Hi All
You've all helped me out before so hoping you can again, I've had the unfortunate event of finding one of my girls has died during the day completely out of the blue. I know guinea pigs should not be kept solitary but after speaking to my ex (their previous owner) she said that she had been told that they were at an age where they should/couldn't be bonded with another pig?
I know it might sound heartless thinking about getting another and as upset as I am, I'm also really worried about the health of my other girl and not wanting to run the risk of her effectively dying from loniless. Also for a bit of context I do also have a boar side by side with them who was constantly nuzzling through the bars with the one I just lost where as the other one ignores him so thats also a worry.
