We are celebrating 9 years married tomorrow. Time flies so fast! Pity we couldn't do anything or go anywhere. The only exciting thing tomorrow is just the Tesco delivery.

So lovely to see Rocky back to his normal self, nibbling away x

 

[anyar.dris]

Looks like Rocky is starting to have problems with his teeth again.

I weighed him on Sunday and he was just 1370g (down from 1436g a couple of days before). He had a bit of a soft poo that day so we let it pass for another 2 days to get better. I weighed him every morning and also at night to make sure he has eaten for the day, and he managed to get back up his weight to 1420g at night on Monday and Tuesday. This morning, I weighed him and he was 1363g. He also didn't eat when I gave them their morning food. He hasn't been eating the grass that we've been cutting and thought he just didn't like it coz Sierra and Vegas didn't eat much as well. So gave him a CC top up and also 0.3ml of Metacam. After a couple of hours, he started eating whatever we put in front of him. He's still eating now. We are thinking the metacam did the trick of whatever he was feeling.

I called Cat & Rabbit even if I know that Simon and Kim are on holiday for 2 weeks and Rocky's booked in to see Simon on 15th April. We are hoping that Metacam will help him to eat for the mean time that we are waiting for Simon and Kim to get back. If not, we would have to take him to Ellie Whitehead just to see if it's just have to be a simple filing of his back teeth.

Rocky: Yeeeesss mummy, I've been eating my grass! Now don't you worry!



Rocky weighed 1439g before bed time (after giving him his Metacam and before having the last night treats of grass. So he's been eating the whole day, from being 1363g this morning.

 

[Siikibam]

I hope you start eating again soon Rocky.

 

[alpacasqueak]

Sorry gorgeous Rocky’s teeth seem to be playing up again Hope he does ok until you get to C&R Keep munching Rocky boy xx

 

[Bradshaw Piggies]

Sorry to hear Rocky is having teeth problems again. All the best for when you get to C&R to see the wonderful Simon/Kim. Thinking of you both

 

[Merab]

Keep eating Rocky - you have to keep up your status as a handsome and chunky boar.

 

[anyar.dris]

Thanks all! ❤ Fingers crossed the Metacam would delay more of the problem and would keep Rocky eating until he gets seen by Simon and Kim and enough to grind his teeth down. We don't really want him to be seen by another vet but if it gets worse, we have no choice because his appointment is still 2 weeks away. As of now, he is still eating, even though the weight has gone down a bit. He weighed 1398g this morning, so I didn't really have to give him any CC top up.

 

[anyar.dris]

Rocky wouldn't make it to his appointment at C&R on 15th April. He stopped eating on Sunday and we are feeding him CC all day since then. We called Derwent Vets to make appointment for Ellie Whitehead but she's also on holiday and won't be back until the 12th April. So we have no choice but to go to other vets that doesn't do conscious dental. Rocky is booked at Cheshire Pets in Holmes Chapel to see Cristian on Thusday morning. Fingers crossed it will just be an easy filing of back teeth and nothing major.

 

[alpacasqueak]

Oh no, so sorry to hear that @anyar.dris, poor little Rocky boy Really hope you’re ok and not too shattered syringe feeding Hope your gorgeous boy is ok too
These things always happen when Simon’s on holiday, the chins would always seem to need him when he was off! Really hope it goes well, sorry he cant have a conscious dental but really hope he feels better and starts eating after he sees the vet.
Massive hugs to you and Rocky and Luigi sends you a big kiss x

Thank you! He weighed 1360g this morning. Not a bad weight if you think about it, but he normally weighs 1450g. So that's really a big loss in one week. He still eats when we are hand feeding him but you can see he wants to eat hay but he can't. He keeps on pulling the hay but ends up dropping it eventually coz he can't chew it. We just make sure he can eat grass and everything else as much as possible.

 

[Bill & Ted]

Aw, what a shame, things always tend to go wrong when Simon and Kim are away, it’s always a worry. Hoping Rocky’s appt at Cheshire Pets goes well for him x

Aah bless him poor lad, yeah that’d worry me loads with my big boy too, a lot in a week for him. It’s so frustrating for them when they try and can’t manage the hay, poor boy but I bet he’s still enjoying his grass. Hope he keeps this weight on and good luck for Thursday, we’ll keep our fingers, toes and wonky paws crossed for him ❤x

Yeah he gets frustrated. He goes in every food bowls as well and he can't eat loads. He tries though and can only eat melons and cucumber by himself coz it's soft. So he mainly eats veggies at the moment and we even had to make the salad leaves into strips for him.

Poor little man, Pedro used to be like that, he ate so much hay before he lost the eye and he was so confused after why it wouldn’t go in, he’d search the cage for it in case there was some that would! So sad to watch but hopefully he’ll be back eating it again by the wknd And feeling much better. Hope his girlies are looking after him x
