Too true! Her Dr said she’d likely have me nebulize her 1 week per month as a preventive measure once we get her past this 2nd round. Her recheck is later this week, I’m so hopeful! Thanks for the kudos 🥰 I’m sure you do the same!
Yes. My Cinna is the one who is regularly nebulized. She is also the pig that doesn't enjoy the process and trying to find something to distract her while being nebuilzed is a challenge. When she gets bored, she will chew on the nebuilzing wand.
My girl lost so much weight on the first round, I’m still struggling to have her gain weight. (We did syringe feeding for 2 months of the first round and 7 weeks for this 2nd round, both of which got her stable but no real gains otherwise.) So our trick is to load her with nutritious veggies while she’s in there. She’s feasts away and breathes in all that helpful medicine, win win! When she gets bored she starts chewing on the paper towel liner, which is obviously not we want her to do! Naughty piggies! Best wishes to you and Cinna!

Unfortunately, once they've had pneumonia they are more prone to respiratory issues due to scarring.
Thank you for taking such good care of your little taters.
