We aren't exactly sure of the location, but the assistant told us it was...

    Liquid from nose

    Possible neurological issues

    I'm going to say this straight off the bat, I suck at describing what's going on. This is going to be a long one since everything kind of needs a backstory first. But I've been seeing my guinea pig do this for a few days now and after what happened today, I knew I needed to trust myself even...

    Sneezing Piggie

    Please Help

    I got a guinea pig 9 days ago. She is acting normal, but today suddenly this lump started to grow under her chin. It doesn't bother her when I touch it. What could it be?

    Sick Guinea Pig, Skinny And Chewing On Her Legs
