My friend has a five year old piggy. He was feeling a little sluggish yesterday and not eating well. My friend brought him to the vet this morning (a stand in, hers was unavailable), when she went the piggy was mostly normal, just hadn't been eating much or pooping. But his eyes were bright, no drooling, not acting too abnormally, just a little tired.
The vet gave him fluids and said it was likely from the heat in the room yesterday (it was abnormally hot where we live). Now the little guy has a very hard belly and is squeaking in pain!! His eyes are watery now, too. She gave him gas relief drops and they didn't help. What can she do?? Any advice at all?? She is trying to get him back to the vet but is afraid they screwed up with the fluids and doesn't want them to make it worse.
Please help!!
