Murphy was back at the vets today after i got home last night he was off his back legs. Due to not eating properly i thought it could be he is low it Vit C.
He was not himself last night as even though he has been off his food and had the heaving hicups he has been himself.
Hicups have now gone no fluid coming up now. Just off the food eating but very small amounts. Drinking as normal.
OH was at home with him this am and decided to take him into the girls run in his carrier so they could see each other but not get to each other. Well how he has picked him up seems like a different piggy from the one last night!
Vet checked him again still cant find anything wrong so she decided to put him on Science Recovery syringe feed every two hours to build him up. He has also got Vit C drops to put in his water bottle.
Is it mad to think that he could be off his food as he is lonely, because he is fostered i dont know if he is used to being with another piggy as he came in the RSPCA on his own?
Also Science Recovery question it says to feed every two hours forgot to ask the vet if i need to feed him in the night. Any thoughts dont mind if it does mean that as i will do that to get him back to full health.
Will be a nightmare at work if I'm tired but heh he is worth it lol.
