Survivors Group Therapy

Hi everyone, I let mom's nephews hold me and they said I was soft. One said I was tired and mom didn't have the heart to say I just might be a little scared. I kinda went deep in my snuggle sack.

I was everyone's favorite and Chez just bit the bars because there was basil for the kids to feed us.

Actually Barrett the cat was a big hit with everyone.
 
Lol today mom thought I had blood in my stool then she looked at my pink crinkle toy and realized I had eaten some of the pink paper.

Despite getting a tablespoon of cc and eating, gaining 20 grams every 5 days, my poo is still a little on the small side. But I passed my health check yesterday.

I'm just down for a nap so mom's going to go get dressed and have breakfast.
 
Glad the pink was just a bit of paper. “I kinda went deep in my snuggle sack”. Yes, I think that phrase has a lot of meaning for a lot of Guinea pigs. Still, they liked you and cared about you. I hope you have a good appetite and healthy digestion!

Hello survivors,

a little update from your fellow survivor. This is me eating kale in slaves arms. I ate it all up!
Wow, what a wheeeeek I had! But I keep my eyes on the price, and price is my precious life and today I'm rocking it! Almost.

Yesterday I showed some interest in hay. Today I actually ate some. I sniff pellets but I dont eat them yet. And my appetite for veggies are almost as it uses to. Slave can tell I'm not in the same amount of pain anymore, and I'm actually out of my house walking around the cage again pretty much as frekvent as normal for me. I lost a little weight these days, but this morning I weighed 25g more than I did yesterday morning.

Now its up to everyone around me to survive my farts. I'm proud. I know Chip can smell it from his rainbow and smiles. Thats how interesting I smell!

Love from smelly and proud, your Joe
 
Dear Joe

You should act like a Diva and insist on being syringe fed as I do because it's much more dignified. Miss Bramble has my leftovers and this morning she had it all around her mouth and it looked like a great big green splodge all over her chin! I thought it was disgusting but her Mum Misty was happy to clean her up.

Joe, are you being syringe fed or do you take it from a dish?

I'm like Thea, a bit of a princess. I demand a syringe. I always have a little dish in my cage, but I dont touch it. Thats not food! But, most of the times I'm a very good boy when slave syringes me. Not just in the mornings.

Slave says its such a rollercoster to care for me right now. Today I'm in pain and grumpy. Its hard to eat and I just want to deepdive my cuddle sack. Slave tries to remember last time, she remembers I came along very well the first days and then I was in pain until suddenly. Just bam. And she wants to remember it was just the same pattern in my behaviour. But seriously, slaves memory sometimes... Last time I fixied my tooth slave worked, wrote her exam paper and was out on practice in a school for her studies. And took care of me. In slaves life everything happens at the same time, right now she's just started a new work.
I'm on 0,8ml metacam/2 times day. Vet says until tomorrow, but slave says until I eat my hay properly. But today I discovered soaked pellets! I went crazy and was very excited. Slave too.
 
Dear Joe, I'm a bit of a metacam junkie myself, and the vet lady said that slave will always have to make sure I have it twice a day. I love soaked pellets too. I'm trying some new ones from piggy parcels that slave says 'are better for me'. I hope they taste just as yummy 😋, your friend Ziggy

Dear Ziggy,

in this family I'm the real metacamjunkie. I'm with your vet, pigs should have at least 2 lovely syringes of it everyday (I like the "Recovery"-syringes, 15ml. Remember I'm VERY big, I need much!). But world is unfair and I dont get any metacam. Just Joe. Do you or anyone else has any good tips on how to get your paws on some metacam?

I agree with @Truffolo you have to pretend that something hurts really badly ( try limping or squeaking when you move). I like the recovery food too, but I'm just as happy to eat it out of a bowl. I didn't used to be allowed any pellets but I need some now to maintain my 1300g plus weight. How heavy are you? Probably even heavier if you're VERY big!

Slave is nervous that the scale will scream error everytime my small paws touches it. I dont really get why, its just numbers! Right now the numbers are 1735. Joe is around 1300 normally, and slave says he's like a little cotton ball compared to me. Because of his tooth-drama he lost a bit and is now only 1235-1240. Skin and bones!
You should really demand more pellets and join the very big side of life! I just get a few at cuddle time, but your slave sounds nicer than mine.
 
This Oreo Vanillas sounds interesting 🍪 Is it an upper or a downer?
Good tonic for the appetite ⚖️
Truffle: I would just like to say that although I live next door to Polo, I am not addicted to anything.
Mommy Slave: Oh yeah, try starting a day without Romaine lettuce...🥬
 
My poop is getting bigger! Almost like Chez. One soft stool yesterday so no veg today.
