Adult Guinea Pig
Just been over to Reading to see our cavy savvy vet now she's back from holiday.
Bob's been passing a small amount of blood on and off and (not surprisingly) the 3 days worth of Baytril the new (not yet) cavy savvy vet gave him didn't make any difference.
Our regular vet Jenny persuaded me to have him x rayed rather than try Septrin and wait and see and luckily her colleague had just finished with the xray machine so rather than make another appointment she whisked him straight in for a picture. I sat in the waiting room with my fingers crossed being distracted by a lady who had just brought a lost dog in who had ran into her bakery, sadly he wasn't microchipped so the dog warden was called to collect him. Any way, 5 minutes later and Bob's been given the all clear, no bladder stone. I'm so relieved, 2 weeks of Septrin and Rimadyl and hopefully he'll be pink wee free!
Only problem is there's only £50 left in the vet fund now so I've got some saving to do to top it up again! £145 today for x ray, consultation and meds plus £68 before for the previous visit. Beans on toast for the next month I think! Jenny's given me 100ml of Septrin which is more than enough so I have some to hand just incase, what I forgot to ask was what's the best way to store it and how long will it keep for. Anyone know?
Bob "We're going where?!"

Slave "We're going in the car to see Jenny"
Bob "You don't fool me, I know who Jenny is. She's the bladder squeezing lady who make me embarrass myself all over the table. I don't think so."

A couple of hours later.....
Bob "I'm not falling for that "look there's lots of hay in this nice box Bob, why don't you jump in and play" trick again slave! I can't believe you let her pop out my bits and squeeze me till I weed again! I'm staying here, don't distrurb me.... unless you've got veggies."

Hopefully the Orchard Grass I've ordered will cheer him up when it arrives.

That sounds good, I might recruit a couple of fellow slaves to come along with me
