Pippin one of my young boys is not feeling well. I am taking him to the vet first thing tomorrow. I think it is an ear infection. He has an head tilt and it looks like something was leaking from his ear. The hair around is sticky. I thought at first it was a fight he is in with another young male. He has now lost any weight and I know he was ok this moring. So please keep him in your thoughts. His dad died not too long ago and I have grown very atched to him.

Well as an up date Pippin's breathing is much better he can breath through his nose again. He is eatting his hay good and drinking lots of water. As for the pellets he is only picking on them but I am sure it will change as the smell returns. As for the bayital it is only for the drop in the ears and on his nose. I have a better Oral for him that will not up set the tummy. The vet I have is worderful in working with them I am just so happy to find a vet like him.

Do you have a probiotic for him?

I'm glad he's eating and drinking, that's definitely a good sign.

Well Pippin is almost as good as new the dranage has stoped. His eye did get infected but I put drops in it now too. Looks like he is going to be fine. He still has a head tilt but not as bad as it was. I worry about him he realy is a woderful boy and he know he has to stick around for me. I told him that he means so much to me and everytime I give him his meds I tell him that I love him. I just could not handel anymore death like this. I came so close of just giveing up but I know I am doing my best and things do happen and it is no one falt.
