Hi
Totally new to this forum, and piggies so I thought i make a post here
Eddie is an adoptee from P@H .. yea i know all the reasons, however, he has been sitting there for a few weeks, and I noticed he would never move out of his little hideyhole, never was tempted to go and come up to the glass.
Last week I was back with mydaughter, we needed food etc for the degus and chinchillas, and we decided he had to come hoe with us.
He is lovely and the reason why nobody wantd him was that he has a sort of headtilt,. He sways his head around a lot, cant walk in a straightline, runs in circles and when going to fast he falls over x) He is adorable though, white, pink eyes very pink ears and soft beige strips over his head x)
Little clip of him

Its the reason why nobody wanted him. He had been on 2 courses of anti-biotics according to them, though we know the vet they use and he is not an exotic pet, he is not very good at all ( we did tellthem) so yesterday we took him to our own (Rosetree Cottage Vets in Runcorn)
She thinks some swlling may still bethere, accounting for this behaviour, and gave him an anti-inflammatory and need to take him back next monday.
if it improves great, if not, not biggie,as he is happy now, eating wel, drinking well and is very active
I am not bothered,as long as I know he is happy. Who knows, once he has settled, I will probably be looking to get hima companion as on the moment he is getting far too close and intimate with the stuffed elephant in his cage!
It will definately be a rescued piggie, all our animals are rescued and happy.
