She’s home and I’ve seperated her and moo. She needs to rest and won’t get peace of moo.
They see each other and will settle soon

She’s on tons meds normal stuff metacam

Liquid paracetamol
I have to clean outa wound salty water to help.
It looks bad and hope to fix her

Poor Mavis, that looks so sore. Glad to hear she is back home.....hope she recovers quickly now that she has got lots of meds.

 

[David Piggie Lover]

I’m happy to post pictures of her wound
It’s horrible and don’t want to offend
If I get say 10 yes on this message I will.
I’m taking them as vet want regular updates x

 

[weepweeps]

Yes. I’d like to see.

 

[Lady Kelly]

Oh bless her. Sending healing wheeks. Come on Mavis, leave it alone now and let it heal

 

[munchmonster]

How horrible for poor Mavis. I hope she recovers soon as it must be such a worry for you. I don't mind seeing her progress in pictures and send many positive vibes your way. Take care of yourself along the way x

 

[Wheekallweek]

Aw poor Mavis Hopefully she'll leave it alone and it will heal nicely. At least she's covered by the antibiotics and pain relief too

 

[Zanzan]

I would like to see the pictures, it's interesting to see how it goes. Certainly not offended. And love to your ladies

 

[ScrufflesRules]

Feel free to post photos, it's important to document the evidence for people going through the same situation with other piggies too.
Sending well wishes

 

[David Piggie Lover]

Pictures to show

This is after op
Then 10 days after stitches came out possibly by piggie

Back to vets as course she needed help
So yesterday she had a sleep whilst cleaned it etc.
THEN WOW THIS GOT ME

Poor Mavis hardly moan or squeak in pain.
So started her treatment
Medication and I have to clean and apply cream which on a wiggly one is fun but I have patients and go at her speed.
Well happy this am
Should took photo before cream but o think looks better

 

[David Piggie Lover]

She’s having a hour with Moo

So sorry David, don’t know how I missed poor Mavis’s further problem. Sending loads of healing vibes to her and Hope Mrs Dougal is ok now.
I think her wound is looking loads better, the wound is a better and healthier colour now. Hang in their David you are doing a great job

 

[VickiA]

That is such an awkward place for stitches as it’s so near the arm/shoulder. What a cheeky pig guy pulling them out. That would looks lovely and clean and healthy now the vet has cleaned it out. I’m guessing it’s being left open to heal from the inside out. Hopefully with your TLC and the meds it will stay lovely and clean and close gently for her. She is in the best hands.

 

[weepweeps]

Looking much healthier now. Poor brave girl. Fingers crossed for a speedy recovery.

It’s hard but I promise to look after them and that’s the deal.
Mrs Dougal is old and well she’s ok not active but comfortable xx

Thank you Vicki
Yes was a bad place to stitches but crap happens
They couldn’t re stitch as apparently it started to heal
So I believe this is called a secondary wound. Xx

 

[Bertie & Jelly]

Oh Mavis that’s some wound. Hope the Flamazine does the trick. i used it when my horse had a un-stitchable wound - worked wonders. Love to Mavis x

[David Piggie Lover]

Good morning friends.
Sorry not replied as I should have.
Well between US and I mean that as being single I need help tlc which I received tho you guys on here we managed to get MAVIS better.
Looks a lot better and she’s off meds etc bit cream when human allowed.
Vet and staff are pls with her. (so is NatWest)
We cuddle a little now which was a no no before.
The photo above was taken 8 am today.

Her and Moo daughter are together full time now and SERIOUSLY never stop chattering moaning talking all the bloody time. Last night I shouted from bed room at 2am to shut up and sleep.
Honestly 24/7 last 3 days nights
