Yes MAUDE!

Trip to the vet with it this time as I couldn’t find hay in it and I was sure it had Ulcered.

A good poke and yes ulcer.

Oh Maude..when will you behave?


Naturally I reward her with grass..

 

[weepweeps]

Oh Miss Maude! When will you learn you don’t have to nearly blind yourself to get grass.

Hope it clears up quickly.

 

[Merab]

Oh Miss Maude - what a silly piggy.

Hope the eye heals quickly

 

[Roselina]

Oh dear Maudie what are you doing
Hopefully the eye gets back to normal

I know I already done an introduction on a separate thread for the newbie, But I’ll do one on here as well for anyone new reading my thread.
Meet Buttons. A 2 year old (Swiss?) female, full of confidence and ever so cute.
She was given to me by a beautiful and kind family who just wanted to do right by her after she lost her cage mate a while back.

She slotted into Lion and Emily’s lives quite well with pretty much no dramas. Which made a pleasant change!
Emily really likes her and Lion is feeling cheeky enough to start winding her up a little.
Tonight she’s had floortime for the first time at my house and she’s had great fun!

 

[Roselina]

Omg she’s lovely - Emily and Lion are
