Anyone used them before? I bought a pack as they where on offer, and dandelion would be good for my heart piggy as its a natural diuretic.

I dont ser why it wouldnt be, but can anyone confirm if its safe for my bladder piggy?

I also bought some JR farm green oat hay and it looks delicious, i Usually feed my heart piggy the alfalfa king oat wheat and barley hay to keep her weight on but its very expensive for a small bag. Any feedback on the JR brand of oat hay would be great too before i feed it :)

I can't comment on the quality of either as I haven't used it (off to google it though!) but I don't see why you shouldn't feed in small amounts :-) x

I hope she enjoys it. My boys love everything else we have tried from JR Farm, especially the pellets.

I'm starting them on bunny, trying to get Crunchies bladder issues under control and ended up adding things to my basket to get free delivery- usual from me! Even the dog got a new toy!

Haha Zooplus is great for adding stuff you didn't actually go on for :lol!:
 
dandelion is too high calcium for bladder piggies. if your heart piggy is on a diuretic already then i'd ask your vet about using a natural one alongside it and whether it is safe. just because i know when using something like metacam, you shouldn't give anything like willow as willow already contains a natural anti-inflammatory. so it could be the same situation mixing medical and natural diuretic aswell :)
