Hi everyone,
My boar Charlie has not eaten today. He only had 2 bites of a piece of romaine lettuce. He has a vet appointment tomorrow morning but he is declining quickly… I have tried to syringe feed him but he will not chew or swallow the food and I am worried about choking him. There are also no stores near me that carry the oxbow critical care, so I had to use pellets and water. He has become really wobbly and is barely able to walk… After setting him back down he wasn’t able to get his legs back underneath him without help and struggled to get to his favorite hidey place. There are no emergency vets in my area. The closest is about a 3.5 hour drive and I am unsure on if they even see small animals. I am at a complete loss… I don’t know if he’ll make it through the night. He appears to be bloated but I cannot see any impacted poop in his butt. I am worried to massage his tummy because I don’t want to hurt him. What do I do?
