Thank you so much for your reply, I live in Texas, but not too horribly far from the Louisiana border. The vet gave us enrofloxacin 50mg/ml, which he said was to try to help the inflammation in his bladder go down. I am just really worried that he is going to pass in surgery if I can wait some...

Hello all, I am stumped so I wanted to crowdsource some info from other guinea pig owners. This is mostly a TLDR I wrote a lot under the images on Imgur. Here is her history: Age: I have had Kaylor for 3.5 years, unsure of her age as I rescued her but let's guess about 5 years old now...

Hi Diet-wise, keep off any root veg (including carrots), any grain (including sweetcorn), go very lightly on fruit and mainly feed cucumber, 1 slice of pepper a day, a little fresh coriander (USA: cilantro) every few days, a slice of greens (USA: collard greens) once a week; they are a milder...

Hi, thank you so much for the info, I’ll definitely look into that and YES I have been feeding him the Oxbow Urinary Tract Supplement and it does have Glucosamine on it as you said, and I’ll try to get my hand on it too because he does, on the rare occasion, squeal when he tries to pee or poo...

...so my vet tells me he has a good fighting chance. I now have the critical care mix and he's still on his meds until he has his stitches removed in 10 days. I've also bought the Oxbow urinary support biscuits which contain glucosamine for continued support. Thank you all again for your...

Kiro, like George, has improved a lot on antibiotics. Fortunately it didn't affect his digestion and the vet advised me to only give probiotics if his poops get worse, which fortunately didn't happen. I stopped the antibiotics on Friday so it was also about 4 days that it got significantly...

Hi! I am very sorry for your loss. Urethral stones in boars make the biggest chunk of fatalities in guinea pigs with urinary tract problems because boars have a longer urethra with an awkward inglenook where stones can get stuck and occasionally block the urethra. :( Please take the time to...

...always had filtered water and my bladder piggy has been on cystease for around 3 weeks now (though before that they did take oxbow urinary support biscuits which contain glucosamine too) I’m following the IC diet on the forum so green pepper, coriander, cucumber, green bean, spring greens and...

...per day? Unfortunately, the vet did not advise me on anything benebac related. Just told me to use it while my GP is on his antibiotics. I also have another question, is it safe for me to give him Oxbow Urinary Support biscuits as well as Oxbow Vitamin C, while he’a on benebac AND antibiotics?

Tips For Post-operative Care I've not had a guinea pig that liked the Oxbow Critical Care but I know some do. I'm sure you will be fine, having a sick piggy is draining but it won't be for long. The first few days I check and change the pee pad under them regularly if they aren't moving around...

I’ve not actually heard of it, so I’ve just looked it up and it does say it contains alcohol and that the alcohol has to be evaporated off before use (provided I’ve looked at the right thing!). I’m not sure I would use it to be honest, having looked it up. Have you spoken to your vet about it...

...back to normal and not doing the "rocking" motion either, as far as I can tell. This happened, as well, when I gave her Oxbow Urinary Support Biscuits a few months ago - she did the same thing and I took her in to the vet who cleared her. I wonder what it is that makes her have problems?

Hello, After we stopped his antibiotics he went completely back to normal within about two days. If his pee turns bloody again, we are going to start giving them to him again. He literally would not hardly eat or drink whenever he was on the antibiotics. I also got some of the fine ground...

Don't sweat it - we're all learning all the time and some vets have just a bit more piggy experience than others. There's a lot of great stuff on the internet and a lot of crazy misleading dross but we can't tell one from the other! Piggy-wise this is the forum for me - if it's not on here...

...diet to remove a lot of calcium, she gets a few rosewood meadow menu pellets and a pinch of burgess. I have been giving her an oxbow urinary support tablet every day for the last month with two ml of water, and she has unlimited access to meadow hay. The veg that she gets is cucumber, red or...

...hay, veggies, pellets, etc. Mimi (the guinea pig in question) popcorns sometimes during floor time and eats her vitamins (Oxbow urinary support tablets and Oxbow Vitamin C) and for the most part is behaving normally. We got a new treat a few weeks ago (Oxbow Simple Rewards Veggie Treats) but...

Thank you so much, I’ve been having a look online, oxbow do some baked treats with cranberry would you recommend them? Or the urinary support ‘treats’ at all? his checkup is Friday can I take him somewhere else for that? They were talking about doing another wash out possibly under anaesthetic...

...on the forum was necessary. We shall see if that happens anytime soon. In the meantime, I bought and started Chipper on the Oxbow Urinary Support biscuits. It has glucosamine like the Cytease as well as other ingredients. It is worth a try and gives me a starting point thanks to all of...

Thanks so much, glad to hear your piggies recovered well, that’s reassuring. She was having is it oxbow critical care? (I think that’s what it’s called), I am so excited to have her home, but nervous about post op care. I’ll make sure I weigh her every day and that’ll hopefully help me decide...

...further to my vet I got it wrong, it was lodged in the ureter rather than the urethra, bless him. I was recommended some Oxbow urinary support biscuits by my vet but Ralph's not a fan so I am looking for other options to help prevent the build up which leads to stones - cystease/Cystaid are...
