Hi all!
I gotta rush my guinea pig to the emergency vet in the morning…only weeks after the death of my last one (due to a mass, not a contagious illness)
I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced anything similar and what the outcome was, or if anyone had any input while I wait...
I’ve posted about my pig Bobby and his bladder stone here Does anyone know what this noise means? (I didn’t wanna keep adding to this thread incase nobody sees this)
Today he’s not pooping normally, I’ve seen 2 poops in about 2 hours. Earlier there was maybe 5 huge poops in one go. He’s...
Hi everyone, my last post here was about one of my boys Bobby who seems to be having some health issues we can’t quite pin. Just wondering if anyone knows for sure what type of noise this is? I’m assuming it’s pain but since I could be wrong just want to double check. I only ever heard it before...
My guinea pig Zebbie is 4 years old and he's recently been ill, but we can't tell what with. We've been trying to help him gain weight after this as he has been in much better spirits and seems to be improving. Through the entire duration he has had critical care feed, pellets and plenty of hay...
my guinea pig Kip is around 6, i just got home from being abroad for just 5 days and straight away noticed his balance is off. hes bumping into things a bit, moving weirdly and fell sideways climbing up a small slope and struggled a small bit getting into one of his beds. my mother’s been caring...
Hello
I just wondered if anyone else has experienced a Guinea pig suddenly drinking a lot on a daily basis. She never used to drink at all, now she's by her bottle alot. The vet has given her rheumocam for a week and it hasn't helped.
I would be grateful for any ideas, thanks

Hi,
I’m hoping someone might have some advice for me.
My male piggy, Dumby has a hard, pea sized lump just above his penis. When I first found it, it was higher in his lower abdomen but it can be moved down to sit at the top of his genitals - it seems to move back and forth by itself and also...

Hello,

Hey guys, sorry I haven’t been around much these days I hope everyone’s keeping well!
So I’m really worried about my Bella, she’s 6 and a half and out of the blue has decided to get bloat. No idea why. The vets near me aren’t particularly experienced and I know how dangerous bloat is so I’m...
Hi everyone!

Hi!
In August I had adopted 3 female piggies (Ginger, Bok choy, and Zucchi). They were housed together before I brought them home and at first they were bonding pretty well with normal interactions such as playing and running together. Soon after bringing her home, Ginger had to be taken to the...

Hi,
My guinea pig Foxy is 4 1/2 years old, and in the last couple of days he’s seemed to lose interest in food and not be as bothered about even his favourite veggies, he’ll have a few small bites and give up. He’s also been more lethargic and sleeping in his safe space that he enjoys. I was...
