It has had many but not many people comment which is odd. They said Marble had her dressing changed today and is eating more. She is still on pain relief so cannot come home. I never thought she would be in so long. It has been two weeks on Monday. I miss her like hell and I am worried the girls will forget her. Thank you so much for caring, Amanda.
 
Hi Piggyfan - I want you to know I check in on Marble daily and i am very hopeful she will be home soon but in the meantime she is in the best hands.

Huge hugs - even although she is in the best place it doesn't stop us missing them. xx
 
Thank you so much that is such a lovely thing to hear especially when my family do not want to know. I really appreciate that.

Your piggy family care :))

It feels like ages when they're unwell, Cameo was in the vets for three weeks, plus longer being nursed at home, it felt like months!

Hugs for you and Marble
 
Aww thanks. I remember when poor little Cameo was unwell. It seemed to last for ages.
 
I'm really sorry to read what's happened with Marble, I can't imagine what you are going through right now. Chin up & keep looking forward to the time when she comes home :)
 
:laluot_29: more healing vibes for Marble :laluot_29:

And some (((((BIG HUGS))))) for you. x
 
I don't post much either, but I come on 2 or 3 times each day to look for updates. We do care about Marble, and you - this is so hard for both of you.
 
I called up the vets and they said Marble is eating well and she may be able to come home today! They told me to call back after four to see. I am very excited! I really hope she can come home. She has been there almost two weeks.
 
I am sorry I haven't posted but I check everyday to see how marble is doing! What a strong little fighter she is!

I'm so happy about the news! I really do hope she comes home back to her family. You guys have been through too much but least there is some sunshine and hope.

Lots of love to you and marble x

Got everything crossed for you!

It might be worth cornering off a bit of your cage just for her, A) to limit her movement with her bad leg (the vets will be able to discuss this further) B) so that you can monitor her wees and poos, eating and drinking well, and C) so that you're not putting her straight back in with the other girlies when she smells different and has been away for such a long time.

I'll be expecting a post here at 4.01pm with the news! :))
 
Crossing everything too! Glad she's feeling better. :laluot_03:
 
MARBLE IS HOME!

I am so happy that she is back home. My poor baby has a bandage on but they have used a gel dressing which can be left on for three days rather then the wet dressing which needs to be changed daily. The wound is very deep but they say it is granulating. She has to take metcam and septrim and flagyl antibiotics twice a day. Her poor little mouth is so saw with red skin from being so wet with all the medicine. She also needs to be syringe fed four times a day as her appetite is low.

The re-bonding went amazingly well. I first introduced Amina to her on my bed and Amina spoke to her then Marble tried to cuddle her. This is the first time I have ever seen Marble do that and it really made me cry. She was so vulnerable. Amina then kissed her which was lovely. Next Sophie came over and she groomed her back. Amelia Jane was thrilled and began grooming her and kissing her. Peronel ignored her as she thought food was about! Later on she had both Amina and Amelia Jane cleaning her at the same time. It was so sweet.

The vets said to let her be with the girls right away and not to separate. All is going well. She is very weak but the girls are looking out for her. I even extended the cage and it is now a nice eight by three.

Thank you so much for all the kindness and support. I will keep you all updated and also let you know how she gets on with her appointment on Monday.
 
YAY!

:laluot_06:

I am so pleased shes home and it sounds like you and the girls are too! How sweet that they are looking out for her, having her friends around will help her a lot :)
 
They are so adorable cleaning her and kissing her. I have such special girls. I am so lucky.
 
Awwwww I am pleased she is back home now at long last! Hopefully this will give her the incentive to eat & get better quickly :)
 
I'm so pleased she's safely back home, where she belongs. Looking forward to more progress reports, but it's lovely that the girls are being so sweet and gentle with her.
 
I'm so pleased for you :) WOOHOOOO! xx>>>

Glad the others are looking out for her too x
 
Oh that's great new! :laluot_02:
So glad the girls are looking after her, you must feel all warm and fuzzy inside. (((((hugs)))))
 
I do! I just wish she would take her medication for me. The nurses were so impressed by how well she would take it and said she was a model patient. So why wont she take it for me!
 
Probably because she knows she can wrap you around her little finger!:))

Tell me about it lol! Princess Daisy VEP (Very Expensive Pet according to OH rolleyes ) took her medicine so nicely for Simon the vet last Saturday... now metacam no problems she loves that, but would she take the Zithromax from her slave?

I think you know the answer lol :red:)

They make us feel so bad and cruel for trying to force them to take it!

Yep, Daisy was such a human-friendly piggle before all this, she used to stand still & let me pick her up, not now she doesn't; she runs away :( She is starting to get friendly again, I had a cuddle earlier & got a few squibbles from her (that's what I call "purring!" ) I can't wait for her to get back to normal though rolleyes
