When hand feeding make it watery so easier to swallow. Warm it to room temperature. If have a unused clean(new) blender try blending some veggies and add the juice to the mix. You must also get water into her. Take it slow and make sure she swallows.
I like the name Angel! Good luck! It was meant to be she found you. She will finally find and know love! Keep us posted!

Thank you Lynx, ItsaZoo and Daisymay..for all well wishes and advices. I will look up to it, for sure.
She ate some critical care agin..i dont have to work tomorrow, i sort it out cause of her behaviour..so..we can go to vet even if it doesnt improve or to pet store to get more tasty food.. altough all others prefered vegetables from our garden more..which i guess its logical.
It is a bit too much to be honest. She s anoxious, for sure. Hope otherwise healthy.
For all reading this it dont do it if you are not 100% and i wasnt even,..in the past i always was.
As for name angie(from stones song), but i tought maybe Winnie, cause of all circusmates..they called her pig, so i call her pig, for now.

I believe your piggies in heaven lead you to this piggy! Open your heart to this piggy! You aren't replacing your old piggies! You are using your knowledge to help a piggy in need! Don't be afraid to love and get hurt!
Close your eyes and remember back when your piggies put a smile on your face or made you laugh. Give this piggy a chance! She needs you and your love! If I lived closer I'd take her in a heart beat even though I have five. Every piggy deserves love!

Thanks you are so kind and positive and i really respect that, i am not so resilient. ITs just no time for thoose emotional attachement right now.
We had slepless night.
I just try to stay focused, cause she s still not eating. We will try with some vegetables again. I will go in pet store than and i will see what i can buy even if dry mealworms(yuck!)-if she loves it. Just for now. We can cheat everything just to get through.
I will call vet in the afternoon if she still wont be eating so we visit tomorrow. IF something goes off till than i cant do anything more than.forcefed.
We are also going to buy some of this wall on wheels so she will be bit more separated from Ziggy. (Irie had his own room..that i was in too).
If anybody has anymore ideas, bring it on, please. And we do not give up as Mo Salah says..and we never did..but sure is rough start. Very.

Try using a new potato peeler and peel some carrots. Try cherry tomatoes and cucumber. She may have a sweet tooth! Good luck! Holiday here. Chop veggies into small pieces and see if that helps. Hay too. Weigh daily. If going to vet take poop and urine samples for testing.
I gave her danadelion, grass, carrots, cucumber, apple...she doesnt want it.She was jumpingaround in her house hope she at least touched some food. she is pooping and urinating..so some cc must get into her, if she really aint eating 0 on her own as it seems.
And sorry for not replying i got so sick in my stomach i couldnt eat myself nothing..and you can hardly forcefed yourself cause i knew all will go out.:S;), but i ve been there before,..
I will goto pet store in the afternoon and called the vet..no matter how sick i feel and of course it got on my nerves.
Its our last ride with pigs anyway-this time for real...so..still hoping for turn around..

We ordered huge parcel from petshop cause i decided to go to vet today...we even ordered some meal worms..;p.
We got some supplies like vitamin C..and all that..it costed a lot..and lets be honest-the vet didnt see anything i didnt see..so..but we got criticalcare package and vitamin C and we bought some hay as well.
VEt said she thinks the pig is stressed out. But i tought of more clinical examination-what if its something else, too..thats what bothers me.
My brother went with us as i was so sick..lol..he said..i shouldnt be taking the pig cause there would be problems (From people like i did)..and he was right..
However..i named the pig Winnie.
and idont expect nothing frome exotic vets, i am not bothered.
Those available right now arent on the same level as our-dog cats vets-no way.So no worries. And the ones that didnt help properly for whatever reason we left them behind quite some time ago.
And i always wished our old exotic vet would stay in the business..but he didnt so..we dealt with others. And we will now too..
As for Winnie character-after all-i dont wanna critisize her character-in dog world we said..good trainer works with every dog. I always just laughed cause Ringo was best to work with anyway.
so even if she has unstable and bit of anoxious character and sensitive..so what..she will adapt-i will help her- if she can start eating on her own..all i can do is take her to another exotic vet for second oppinion on her physical condition..

My stomach is better..
She s pretty much the same. She decided she likes forcefeding, now.
She still refuses vegetables and i didnt see her eating hay..i hope she at least did take some..but i havent heard or seen her doing it.
Forcefeding schedule left for today is:
13. 10ml; 17 10ml 21. 10ml; 00.00:10ml and then i need to go to sleep some and we continue in 5. in the morning tomorrow.
Parcel will come tomorrow morning. We will order wall in the evening so i can move her to much larger cage.
On friday i ll call the vet if she doesnt start eating hay. It would be great result if we dont have, too..

Winnie ate some saladwhile i was gone..
I am very mad at her.
All my other pigs were so tough-they had much more serious health issues and they didnt behave like hipohondriac:S
Lee had severe malocussion yet he was so smart, happy and confident like champion..he went through many surgeries and he had dental x-rays and all of that done..but he never lacked of enthusiasm..Irie was like a dog too..like Šarplaninac..always power on full on, nothing could have stop him, ever. Galli without leg and double infection was stillso social, he loved to cuddle, he whistled running around-really.
Kluivertka came from school where 30kidsw ere shouting. She was sensibile-yes but determinated too..and so sweet.Yet she never gave up.
And Winnie well-they didnt care for her..was some childrens toy..great. But they kept all accesories so they would probably get new one when baby to be born grow up..i am sick, literally..BEside helping herwe didnt solve nothing.
Even my brother said..i think this pig is joking around..well..she was.. anyway Sardonic_Smile was right with early diagnosis-thank you and all others!
And better to be joking around than..have troubles anyway..and if she s not tough, she ll learn to be. She already knows what ajde, ajde means.
ITs agility expression of go, go go go and go!so..:). But cause of her wierd behavior still, i ll keep on watching..
