Nigel is a heart pig and is on regular heart medication. He has good days and bad but his weight has been an ongoing battle.

He is today at an all time low of 616g. At his heaviest he has been around 840g. We do regular wee tests and each time they show up a high protein reading. Am working with my vets and rodentologist and apparently it is not uncommon for a heart pig to also have renal issues.

The Fortekor he is on will also help with the renal issue so is just a management situation really.

Just thought I would post on here for lots of positive vibes for my little man.
 
Sorry I can't be of more help but I can definitely send lots of positive vibes your way. Big hugs for you and little Nigel xx
 
The Tribe are sending Nigel lots of wheeky whibes!

wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
 
Oh Helen poor little Nigel :(
He's such a little battler and you do your absolute best for him.....xx>>>


LOVING VIBES FOR YOU DEAR NIGEL, GLYNIS, VELVET, ONYX, TOMMY AND BELLA XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
