and he draws blood! it is def ouch!

i need an oh who will do it! but i said if i could get the bunnies and piggies (which i got anyway lol) that i would do everything for them.. he just gets the cuddles.. big mistake ive realised now!.. guess who is the fav in our house! lmao x
 
I'm guessing its your OH lol,my dogs are the same though i am the meany and OH babies them so i am the one they ignore lol,Yes Glynis he did manage a chatter and then a rumble to matt(radio guy) which I'm not surprised at i don't think he realised how delicate piggies are,he did the inteview through his phone so that he didn't have to bring extra people to stress Boris,he was speaking quite loud because it was live and he is a bit OTT,and then they decided Boris's theme song was "eye of the tiger" lol,and then he made the mistake of putting the mobile with the music playing to Boris's ear before i could stop himgrrrr,I was afraid of another seizure but he was ok he just got really grumy and showcased it with some big rumbles and loud chattering lol,i also fit in a minute to raise the fact that piggies arent dissposable animals and that they cost as much as dogs at times and the decision to buy one shouldnt be taken lightly i ended it with consider rescue instead:))

hehe i want to go to london:(.not fair lol
yes that was Boris's second time on radio,he has also appeared on TV and the paper,basically OH's friend from paper heard about Boris and asked to do a story and then the TV station found out through the news paper and my mum told her friend matt who is from the radio,he had all of this done when he first got put in his splint and now they all want to do follow ups and then in 6 months again they want his complete recovery story,I'm also using it to turn idiots off guinea pigs,i think it has worked a little,most bad guinea pig owners don't want to spend what we have on guinea pig so its good to deter if they think they are in for a cheap throwaway pet x

i want t go to london too! think i need to diet enough to fit in his suitcase lol

what a star! both of you! When i got my baby today, the lady was telling me some stories of people she has turned down. One bloke said he only wanted one.. she told him she wont re-home singles.. he said well his last one lived quite happily for 6 years alone.. and she said.. how do you know? he could hardly pop out and buy himself a friend could he! ;)
When i was deciding to get piggies, loads of people said .. "what about a hamster? they dont live long, so ideal when you get sick of them, or i suppose piggies dont live that long either" i thought.. what do you mean get sick.. dont people get animals they WANT to have and give them a long and happy life any more? xx

Is there a clip of it on the radio's website (most of 'them do this nowadays)? I'd love to hear it! :(|)

hmm i don't think so it wasnt recorded as its live,and my darn mum was meant to record it for me but she was on an important phone call when we went on airrolleyes

aw darn! What is the radio station called? I am super sneaky good at finding archives if by chance they did record it! :))
 
Great update earlier Bonnie. You know I'm pleased with how well he's picked up! Didn't realise you took Boris with you to the interview, sounds like he was behaving like a normal stroppy piggie, with is fantastic!
 
Good on you, Bonnie! You are a proper crusader!

I am so glad that Boris is a bit better and has energy enough to be stroppy! All the medecine coordination is hopefully doing the trick!

I'm still sending my vibes and my love to your very special and famous little boy!
 
woohoo, 200th post on this thread!

I was worried about Boris all of last night, Maxy thought I was having a hormonal moment.... I'm so glad he's finding the strength to push you off with the syringes, he's still fighting.

I love the thought from Radio Matt 'Eye of the Tiger'... Good one!

All our love to Boris...

That made me laugh! I'm really fat lol.. hoping the gym works!

thats how i feel too.. i keep thinking about those girls someone phoned me about, and when i said i couldnt take them she said "snake food" and put the phone down. i just wish i had taken them now..

How is Boris and yourself today? been sending healing vibes! x
 
Night to you and Boris lovely to hear that he's eating some hay.........tell him more veggies too like his mates from the south :)
xx>>>xx>>>xx>>>xx>>>xx>>>xx>>>
 
Bonnie, as usual, we are all behind Boris... Give him some extra love from Britain, he's got plenty coming from here...

Hope you get some rest too, he'll need you fighting fit.

Mrs M and the family M
 
How is King Boris today, Bonnie? Been thinking about him, hope he's still improving.
 
hello all,
well with a new day comes a new set of problems it seemsmallethead

Today Boris has been flopped on his bed again and doesnt want to lift his head,he is still eating quite fine but i have to put all of his food to his mouth he isnt even willing to stretch to his plate anymore even though its right in front of him,
his front leg and foot have also puffed up to about double what it already was, so its looking bad,even the nurofen isnt bring his foot down at all,

i am thinking his foot is bothering him alot and maybe causing him to be floppy and tired?/.not sure but i have given all his meds reguarly so i don't know why its back up again,i have been applying bepanthen 3-4 times daily to his feet as well,any help is appreciated xxxxx:...
 
He seems to have one good day then one bad. I should say he doesn't want to move because of his feet...but you are doing all you can to help with them. I'm not sure what else to suggest. I'll keep going with what we agreed this end, but even I'm not sure where to go medically from here. I can give Vedra a call for you now if you like, see what she recommends for his feet?
