Sheamus & Badger & Cesaro & Jericho & Big E & Enzo & Tyson Kidd & Nattie &Khaleesi & Coco

Hi Kerry,I'm sorry you are going through a very difficult time.that is brave to tackle the short comings of the vet,but prevents it happening to someone else,:hug:s to you.xx
 
Only just saw this @Kerrie74 how awful for you- and heres me moaning on another thread! I'm really sorry for your loss and hope you can take peace from the fact you loved him dearly and gave them all a wonderful life. Hopefuly your vet has learned a lesson to prevent this happening again :-(
 
Hi @eileen thank you for your kind words. That's Snow and Storm :) They also have health issues *sigh* Storm the one facing the camera has bladder and kidney stones and Snow who is a bit shy has mammary tumours.
 
Beautiful piggies,ive 15 piggies in total,hope mine do not all have medical problems in the future!I'm adding a neuterd boar to a fiesty female in the next few weeks,thats the problem ive had!fall outs!sorry you have had medical issus,but cavies give so much,i find they help with low moods!
 
We've got 9 now, 2 that possibly have ovarian cysts as well, I'll be getting them looked at in about a week or so.

Sheamus and Cesaro really did help my mood, I have different health problems and those two would always cheer me up.
 
I'm sorry to hear that,ovarian cysts seem more common than i was aware,one of mine may have one,but just concerned about the invasive op.It is a challenge when you have multiple heath problems,but you seem very positive in the face of adversity.if you get chance maybe your son could post some pics of your piggies.I really love seeing pics of other peoples cavies,it always brings a smile to my face.xx
 
Very much so @PiggyOwner you know sometimes when a animal comes along that's different in a good way, that was Shaemus and Cesaro, you could handle them no problem, they'd fall asleep on you and Cesaro was the "kissing pig" who wobbled around like captain jack sparrow and Shaemus was the piggy that got excited when you let him out, he'd "nee NAR" around the floor and go and see the dog.

All animals are special, but these two... Our dog is special as well, grumpy but special lol.

I won't be adopting anymore, this time it was very hard to see him get as I'll as he did, there aren't any vets that seem to know what they are doing with guineas here so it's not fair on them, I've now got to try and sort three other guineas out. Causing me a lot of uneeded stress and has made my mental health worse, can't be doing with losing anymore due to vets....
 
Kerrie if you would like a competent vet i can really recommend Craig Hunt at china house ,silbey,loughborough.he is in the vet list up the top.he has neutered all my male piggies ...6 without any complicatios,operated on my 2 year old for a nasty groin abcess.he is an exotic vet,and loves cavies.if you needed transport to get there i would be willing to help out.xx
 
I'm so very sorry to hear the awful news @Kerrie74 .

@eileen . You need to be a bit careful with Craig, and wherever possible don't let them keep your piggies in overnight. Craig is a fabulous surgeon but is not a people person (he's a vet and so knows better than his clients), and his nursing staff are terrible. Craig successfully operated on one of my boys twice for bladder stones, and if I had to I would use him again for surgery. But, another of my pigs died because of the nurses there. They wouldn't release him after an xray and they were unable to care for him properly. Despite my efforts and two friends (one is a Rodentologist, the other a RHA) he died.

If you want further info please don't hesitate to contact me :)
 
Aw @Kerrie I'm so sorry, and I'm sorry too that I've not been around lately. Cesaro was really special, and I know the two of you doted on him and had a lovely bond with him. Will PM you hunni x
 
No don't apologise, you've had so much on your plate. Yeah I've had some stuff to organise and my youngest is having several things happening all at once in his life, all good with him, but stuff to sort out, and I've PM'd you, but I should have checked in and didn't. Massive hugs :hug:
 
I want to add Jericho to this thread. I had to have him put to sleep today, very upset about it all and still haven't gotten over loosing the others.

Jericho was a lovely lad that liked to give you a bit of a nip, he adored his cage mate Big E who he joined last year when Big E lost his cage mate Sheamus, it was a match made in heaven. We love him to bits and always will, I have lots of fond memories of him.

I don't feel like saying too much, far too upset.

RIP Jericho aka The Little Blonde Shark, sorry you left us so soon, we only had you for just over a year. You will be missed lots.
