[Gpdd] Health: Ear Infection

[nicola atton]

Hi, I've not posted for rather a long while, but one oof my guinea pigs, 
Ruby, has an ear infection. I took her to the vets on Saturday and he 
prescribed her some antibiotics. When I took her she was still acting pretty 
normal apart from her head being wonkey. But her appetite has gradually gone 
down. I think today she might be picking up again and her head is a lot 
straighter than it was. But she's still hardly eating anything. I've been 
syringe feeding her water even though she seems to be drinking ok, just to 
make sure that she is drinking plenty. I was just wondering if any of you 
has some wonderful trick to try and get to eat properly again. She seems 
fine in herself apart from sleeping a lot more then usual and she is still 
very inquisitive so I think it is just the antibiotics making her feel a bit 
queasy.

Thanks for any help you can give me, Nicola

P.S. I know a lot of people reccomend feeding pumpkin pie filling but we 
brits don't eat pumpkin pie so nowhere sells it.
