[Gpdd] [HEALTH] Flashbang Fatbottom Has an UTI

[Ann Evans]

Jocelyn,
Hi I am Ann from Piggyville. The only thing I will add to the other 
posts regarding Fatbottom's UTI is to NOT give Metacam.  I am not a vet 
but I volunteer for Dr. Frank Bonsack DVM of Adventure Animal Hospital 
as a cavy health advisor. He has never allowed Metacam in his practice 
because of toxicity issues. He always uses Rimadyl. We have seen many 
cavies that other vets had prescribed Metacam with liver damage 
potentially due to Metacam.  Please put your cavy back on rimadyl. 
Cavies are very Rimadyl tolerant. The Cambridge Cavy Trust Guinea Pig 
Hospital has been using Rimadyl in cavies since about 1988 without any 
problems.

Cheers,

Ann and the Rescued Piggys of Piggyville, Tampa Florida USA.
