Casper tummy

Hi my guinea pig Casper when I feel his tummy is making a squelching sound is this normal he is acting completely fine otherwise

I think what you don’t want is silence from their tummy. If you are worried there is no harm in getting him checked out just to be on the safe side.

I think it’s something I felt in him that squelched my guinea pig Binky is triaged at the vets with a poorly gut and gas would it be cheeky to bring Casper when we pick her up to get the vet to feel him too?

You can only ask but it’s often one appointment per animal so they may not do it without a separate appointment

It depends what you mean by squelching though. You should be able to hear gurgling all the time. A silent gut is a concern
