I went with my gut instinct & took Potter to the vet for her stitch removal 7 days post-op--she had a tough time 10 days post-op last time around,last March --her hair & skin had grown in so well, she's such a healthy pig, that Dr Hughes had a hard time taking out her stitches back then.   So I made an app't for her 7 days after & made the right decision--Dr Hughes took out her stitches, so she's a done deal, except for general check-up's.  If she hadn't been ready for her stitch removal, I'd have just taken her back a few days later--no big deal.

Does anyone know about a baby who's eyesight isn't the best?  Emma seems to not see her treats when I put them in front of her--needs a little direction.  I've had my doubts about her eyesight from the time she was born (here, she's Molly's baby, 6 months old now)--I know pig's eyesight isn't great anyway, Emma just seems to have a hard time focusing & I'm really beginning to wonder if she really has sight problems.   I'd appreciate any advice.   Thanks!  Deb, Potter, Molly & Emma
