Hi all! I have three questions: 1. Yogurt: I know that cavy kids are lactose intolerant. What exactly does the intolerance do to them? How do they act? 2. Acidophilus: How do you know how much to give? And how often? 3: Critical care: How does it come? How much do you give? How often?
We recently had two cavy's with abscesses under their chins. We lost one :'(. We had an autopsy performed on her which revealed abscesses/pus pockets in her lungs also. Unknown if the infection in the lungs metastasized to the ones under the chin or vice versa. Remaining cavy currently on antibiotics to continue to shrink them. Abscesses have also been drained and looking MUCH better. However, the remaining cavy is losing weight. I watch him eat, and he eats fine! I don't understand it.
Weight: 6/7/13 1231g
6/11/13 1252g
6/12/13 1232g
6/13/13 1219g 10hrs later: 1187
He acts no different! I just don't get it!
Thank you for all your input!
