I've a male gp now at my home who I guess is not going to live much longer all because of some irresponsible owners. Here's the story. Yest on Sat, my aunt called me & said that she found an abandoned gp in a cage at the lift lading. So she picked it up & brought home. Since she doesn't know what to feed it, she called me. She told me that the gp was in a very bad shape so I asked her to bring it over to my home. It was a pitiful sight. I'm not sure how old or what breed the gp is. It's soooo thin & sickly. It also stank. When I gave it hay & pellets, it didn't eat all till the next morning (today). I gave him a gd bath & force feed the critical care. He can't even swallow it. The nails were curved in & it lost some fur. I think he's even younger than my 3yr old gps. Now it's lying by its side in its cage. Oh ya it can't even stand on its own feet. Its too weak I guess. I really hope it'll get better & not pass away. I just wish to nurse it back to health. Some pet owners are too much.I can see that its owner neglected it for a long time. I asked my aunt to make a complaint to the town councils as it's not the 1st time. Prev, someone also abandoned 2 rabbits which my aunt also picked up & looked after. She later gave them away for adoption. So sad! anyway took some pictures of the gp.   |

Oh dear... that's awful!!  This piggie definitely has some peruvian blood in it... It's quite cute too! Poor thing..keep us updated, yeah? Hope it doesn't die... continue handfeeding the critical care... and maybe some fruits and veggies too.. *sniff* does it have any wounds? Good thing your aunt found it before it passed on.. Such irresponsible people. Where does ur aunt stay? |

Hi. Thanks for yr concern. The piggy is still weak. The prob is it doesn't wanna eat anything & it doesn't even want to swallow the critical care! It doesn't even drink water. I tried feeding thru syringe but its mouth is always full because it doesn't want to swallow. What to do in that case?

The piggy has been put to sleep by the vet. It seems all the organs are in very bad condition. She said that it won't survive. Its about 3yrs old...the same as my own piggies. Such a pity..a young life is lost because of some cruel people.

I guess he has shrunk because he didn't eat for days. Ya the doc actually said the heartbeat is very very slow and that the organs have failed & that's why he can't even swallow anything. Pity the piggy. Such a young life lost....

Oh because when I tried to login, it asked me for the birthday, I just clicked anyhow. In the end, the message said only pple above 13 years can join! after that, i couldn't login again. So i created another acct but typed angelic9 instead of angelic8 by mistake. Dind't realise it until you told me! nvm from now on..i shall be known as angelic9 then.
