Impaction Cured!?

[piggylover]

Hi I got luigi my rescue pig about 3 mths ago and he always had quite a bad impaction problem ( which rescue said occurred after his neutering op) it had got to the point where I was clearing 2 times a day !. Anyway I haven't had to clear him for over a week now is it possible for a pig that has been constantly "bunged" up for several months to suddenly be cured? or is this likely to come back? . I'm hopeful that him being on a good diet , having a big c and c cage and lots of floortime has been what has helped or "cured" this. Anyone else had any experience of this or am I counting my chickens

My pig's impaction problem seems to be intermittent, so maybe that's what is going on with your boy?

the rescue said a note that came with him said he was 2 . He had no signs of being impacted before his neutering op they said so I was really hoping that he had got over it but have a feeling piglet and rogers mama is prob right
