Lovelypiggies
New Born Pup
A couple of days ago I went to feed my piggies and noticed that one of them had a head tilt (she had been fine in the morning only a couple of hours earlier). I took her to the vets as soon as possible and they gave me antibiotics to treat what they suspected was an ear infection. When we got back, I noticed that she couldn’t walk properly and was quite wobbly but still managed to get around (which could be a sign of an ear infection too). She’s now had two doses of antibiotics (out of 10 total doses so not expecting to see much difference yet) however I’m concerned that she’s had a stroke rather than just having an infection. I also don’t think she’s drinking water so I’ve been giving her lots of watery food (cucumber etc.) and trying to syringe feed her water. This is the only thing I’m really concerned about as apart from that, she seems quite happy and is still loving her food and her hay. She is 6 years old so quite elderly but she hasn’t ever been ill before. Does anyone think this seems more like a stroke rather than an ear infection?
