Hello all!

I am very concerned about my pig, Mr. Stinky, and was hoping someone would be able to help. Yesterday I had to travel 7 hours because I’m moving back to school, and stinky came with me. He was in his carrier, which is a bit small for him now seeing as we got it a couple months ago. He seemed fine for a majority of the ride, and I even took him out when we stopped at a gas station so he could stretch his legs. Then when we arrived at the hotel, I took him out of his carrier to see that he had gone pretty limp, but he was still breathing. I had to give him water, and he didn’t eat (he possibly did when I was asleep not sure though). Before I went to bed, I gave him water periodically for about 2 and a half hours and little by little he started standing better again. However, he has developed a head twitch of some sort. They are consistent, not as much violent, but you can definitely see them.
I don’t know what to do and I’ve been freaking out all night, can someone help me?
