Oscar, was so poorly and has been for 10 days now, he doesn't look like our Oscar in this photo, quite frail and ill.... hes had the antibiotics, pain killers and more medication than an elephant probably. He was ever so poorly on Saturday, but Nikki from the vets prescribed a little heavier painkiller, and we gave it to him in his fav food. He was able to briefly stand to eat, but today, he just seemed to give up really. Spoke with Peter from the vets, he's got pigs so he knows what its like I guess. We discussed any ways forward, and there wasn't really any. The kindest thing for him to be out of pain was to put him to sleep, so that's what we did today. It was quite awful, but very right for him. I don't think we will invest in another boar but will borrow one when needed. I think Peters got one we can use....So farewell Oscar, we will miss his quirky personality.XXXX
