Junior Guinea Pig
I feel very stressed and panicked as I write this. So one of my guinea pigs who is 3yrs 7mo suddenly got diarrhea tonight, at 1am. He's on medication fir a UTI, including a painkiller which says "stop using if it causes diarrhea or vomitting". Plus he's had to deal with a stressful past couple of weeks with travelling. So all things considered, not too surprised but I am worried. He's been eating but hasn't been acting quite as greedy as normal.
Currently, I'm keeping him warm, syringing water and selective recovery plus every now and then, and I'm going to mash a couple of poops from my other guinea pig into the selective recovery plus. I was wondering of anyone else had any other suggestions on what I can do until I can get him to a vet? Unfortunately I don't drive and I don't think my parents would be willing to get him seen at 2am when he has a vet appointment Wednesday. But I do plan on getting him to the vets ASAP tomorrow morning and staying up with him tonight
