(Backstory; Pip had a friend called Squeak who she was bonded to, recently she crossed the rainbow bridge due to a URI and Pip picked up a much more mild early stage version of URI, and luckily seems to be completely fine now. I believed she had acute pining due to the death of Squeak as she would sit and stare and not eat or drink all day. I began syringe feeding and she seemed very healthy and happy, except when put in her cage which had been cleaned and re-arranged multiple times since Squeak's death)
Today...
Pip has got a new friend, Mocha, and although they both were happily following, sniffing and cuddling with each other Pip still isn't eating.
Pip has finished all of her antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medication and is completely healthy looking, her eyes are shiny and she has a nice loud squeak. However, despite having a new piggy in the cage she won't eat, drink and often sits in one place and doesn't move. Obviously this concerns me but they have only been socialising for about an hour, how long does it often take and should I continue to syringe feed Pip?
Thank you.
