mostly because blaze had squishy poop this morning.
But his sore leg has not resolved itself....

The poor wee boy has an inflammed hip. So is now on a favourite of guinea pigs meloxidyl (aka meloxicam aka metacam).

He is also getting fibreplex (1mg 2-3 times daily) for his tummy issues to prevent the soft poops that is a side effect and I am also giving him biolapis as well....

I'd avoid the veggies for about 48 hours until his tummy is better. Hope Blaze's hip is better soon :)
 
Thanks for the update Helen. Poor little guy, I do hope he is feeling better very soon. The Metacam should ease any pain and inflammation. Let us know how he does over the next few days.
