Ted’s stopped eating - a terrible week

Gem789 said:
So glad to hear Ted is doing well. My piggies love mint, dill, parsley and the girls like coriander but if I offer them anything like rosemary they stick their middle finger up at me lol.

She's the same. Still got an appetite but still whimpering in pain when she goes for a wee. I started her on cystease today to see if it helps. She's still on her antibiotics and metacam aswell x

Aw, poor little Poppy, hope the Cystease gives her some comfort, Poppy and Ted are on the same meds atm. let’s hope the antibiotic kills these nasty infections up x

That's amazing! Love it! All my little charges are doing well. Ted is eating more and more hay and Freddie started to eat some hay today too! Zoltan's tummy still keeps producing lots of pus, but he's happy, so that's all that matters.

Aw, that’s great news! Love it when he’s eating hay, that’s such A good sign and little Freddie too, his mouth must be healing up well. Poor little Zoltan, wish that nasty abscess would heal up, what a nightmare, but he’s happy and he doesn’t know so he’ll happily carry on x Thanks for the update, meant to ask earlier but forgot with the sewing efforts 😆 Thanks for taking so good care of Ted xx

Ted fell out with me today, because I cut his nails! 🤣 He forgave me once I went and picked him some more grass!

😆 He’s not a fan! But a lot better than Bill was, he would shriek the house down as soon as he saw the scissors! A right deva! don’t know why because I have never caught a vein. Ted really needed them cutting when we dropped him off but he was so weak with not eating and that dreadful dental that I felt I couldn’t subject him to any more stress. Thanks for doing that, he soon forgives you if he get some grass. I bet they’ll feel so much better too.

Excuse me, auntie Debbie! Should you be making coffee, when you haven’t been outside to pick grass?

Chop chop, where’s my breakfast!
Aw, look at the little fella! We do miss him, I love it when he comes to the bars and asks for breakfast! Aw, his little face 💕 Tell Ted we are missing him so much and to get some weight back on now and keep munching x

What a difference a week makes! He was such a poorly boy, this time last week!
 
Bill & Ted said:
Aw, you’ve worked your magic on him Debbie, so relieved, has he finished his antibiotics and how’s his chest doing?

He's still on them, but will ask Simon how much longer to give, when we see him on Tuesday. His breathing looks completely normal!

Aw, that’s great news! he’ll be one less to have to worry about, hope Freddie continues to eat for himself and little Zoltan is alright

Freddie is eating so much better! I've told him that I will leave him alone and stop forcing him to have syringe food, if he continues, as he's doing! Freddie has to be the worst piggy, ever, to syringe feed!

Zoltan is great, but still lots of pus!

Aw, great news about Freddie, good boy! He sounds like he’s got over the worst, Zoltan such a lovely piggie, wonder where all that pus is coming from, is it several abscesses draining from the original jaw abscess, poor lad, let’s hope the drugs will eventually get it knocked on the head, these piggies are so resilient and loving life, you just have to do what ever it takes to get them better, you’re doing a great job Debbie x
 
Ted’s at the vets at 5.30 pm today to have another dental along with four other little piggies at Debbie’s. He’s been ear wagging again so it will be good that Simon can have a good look in his mouth and see if anything is getting stuck in his mouth x
