the picture of her with the frangipanis is painted on the wall of my work alongside my dog that passed away and current pets. i love that picture it will stay with me forever. i'm just so heartbroken, when i woke up today and realised its all real tears started again. i know everyone thinks...

I haven't been on for ages and i never thought this would be the message i would be posting... Bangbang passed away this morning, I dont know what happened. Mum called me a work hysterical she found her in the cage lying there and she died in Mums arms. She was fine yesterday. She looked totally...

What about diet, what's the best plan?

It's such a learning curve atm, just trying to find out as much info as I can and adapt that knowledge to work for us. Thanks for all the ongoing advice and support it’s really important to have somewhere you can come to discuss these sorts of matters, I really appreciate it!

Regarding the sludge: we did repeat x-rays 2 weeks ago and there was a small amount of sludge, the vet felt that it may have been a small amount left over from the operation. We also tested the ph level and it was slightly elevated. We continue to monitor her urine ph every few weeks. X-rays we...

I will look into the water filter actually as here in perth the water is pretty hard. She has always drunk from a bowl she wouldnt drink from a bottle :) As for how much she's drinking I'm not sure she has a large ceramic bowl as she used to throw her other bowl around when she was angry...

it wasn't like KABLAMO she's fat, as for their actual age i was going on what the vet told me so its probably a load of bs. They both were growing at the same rate but over say the last 1-2 weeks she's grown bigger but only in the abdomen area. When my ratties were preggies they had that same...

All the pigs are female, she would have got pregnant when she was a stray.

Sorry another point, but isn't she too young to have babies!!!!!!!!!! she IS a baby and wouldnt it be dangerous!?

Hi all I need some advice and any links that are good would be appriciated. I have an existing guinea pig she's 2 yrs old, name is Endo, she lives alone, well she is Bangbangs neighbour she's fond of Bangbang, my dog Marley grub and our other creatures. However she is bonded to Bangbang yet...

Thanks for that, my biggest issue with the low calcium diet is exactly that, she needs calcium for bones etc so cutting it out is just absurd! I meant to write "hay and occasionally apple/carrot" Bangbang spends most of her time outside, her cage is outside and she free ranges in the yard...

Just one more little vent to get it off my chest!! I'm just so frustrated as even the vets that know the most still seem to be so behind! In the end it’s her life on the line if they give out incorrect or inadequate information. My biggest concern is where this is all heading, without the...

Hi all, she's doing much better. I'm really not happy with the vet that saw her everything she said seems to contridict what the other vet told us. Bangbangs doing well I ended up giving her critical care, hay (and carrot out of desperation). Her poops are looking good now, she's weeing...
