Hi guys, i'm going away on the 5th Oct for 3 nights (fri-mon morning) and need to find Liquorice temporary lodgings whilst i'm away.
She's on meds (metacam) and needs a knowledgeable GP owner to care for her. I'd ask my Oh's son, but think this is 'above' him, and don't think i'd enjoy my short break, because I worry about her enough as it is, never mind leaving her in the hands of an inexperienced 22 year old male (no offence)..

She'll have one of her cage mate BonBon with her, as she doesn't do travelling alone, and will settle better with her close friend.

If anyone in the Stockport/Glossop/Ashton-under-Lyne area can help, i'd be so grateful :)
 
Hey! Sadly I'm way too far away to help, but it might be usefull for people to know if they come with a cage or if a spare would be needed by her carers etc :) Also what bedding she is on, just little extras like that :)
 
I don't have a spare cage atm, holiday is sort of short notice, Oh said he doesn't think his son will be able to administer her med, and probiotics.
She's currently on paper pellets (to reduce dust levels), with hay on top, she also has P@H nuggets, timothy hay and veg at supper time.
I've never sent my piggies on holiday before, but as I said, Liquorice needs special attention, and leaving her under the care of someone who knows little about GP's in general, i have little choice..
 
I was lucky that my Mum was able to care for Duke....... now i'd have to look for somebody with the way my girls are..... so i understand your concerns love XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
 
They're more than welcome to stay with me, I know I'm a bit further than where you live though so it's up to you x
 
I have a spare ZZ2 they could holiday in. I'm near chester, so about the same distance as pompypigs, just in a different direction. Maybe to far.
 
I'm willing to look after her and her pal if your going past anywhere near Chesterfield to your holls.
 
aw I would have had them for you however I am also away that wheekend! Hope you get a suitable place :)
 
We are in Manchester so could have done it for you but started with our first fungal infection yesterday, which you probably want to avoid ! If you are still stuck let me know though
