It was lovely to meet you and the boys! They are both gorgeous and seem to be such characters. I thought Garry looked great and very bright and his weight gain is fantastic. Simon is so lovely with the little furries too!

He does make me laugh! When I went in, he'd put Garry on the floor. Poor wee boy was looking a bit shell shocked but was having a bit of a shuffle around. I'm sure they'll love staying with you...just a word of warning though...be very careful with Minty...got another nip off him tonight. All I was doing was putting him back in his cage!rolleyes

Poor Garry must've wondered what on earth was going on! :)) First a strange lady is holding him, and then she hands him to a strange man who plonks him on the floor!

I'm really looking forward to having my house guests. Don't worry about Minty, I'm used to getting the odd nip or two. Pixie constantly mistakes my finger for food!

How's gorgeous Garry?

Gorgeous Garry is currently sitting on my lap, chomping (as much as you can chomp) on some Science Recovery. He is very lively, seems to be very excited every time he comes out for food. After last night's shinanigans with Ben, G is very easy to look after!:))rolleyes
 
awwww its brill that things are starting to look up, I wasn't so lucky with Fergie but sometimes nature has its course and you can't stop it.

You are a very good piggie mummy! No doubt!
 
Garry has now developed what looks to be an abscess on his face, between his ear and his eye. It's so not fair that he should get all of this! I only hope he's got the fight in him to get through this as well. Debbie has kindly offered to take him to the vet for me on Monday - thank you so much! He is eating OK (as he ever does) at the moment and doesn't seem too bothered by it, only if I go to touch it. Am keeping my fingers crossed for him yet again...
 
Fingers crossed here... poor soul just seems to be one thing after another!

Good job he's a fighter!

Debbie your a star, for taking him to the vet :)! I'm sure Garry will be very grateful once he's healed, not so sure he'll be happy about the vet visit though!
 
Garry will fight through this with no problems he has come through so much and he has wonderful people looking after him - all fingers and piggy paws crossed for you :)
 
Having met the little man last week and seen his determination I'm really hoping this is just a blip in his road to much better health.

You're right Emma, Simon is so lovely that a trip to the vet isn't scary for them. Poppet loved going to see her special uncle Simon.
 
Morning Debbie (I am so going back to bed in a mo once I've sorted G's stuff out!)

Am I just bringing G over in his box? Is that OK? Also, I don't finish work until about 4.30 on Mondays - will you be OK having him until then?

Thanks again for the offer of taking him to see Simon - you are a life saver!
 
It may have got a little bigger overnight, but nothing too drastic. I am hoping it stays in one piece until Simon can see him - I only have one proper abscess experience and that was with Ben's minging one!

Garry is still seeming feisty though - I just went up to get him and he was eating some porridge I put in when I went to bed. He is lively and is looking for his Science Recovery, so I'm taking that as a good sign!

Will let Moo know he's going on a trip too...I'm sure he'll love to see you too!:)
 
how exciting for them both road trip :)p he's a strong little one your garry xx
 
Fingers crossed for your special little guy! Sorry to read he now has an abscess on top of his teeth trouble. Wishing him a swift recovery!
 
I have got to say a HUGE thank you to Debbie for all she has done today. Garry is now back home with me, tucking into a bit of cucumber and a bowl of Science Recovery. He is bright and lively and doesn't seem worse for wear for his ordeal today. He has had his Zithromax and Metacam so is now a dosed up piggy.:)
 
After his ordeal, showing his good side with radioactive eye...!
