choking

He was doing so much better. He wasn't eating but he wanted to. He no longer wants to. He won't close his mouth with syringe feeds, he's losing weight. It feels like it happened overnight. He stopped pooping all of a sudden. We took him to 3 hospitals. When I last saw him, about 2 days ago...

So about 20-25 mins ago my (roughly) 2 year old Guinea Pig dunkin was choking. We aren't sure on what specifically but we were able to get him breathing again. But even though he's breathing again and his lips aren't white anymore I still worry he isn't fully well. He's panting or wheezing in a...

My guinea pig has been making these congested almost hooting noise for a few weeks, although these sounds aren’t consistent, she’ll be quiet for like 5 days before making the same noise and only after she chokes does she stop making the noise. I have a link at the bottom for a video. She’s...

Hello all, I'm very worried about my guinea pig. I have an emergency guinea pig specialist vet appointment tomorrow morning. A couple of days ago I noticed my 3 and a half year old female guinea pig taking longer to eat than usual. She was chewing but she was taking ages to consume...

Hey guys I’m new to the forum, my piggy Rupert seems to be trying to cough or maybe be choking ? Making a coughing noise and his body is making strong jerky movements. but he is still eating whilst doing so? Unsure what to do because he’s happily eating but is also doing these things too? If...

My guinea pig, Alexander, has been developing dried boogers lately. Its kind of funny because food or paper bedding gets stuck out of his nose (which makes him look silly) but at the same time, I don't know if I should worry or not. I always use paper bedding but I never used Pine or wood...

Hi, I'm sorry if this is the wrong topic to post this in! I recently adopted another guinea pig, he's around 2 or 3 years old. Unlike my first piggie, he drinks from the water bottle by putting his entire mouth around it. I'm not sure if this is cause for concern, I was thinking he may choke...

Hi there! I'm a new Guinea pig owner and have had two 5 month-olds for about a month. Tonight as I was feeding one of them veg he coughed really loudly (scared the crap out of me and his buddy). I thought he had just gotten something stuck in his throat and he seemed fine. Then ten minutes...

Okay so I was just sitting watching Toast eat her pellets (I have a sad life:lose:) and she started to choke on one... my heart sunk because I realised I wouldn't have a clue how to help her. Luckily she wasn't choking she just had a bit stuck in her teeth, but I still panicked because I'd be...
