    how to reduce the pain of my guinea pig with Arthritis

    Hi! I just bought the Oxbow Joint Support treats for him but he refuses to even nibble it. But now after hearing your story I think it’s so important that he eats it and I need to find a way to make sure he does!

    Cystitis

    ...effect. I'm in the US and it doesn’t seem like my local vets and their exotic specialists they consult with are as familiar with cystitis. The only glucosamine they recommended is oxbow joint support which has 90 mg. I was actually coming here to ask about Feliway capsules. Is that what...

    Advice on possible UTI

    Thanks for the reassurance. He’s already on long term pain relief for arthritis so that’s sorted. I’ve tried oxbow treats (both normal and the supplement kind) on all of my pigs before and none of them will touch them 🙄 but might have a go at them again. Sorry to hear about your girl, it really...

    Feliway questions

    ...Our vet has only recommended Oxbow joint support tablets, which have 90 mg glucosamine. My piggie Buttercup has been on and off antibiotics for over a year, and now we’re trying just Metacam (.23ml once a day) for up to 2 weeks at a time during flares. She’s almost 5 based on the rescue’s...

    Moving poorly guinea pig

    I used to give my boy Oxbow joint support biscuits (purple on pack) - just online from amazon or something. They also do a Urinary support one (yellow on pack). But they are the same price and the purple had twice as much glucosamine as the yellow (90mg instead of 45mg) which is more like the...

    Guinea Pig bladder stone medication treatment

    ...After a year on and off antibiotics, we're trying anti inflammatories (meloxicam) for flare ups, and a glucosamine suppliment (oxbow joint support). That worked for a few months. Now the blood and pain is returning and not disappearing with a week of meloxicam, so trying antibiotics again...

    cystease in critical care

    ...a few days and it went away. Going to try that (she just did two obvious squeaky pees last night and we gave one meloxicam dose) and she's been on oxbow joint support already. Wanting to add the higer glucosamine dose with the cystease for a few days and then try to get booked in if necessary 😍

    Hip pain? (Long post)

    ...not a medicine, so it does not need a prescription. I actually started to give it to George only because I inherited a bag of oxbow joint support biscuits from my friend whose elderly rabbit had passed. They are not cheap - about £11 a bag - and you don't see the benefit for a few weeks...

    how to reduce the pain of my guinea pig with Arthritis

    ...couple of months and he was OK, but then my friend (who had lost her elderly rabbit in Feb this year) gave me a half-used pack of Oxbow Joint Support lozenges (perhaps you would call them cookies in the states) so I thought 'nothing to lose...' and used them as a daily 'treat' not really...

    UTI/IC pain not letting up

    ...crying with pain and popping her butt up. A lot. We are trying to increase her daily glucosamine from 90mg to double that (oxbow joint support). I also do have the feliway cystease capsules. I was attempting to give her a whole capsule twice a day. She HATES it. She’s also tired of...

    Bladder issues

    I'm so sorry Larry, I've no experience with thickened bladders - just with standard stones and UTIs. I do know the oxbow urinary support tablets only have 45mg glucosamine whereas the joint support have 90mg so it's good you have cystease too. This post will likely be no help at all! George's...

    please help.. bladder problems again, want to be prepared

    ...can help a battered bladder. Some people use feliway cystease which has to be sprinkled on the food. George has either Oxbow joint support or oxbow urinary support lozenges - a sort of one-a-day biscuit he enjoys crunching down. The arthritis ones actually have twice the glucosamine of the...

    Neverending UTI saga: advice needed

    ...seems to be working. Finally the vet is treating it kind of like IC, with just pain meds during a flare and the glucosamine (oxbow joint support) every day. As far as the money, it's just so hard. I don't know what it would have been like when I was your age. My parents did pay some vet...

    Bladder sludge

    ...but I've got a feeling that this might not be a straightforward UTI so managing her symptoms will be your priority. Have you got her on glucosamine? Some people use the feliway cystease but we had oxbow joint support lozenges - easier with George as he liked them and just used to scoff them down.

    Old Man Nibbler Sick

    Hi everyone! My wife and I have an elder 6.5 year old boar named Nibbler who is battling a few illnesses right now that have us really concerned. We are located in the US and can kindly use some assistance, feedback, and personal experiences. My apologies in advance for the incredibly long...

    Are occasional bad poops in an older piggie normal?

    ...to watch her despite them all being on the same diet! But I'm guessing that your lady hasn't always been like this? My boar had oxbow joint support lozenges which contain 90mg glucosamine and are designed for small furries. He has them for day-to-day help with his arthritis - which isn't too...

    cystease in critical care

    You need to check what the packaging says whether the critical care can be taken with other medication. Not all recovery products can be combined anymore. I've been using a different recovery product so I am not on the up with CC.

    Persistent bladder problems

    ...time? We went from 10-14 days to all the way to 6 weeks. Symptoms would come back after 2-4 weeks. Now my pig has been taking Oxbow joint support cookies for the glucosamine since February and has been off antibiotics for her longest stretch so far (5 weeks!) without symptoms returning...

    Cystitis

    Sorry for the late response - I just saw your other post. No I looked up vegan glucosamine tablets in my country (I’m in Australia) and found some that are in a capsule that I can open up and mix with filtered water. Does your sow still squeak when toileting or does the squeaking go away over time?
