Mr. Piggy Hooting

- 4 the Good of all Pigs
Damn it! I can hear it clear across the room.
Mr. Piggy is guesstimated to be around 5-5 1/2 years old. He was a classroom pig that went home with a teacher. After about a year at her house, her and her son's allergies got too bad and they rehomed him. This was last year. I picked him up in Orlando, if anyone remembers the thread in Cavy Placement.
He's been a healthy boy for the year that I've had him. Not tolerating any pig but Ozzy.
Yes, I'm calling the vet as soon as they open and getting him in there. I wanted to start the thread because I am sure many questions will follow.

Thank you guys. Yes, CM, hooting is more than likely a sign of enlarged heart. Read the heart sticky to learn more.
Weaver, I agree. We have had MORE than our fair share of vet visits and medicine giving lately. Can we just a have a few months with healthy pigs darn it!?

- You can quote me
StF, let me know if you need "heart backup" with the lovely and talented Dr. A. Print out all the heart stuff from here. If she wants case histories and a veterinary reference (Dr. Leck, now in Tucker) for heart treatment, let me know. Cell, email, page, whatever. I'm gonna be in there tomorrow afternoon with a recheck for one of ours, too.

Okay, this is enough.
Too many of our precious babies are feeling unwell!
Sending good thoughts to Mr. Piggy, I hope an X-ray and heart meds will be able to resolve these symptoms quickly.
