I'm just posting to get some good luck vibes for Little Miss our little piggie. She snatched a syringe from my OH's hand and ate the rubber bung WHOLE! We're waiting on tenderhooks to see if it passes naturally, but we (vet and us) are not sure if it will. We'll be at the vets tomorrow morning for an examination... sooner if worried, keeping a close eye on her tonight. Maybe an xray in the morning will show its passing ok, lets hope so. :{

To learn from this... please be careful with your cut off end syringes and over zealous greedy pigs.

Oh poor thing, hope it passes through ok. I should watch out for this with Nigel then and his habit of nicking the syringe and flinging it everywhere.
 
Oh my god I did not even imagine that could happen! I wish you all the luck.
 
Oh no, hope it comes out quickly and smoothly and causes no problems.

Logic says it should pass through fine, but you can't be too careful!

Good luck and have fun poo-searching :))

On the bright side, at least piggy poo is minimally offensive!
 
The poo searching begins lol. Her xray shows no blockage, and it looks like it might be in the caecum (earlier today) should be out soon hopefully. lol. silly pig.

Misty thinks that if she gets lots of extra veg it might encourage it on its way! Good luck! ;) :))
 
Only just seen this thread, so glad that it is passing through naturally! x
