Junior Guinea Pig
I have two sows who are both 10 months old. Recently Moose has taken to licking Pipin's left eye. I took Pipin to the vet and they have given me eye drops because she has abrasions on both eyes (likely from the licking apparently, even though Pipin shuts her eyes while it happens), and I have been advised to separate the girls. The treatment is to last 5 days and I'm happy to separate them, however I am worried that the behaviour has become almost obsessive and that after the 5 days, if I put them back together, the licking will start again.
I am going on holiday next Saturday (7th Nov) and the pigs are going to the local ManxSPCA for boarding. They're supposed to be in a shared kennel kitted out for pigs and I'm worried that if it hasn't stopped by then, that they will be fully separated without being able to see each other. Or they'll be togrther and the eyes will get bad again.
Has anyone experienced anything like this before? Or do you have any tips for busting this type of behaviour?
Thanks in advance
