meet C-section pig...
She has come from an un-known background...
Left in a box with 6 other pigs...
i took them all in on a temperary basis... untill they could get over to a rescue...
but in the first 24 hours... it became obvious that all of them had minor illness'... and that C-section pig was heavily pregnant... a vet visit later... and all of them were set up with treatments for different problems...
but C-section pig hadnt eaten anything or drank anything or passed any poo's.... I picked them up at evening time... and by the next afternoon i was flooring my car down the motor way to get C-Section pig to the specialist vets in Shirley...
where i walked straight in to a treatment room... my vets had already phoned ahead to them and faxed info to them....
the vet has a feel of her... and my suspisions were confirmed that she is toxic... and will need emergency surgery...
C-section pig had 3 babies... all of them had unfortunatly already passed over the bridge... and had started rotting...all the placentas had disintergrated.... it is estimated that they could have died aslong as a week prior to the emergency op....
this had caused extensive damage to her uterus...
she was spayed at the same time...
she has been unbelievably strong through out... she woke up 15 mins after being brought round... and was eating in 20 mins...
fantastic girlie... she definatly has a special place in my heart...
so without further delay....
more photos to follow...
