Junior Guinea Pig
Hi everyone, so sorry that I only seem to post when I have an issue! Bramble has been to the vets today as he gets quite gassy. He has been on cisapride 3 times a day after a nasty case of not eating after an antibiotic & I have got him down to 1 dose a day.
Vets have checked him over & said he does have a bit of gas but nothing worrying & have said to stop the cisapride & see what happens? I’m so scared in case he bloats?
They also said that the gas could be dietary & to reduce the 3 types of hay he gets & 2 types of pellet (we have a 4mth old & 1 of the pellets is for adults). Does anyone think that hay /pellets could cause gas?
As for fresh veg he gets a mixture of red pepper, romaine hearts, sweet / little gem, cucumber.
I went feeling good as it was just a check up & now I’m so wound up! x
