Clover, "Lano and Dodo are both 2 years old. Unfortunately poor Milano has had a rough go of it. Naturally she was preggers when I got her at 3 months old and had 3 lovely babies-two survived. Then she had an ear tumor removed, then she had TWO strokes, is blind and ALSO has severe allergies! NOW she has TONS of fluid in her abdomen which is restricting her breathing. She is taking Lasix which helps a little. The vet has said to just keep her comfortable. What ever she has-cancer,tumors,diabetes,etc. will probably eventuall kill her but for now she's still chowing down and seems happy. Breaks my heart as she is sooooo sweet. Bordeaux is a stinker! But I LOOOOVE them so much!

Awwww! Your two piggies are cuties! Which one is which?
I had a pig that had a similar problem to your little Milano (re: the fluid). When I got Lucy she had three babies, one survived and is still with me (and is 5). So very similar circumstances.
I'd love to see more pics!! Your babies are just sooo adorable!

Oh I'm sorry Milano has suffered so many problems, but I'm glad she seems happy. I had a blind guinea pig when I was a young girl. Its amazing how they adapt isn't it. Even though he was born blind, he still managed to chase my female piggy Fluff around the garden, his sence of smell made up for his lack of sight. I really hope she stays stable for a long time to come, they are both gorgeous piggies

Al, The black and white one is Milano and the other one is Bordeaux. So what caused the fluid in your piggie, do you know? Did you keep her on Lasix forever or did it go away eventually? I saw your pigs on Jackie's site and thwy are adorable- aren't they all?! Does anyone know what kind my long-haired Bordeaux is? I don't know if she's a sheltie or Peruvian or what. to yoy all.....Beth
