PigglePuggle
Senior Guinea Pig
Thanks everyone, things were going so well! She has hay and pellets right by her sleeping bag entrance, I'll try a bit of fresh syringe feed and pro C before bedtime. The next door piggies are very concerned, they are all fussing about nervously near Tallulah's cage, especially Puggle who understands upset tummies, she's wheeking frantic piggy tummy advice through the bars and running up and down, there must be a "bad piggy tummy smell" they can detect!
I think I'd rather give recovery food and pro C seperately right now @SkyPipDotBernie , I think there is vit C and probiotic in recovery food, but I was going to syringe a bit of water anyway so it might as well have pro C in it, and then I can tell the vet tomorrow exactly how much water she's had and how much syringe feed... also pro C seems to taste good and recovery food doesnt so it might keep her hydrated. Unless I syringe fed too much water already worrying she'd be dehydrated? So many what-ifs with sick piggies, but at least this is a new-since-6pm today thing and the vet check is at 12.20 tomorrow!
