Guinea pig has been limping.

Hello,
My guinea pig, Lily, is limping today during floor time. I checked up on her and she was curling one of her front paws in, but she was still playing and asking for food. I’m not sure if it’s a sprain or she broke it somehow. Yesterday she seemed ok, no limping. I’m taking her to the vet soon, as today they are currently closed, but in the meantime, what should I do?

Please get her seen by a vet ASAP for X-ray/examination to rule out a fracture. Your vet will probably give anti inflammatory medication if there is no break. If it is fractured that does count as an emergency.
