My beautiful baby Oreo was prescribed Critical Care before she went over the Rainbow Bridge and we now have loads left in an opened packet.

I've read that you can't really keep it to use for future piggies that need feeding support so I wondered if there was anything I could do with it so it isn't wasted?

Is there any way of turning it into little treats for my remaining 3 piggies? I have small moulds I could shape it in.

I am so sorry to hear you have lost Oreo.
You could try them with a bowl of the mix in the cage and see if they will eat it.
If there is a rescue near you that is syringe feeding at the moment they may take it.
This is why I like the Burgess Dual Care, it comes in pellet form but mixes with water easily for syringe feeding. It comes in small well sealed packets. Always hoping next time doesn't come but if it does I usually have some food on hand. When the pellets reach the use by date I feed them as a pellet none get wasted.
Hope someone else comes along with some suggestions soon.
 
I was in the same situation, and my boy is obsessed with critical care so I gave him. Turned out his new neighbour loves it too, its has been a great way for us to bond! Ofc he does not want it right now when he needs it after a tooth trim, its only good when you dont need it...
Its a good way to get your pigs used to the syringe.
