My old girl, Moonpig, is 8 1/2. She has in the past couple of years occasionally suffered with an upset tum, and can't clean herself up, so I do that for her. It's always resolved within a day or two, but it seems to be dragging on a bit this time. Just wondered if anyone had experience of this in very old piggies, and anything that helped? She is still drinking fine and has plenty of energy, but I wondered if anyone had any idea of the possible cause, or if it's just part of old age? Many thanks Jo, x
 
As it's only on occasion and rights itself i would suspect it is related to food. Maybe she reacts to a certain veg, or quantity.

If nothing is changing in her diet is it possible that the food she is getting is either slightly off, or a bit cold? One of my boys used to get an upset stomach if his veg wasn't at room temperature.
