Get well soon poor wee Velvet ..... She has been through the wars . Hopefully she is on the mend now x
 
Very glad to hear about your vet's positive comments. My granddaughters and I are going to our cavy club today and we will ask all the members to send healing vibes south-west to Velvey.
 
Ruby sends ruby smooches,saydee sends a lick on the nose, toby sends his chew bone (I didn't have the heart to tell him Piggys don't chew bones as its his prized possession), patch sends his favorite toy (which is a empty mini soda bottle), Gus sends all the hay one can eat,s'mores sends a sneaky boy kiss shhh don't tell anyone he says, Choco send his hay ball with bell, prissy sends her squeaky giraffe (only toy she will fight over) . Trooper kitty sends a meow,and leg rub, colby sends his soft fluffy blankie. Last but not least captain and Sargent the Betta's send thier rather impressive bubble nest they've work on for a few days.

Oh yeah....me sends hugs smoochies and get well soons!

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww THANKYOU ALL XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX


Dear Toby, Velvet says thanks for the chew bone, she has it sitting beside her and now Bella is VERY ENVIOUS (Bella is our border collie :)) )
and she thanks you all very much and noooooooo she wont breathe a wheeek about the kisses from 'you know who' x)
 
How is she today? xx

SHe dis a very large bloody wee yesterday and really wheeeeeeeeeked, i was trying to just give her metacam once a day, so i immediately gave her a drop. She now has a drop morning and night.

I'm crossing fingers we don't have any more blood......

Just how long can this happen for?

Velvet actually wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeked yesterday morning when i said i'm going to get some greeeeeeeeeeeen spaghetti ........ as you can imagine a huge smile on my face and some little tears of joy x)

She had to have a butt bath as her quiff was quite manky (wet and smelly) and had poop stuck to her, i couldn't leave her like that, it wasn't too cold (glad i did it yesterday as it was only 3 degrees this morning!) so i did just a quick wash and then thoroughly dried her off. She was happy cause she had some cucumber to distract her.
 
Glynis! Just wanted to let you know Velvet is in our thoughts. Great to hear her wheek for grass :)) And 3 degrees?!?!?!?! That is FREEZING! I forgot it's not summer for you :red Gilbert isn't feeling his best either, so he can sympathize with Velvet. He says he hopes they both get better together! And wanted to send her a big PIGGYLICIOUS kiss!xoxo
 
THANKS GILBERT AND AMELIA XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

OMG i just saw your thread........ please tell Gilby his aussie friends are very very worried and sending him uber duper super healing vibes xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 
Stan had a butt bath yesterday and he wanted to say 'omg velvet, why do we have to go through this stuff'

Sending more vibes to your girl x

She really wheeeeked loudly this morning so i upped the metacam to 2 drops this morning........ i really don't like all this metacam and baytril in her system i know it's mucking up her eating :(
I searched for the wee but it wasn't red..... ?/
She's getting probiotics twice a day, sometimes three times.
 
Just a thought...you said she loves the baytril...is it possible she's learned that if she wheeks loudly mommy forks over the tasty stuff she likes? I mean it could be totally possible she is in pain so please don't think me daft ...just my boys are quite rotten and smart to learn patterns . Have had to have hubby fetch patch for me because of having to doctor his ear three times a day for the stupid ringworm and now when he sees me or the cream tube (food in hand or not) he runs into the pigloo and we have to fight him to get him out of the cage. Hes usually at the front begging for food or nose rubs...so hubs goes to fetch him out tonight and he had to chase him...he is like I know it's coming and your gonna have to chase me LOL CHEEKY !
Lots of love to velvie (and onyx too)

Hey Sweetie thought I would check in here as not seen updates on digest.

Sounds like your having a real rollercoaster of a time there.

Hope Velvey is now on the road to recovery and that you will be telling us how well she is soon.

Big hugs to you, you must be wrung out with all the ups and downs.

Boys send piggy love to you alls.

Keeping everything crossed for Velvet, hope there's some light at the end of the tunnel soon. We have been nursing a poorly Buzz for the last couple of weeks but he is much brighter now which is good. It's all very worrying when they're so poorly.

17/8/12 update

OK well whee haven't had bloodied wee's for a couple of days now! PHEW (not since tuesday)
BUT......... she is wheeeking when peeing.....so she's back on Patrick Juice (aka pearl barley) i'd taken her off as she wasn't wheeking mallethead
Poor baby is getting pretty sick of the meds tho.....
Her weight isn't too bad she was 115g this morning, i've given her a tiny bit of CC the past two night at 2am feed instead of veg as she was getting a bit mucky again i think it was my fault for her eating too many veggies mallethead
I get very upset when i hear her wheeek as i just hope that it's not anything else .....

Glad that she's still doing okay. Keep going Velvet and hugs to you Glynis! x
 
Aww, I'm sorry she's still a bit under the weather, but glad she still seems well. I hope the Patrick juice works and she feel a bit more comfortable soon :)


P.S the girls say thankies for the cucumber juice and sorry for making Auntie Glynis kerplunk :))
 
Wonderful that the bleeding has finally stopped. I am so sorry that she is still in pain though. Hope that with the bleeding stopped, that might soon sort itself. Don't blame the poor girl for getting fed up with all the meds.
 
Glad to hear that she's on the mend!

Glynis, you say the bleeding has stopped; have you caught a sample and taken it for testing? There may not be sufficient blood for it to be visible, but there may still be blood there.

It'll do no harm to continue the barley water though. Do you have access to cystaid or cystease? This worked wonders for Cameo after her op with the bloody/painful urine.
 
I spoke too soon :( :0
Yes Amanda I'd been taking samples and I was going to take one in next week. Found blood tonight when cleaning and I know it's from Velvey :(
I'm pouring the Patrick juice into her and have her on a stuff for UTI

Mummy said she would love it if you guys make her kerplunk again -c
