Went back to the vet on monday and he was very surprised that Spice was still alive.As he survived the injection of powerful antibiotics and there is still abit of swelling then he wanted to inject Spice with another big dose tomorrow and possibly one more after that!
I phoned a rodentologist who lives near Great Yarmouth and took Spice to see her today.She doesn"t think that there is any pus in there but said he may be allergic to what the vet sewed him up with....catgut!Apparently piggies can have a reaction to it.I"m going to keep an eye on it and go back to see her if it swells up.
And yes I"m not going to the vet tomorrow.
I feel that Spice is getting better again,I"m so happy but I know he has a long way to go yet.Just wanted to share the news.
 
That is good news :) Hopw Spice continues to do well. Let us know about the catgut, I have not heard of piggies being sewn up with that :-\
