:(.. ..



How many people's hearts skipped a beat? Normally people say that because there pigs aren't getting on. Unfortunately both pigs need monitored and I can't do that when they are together.

Esme keeps peering over, as I have them side by side but I think Milo is quite enjoying it! xx

Hope they will both be okay. At least They can see each other and be back together hopefully soon. What's been up with them?

Someone's drinking to much water. Between them they are drinking 354mls in 12 hours. I'm just making sure I have the right Culprit for the Vet visit fairly certain it's Milo. This way I will see exactly who's drinking what.

They will be back together tomorrow. Although Esme is determined to make it tonight!
 
Oh dear. I know the feeling I had to sit on pee what trying to work out if it was Bob or Spike that had pink wee. You don't want to go to the vet saying I don't know which one it is. Hope he's alright x

Awww poor Esme I can understand how she misses Milo he is lovely!

That does seem a fair bit of water drank, hope everything is ok at vets visit - I'm sure it will be.
 
Phew, my heart cant take that kind of scare:o:o Hope you find out who the heavy drinker is!

I'm hoping for a leaky bottle, although fairly sure it's Milo, even my dad who pays no attention to the pigs ever said and I quote ' Every time I go in your room Milo's at the Water bottle.'

That's without me saying anything but just want to know for sure before the vet visit.

Good to know your facts.. rolleyes.
 
awww I hope whoever it is is alright.

A thick question but whats wrong with drinking lots? My 3 go through a big ferplast bottle a day, is that to much?

I am wondering the same, Liquorice drinks insane amounts... When we first adopted her, we thought she might be pregnant.

Anything over 300ml's is excess drinking - Milo and Esme get though 700mlz in a 24 hour period. That rings alarm bells in it's self.

Anyone that knows me from last year - you may remember Bette's story she drank the same amount, and had diabetes I had to PTS as it was to late. I refuse to lose another pig due to excessive drinking.

What makes it worse is Milo - never drank a lot of water before so it is a drastic change in behaviour, he's also losing weight.

Unfortunately, my experiment didn't go so well as Milo played dead all night refused to move and just looked terrified I reunited the lovers at 5am - Milo did drink 50mls and Esme Bottle was untouched. Which means it isn't leaking. I knew the culprit was Milo just wanted to be sure but I don't think it can be an accurate measurement as Milo was clearly distressed.

Thanks Flintstones, I am going to check on Liquorice this weekend, she is lowest ranking so seperating her shouldn't cause problems when reintroducing. I am sure she is drinking near 300ml a day.

I hope your Milo is alright :)

I have just worked out that one of the P@H glass bottles are about 350ml, and there is no wya she goes through one of them a day, thats a LOT of water!

No wonder your worried!

you gave me a real start with the title, though!
 
Ohhh I didnt know any of that, I will keep an eye on the boys, I'm not sure what there bottle holds so will go find out, though maybe between 3 it dont work out as much each.
 
I can see why you are worried. I really hope he is ok.
 
I really hope Milo is okay .... He is really the cutest piggy ....ever ! x) x)

I dont really want to make everybody jealous but I did manage a cuddle with Milo at the weekend..... but....I think to be fair to everyone else rolleyes .... maybe we need more Milo pigtures.... and if we ALL concentrate on Milo with healing vibes..... they may work...

Slave ... you know what you've got to do..... :))

Milo - is doing well, happy, lovable bundle of fur as always.

I am a bit concerned as his back end feel's different, not sure how to explain it and it's quite possible I am a paranoid Mum as always but I'd rather not take any chances. I spoke to my vet last week and we are going to see him on Thursday for a check up. If anything it'll put my mind at rest. I will update after the appointment.
 
just about to ask how Milo was.............thanks for the update love xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
