Severe IC

Nancy is looking really good. No pain squeaking at all. Poos not 100% for some reason but she's not loosing any weight.

Her piggie friend Fonzie though squeaked in pain in the night weeing. I suspect it was him a few nights ago and not Nancy. I dont understand what I am doing wrong. Their diet is absolutely fine. Fonzie is a bit bored at the moment as I've removed the hay cube incase nancy scraps herself on them getting in and out. I'm really fed up, if its not one thing it's something else. Fonzie looks fine and maybe I've just picked up on something that will pass with him being in my bedroom. But I will be going to the vets.

I'm glad Nancy is doing well but I don't understand why these things keep happening and I'm exhausted with it. I am trying my best.

Nancy has a wound infection. I have done all I can. Have her on fleece cleaning it twice a day but still not enough. Gutted. Concerned as I've seen this before and it wasn't good

HUGS

I am so very sorry. Have you contacted your vet?
 
Update on Nancy.. had to have her stitches removed. And just one put back in to allow it to drain. And I am wound flushing. Poos are still small which is odd as her weight is staying the same. No pain squeaking at all though which is very good

Is Nancy still on medication? If so, that could be a contributing factor to the small poos especially if her weight is stable but it’s great news that she’s stopped squeaking x

She's on her usual meds which didn't cause small poos pre-surgery. She is on baytril now but she only started that on Tuesday and they were small before so it seems odd

It's a bit of a guessing area - but if the general area is still a bit swollen, then that could account for the smaller poos. Please also remember that the poos are running 1-2 days behind events.

Thank you. If its that, that would be good as they should go back to normal in time.
