seizure

Hi guys. I have been to the vets but something quite awful happened earlier today yen had one what I think was a seizure. There was a weird noise like one of my pigs jumped, and I looked over and yen was in the corner twitching and unresponsive. I pulled her out and had her on my lap on a...

My guinea pig gave birth 4 days ago to 5 babies, one of them was born weighing only 41g which rapidly dropped to 34g, we are pretty sure he was blind in one eye and were awaiting vets, we were syringe feeding him every 1.5 hours, but the last couple days, he kept having it where he would go...

Hi all, about two hours ago my 8 year old piggy started seizing during a nail clip. We’re just back from the vets (decided to go for an emergency call out as the seizure lasted 5+ minutes) and we have drugs now. I’m mainly looking for advice on aftercare. She’s currently very quiet and sleeping...

My 4 and a half year old Guinea pig suddenly went downhill this morning. We came down to her not being able to move properly and eating slightly. We took her to the vet and her eyes weren’t responding to light, and she had a slight head tilt. We were prescribed gut medication, lexicom and...

So my piggie is definitely a weird one, she’s veryyy special 🤣, slow, if you will LOL. So I’ve always thought this thing she does was just another one of her weird quirks with no explanation. Everytime we have her out of her enclosure, like on the floor in a room, or on a bed or couch, she’ll...

So I own two female guinea pigs, and my Abyssinian, who is 6 in May, displayed some concerning behaviour today. She was layed down comfortably next to my other piggy, when suddenly she let out an annoyed squeak. I rushed over to check on her and saw that whilst she looked asleep, her eyes were...

A couple of weeks ago my guinea pig suffered from a stroke. There was no particular reason or cause it just happened out of nowhere. He is getting older now and he's approaching 3 years old so his age could be the reason. I wasn't there to witness his stroke but there are a few easy symptoms to...

My guinea pig was ill 4 days back, he suddenly stopped eating and moving therefore we force fed him. He recovered very well and even was playing around. Yesterday suddenly he stopped using his fore limbs, to which the vet thought was just a sprain He was eating well but dragging his body. Today...

Sorry for a messy post I'm posting this from the mobile site. Basically I went out to feed my pigs yesterday evening and immediately saw that there was something seriously wrong with Joshie (Male,2 years old), wrong to the point of me automatically bursting into tears and saying he was dying. He...

Hi all I noticed my one year old pig today had a random head tilt today and was standing very still, the other two pigs were around him squealing? He ran off to hide in a hidey and his head was still tilted to the side with a slight twitch. They all have fresh vegetables and hay daily and this...

I received two guinea pigs from my ex-boyfriends brother because they were neglected and they have been in a loving home since, but Charlie has been acting very strange and i'm extremely worried. I haven't been able to find anything online about it and I won't have money to take him to the vet...
