Any Short Term Advice?

Hi all.
About a month ago I had to take George to the vets as s/he wasnt eating. I was told that there was a slight mouth infection and was prescribed baytril. I made sure that the complete course was taken and George began to eat again. Hooray I thought!
Well now George is off food again. I thought the last few days may of been because my mum was staying and he was sulking with a strange face in the house.
Tonight Col and I have managed to have a good look in Georges mouth and the roof is red and sore looking. I'm gonna ring the vet first thing in the morning but is there anything I can do in the short term for it if they cant get me in tomorrow??

Re: Any Short Term Advice?

Well we've just got back from the vets. George doesn't have any infection in the mouth any more so that was just me being paranoid! But the vet wasnt happy about George's belly so he done an x-ray this is wot we found.
George is a girl and is gravid! so beta stop calling her a 'good boy'!! i think my face was a picture!

Funny that even when we're "gender confused" our igs aren't! Glad the vet visit went well!
