I got up this morning to see my littlest piggy huddled in the corner of his cage, food untouched. He seemed fine at about 1am when I went to bed. I tried to tempt him with some cucumber this morning, but he took it off me, then didnt eat it. Hurried him off to the vets for 10am, but she cant see anything obviously wrong. She gave him Vitamin B which apparently stimulates his appetite, and some baytril in case theres any infection somewhere, but all she said was come back tomorrow if he's any better (like its that or he's dead!). Ive given him some probiotic in the hope he drinks it.
What else can I do? He's always been a sickly piggy, he was a runt and the mother rejected him at birth, didnt even break him out of the sack. Im just trying to tempt him atm, given him his favourite hay and veggies, he sort of nosed at it a bit, but nothing more than a little nibble. Im so worried. My normal Vet wasnt about, and Im not totally sure of this new one.
