Teenage Guinea Pig
About 3 weeks ago my Mum came to visit so I had use of her car and was able to take Boris to my preferred vet when Boris showed signs of cystitis. At the time he had blood in his wee and was squeaking when going to the toilet. Ken, the vet, prescribed Baytril but this hasn't seemed to work.
Anyway, this weekend Boris has been really raising himself up on all fours and making horrible straining noises when urinating. He's also only able to pass tiny drops. I wondered if he might have a bladder stone as the symptoms seem to be similar to when Babs had one. As I have no transport to take Boris to my other vet, I took him to the local one who I've not been to before. He said Boris had blood in his wee and we should try him on different antibiotics and painkiller. I'm really worried as I'm convinced Boris may well have a stone. What should I do?
