I'm glad he's continuing to perk up, that's great news. And nice that he's enjoying a little attention too - even though I know you love him how he is, I'm sure you are enjoying him chilling out with you just a little.

Bit of a setback yesterday Bean hunni, he didn't appear to be eating much at all. However I have just put lunch in and he is coming out. I am watching him closely though and making sure he isn't just going up to the food and pretending to eat it, wily little monkeys that they are lol! Whilst I am on here, Paul is on sentry duty and apparently he is dragging food into his cuddle cup so we will have to investigate more closely later on and look for little munch marks.
Thank you for your kind comments and concern ladies, it is much appreciated.
Hugs Jo xx

How is Merley today, Jo? I hope his little setback the other day was nothing serious and he's back on good form again. Is he still hiccuping? Give him a cuddle from me please - just a quick one so he doesn't get fed up with me! x

Thank you Bean darling that is so sweet and Merley says thank you for his cuddle and that he could never get fed up with you. He has stopped his hiccupping but isn't eating very much we have noticed. We are still syringing orange juice even though we have seen him drink, it is so difficult to know exactly what to do. I don't think we will win in the end as he is an old piggy and this is distressing me greatly. Thank you for your concern love and I will keep you updated. Hugs JO xx

Aww I'm sorry he's not got much of an appetite. Is his weight dropping significantly or does he just feel thinner? Has the vet got anything else to try or suggest? It's awful when you can see something isn't right but there aren't any easy answers, but I will keep rooting for Merley and hope he perks up soon. xx

Rooting for Merley here, too. It's great that he's drinking on his own, and I really hope he bounces back all the way

I am afraid Merley passed yesterday love, in the afternoon. I will write a proper post in the appropriate section.
