I dropped my skinny pig...

[Roselina]

You mentioned your Dad was taking your skinny pig to the vet. When is he going ? I hope he is ok

He's very cute I love his ears, I hope you can get him checked over by the vet and then get him a friend, he looks very young and he will be very lonely on his own and might get cold at night without another piggy to snuggle up to!

I'd email the rescues now and see if they have any boars (preferably) they or you can bond him with. It's important he has company as soon as possible. Bear in mind anyone can call themselves a rescue.

Hi, what grade are you in?

 

[Roselina]

Good luck Oliver_chance - it’s great he’s going for a check - that will reassure you. Hopefully you’ll have some luck with finding him a friend

I’m so sorry but I try to keep my personal life away from socials but all I can say is that I can’t drive.

Hello. I dropped my skinny pig and don’t know what to do. He jumped right out of my hands and landed on the floor it was a three and a half foot fall. I checked him over and he was fine. This was four days ago and he seems fine. My mom won’t take him to the vet and I don’t know what to do.

Note: hello everyone he is back from the vet and is fine! Thanks for all your help!

The best thing to do is to take your piggy to the vet, cavies don't have much of a change in behavior when ill or injured, so it is good for a professional to check them out. Guinea pigs are small, fragile rodents and can be injured easily, so (even though not showing it) they can be injured quite easily. All pets should be taken to the vets as soon as possible if anything that could of injured them occurs.

Sending my hope to you and your piggy xx

He just got back (: he’s ok (:

That’s great news ! Just a little thing to mention ....if when you hold your piggle have him facing you as he won’t jump from you. If he is a wriggler the I would hold him when you’re moving in a closed hidey or cuddle sack. I have one guinea pig who is a wriggler(Bobby ) and one (Geoff) who is very calm !
