My guinea pig jumped out of my hand.

[Levente3900]

When I was putting back my guinea pigs into their cage one of them jumped out of my hands, I catched her midway but she jumped again and landed on the floor, on her legs, currently she seems normal and there are no obvious injuries. Fortunetly she landed pretty okay but I don't know. I will watch her closely for a couple of minutes and see what she will do. Do you guys have any tips?

Fell from about 2 feet
Landed on her feet
Landed on wood.

Welcome to the forum

With any luck she has landed well and not caused herself any major issues but it’s best to see a vet to have her checked in case there is something but also to rule out whether there may be soft tissue injury and/or pain which could need to be addressed.

I hope she is ok

She seems okay, she is currently walking around her cage and has also eaten, she squeeked when she fell but stopped pretty quickly. I can't really go to a vet right now. But I will check if anything is wrong with her throughout the day. If I find something, I will probably take her to the vet. Thanks for the response

Keep checking up on her for signs of pain and discomfort and make sure she is eating well. If you can check her teeth as well. Hopefully she's had a lucky escape

Checked her teeth, it seems fine to me, she is under shock but it looks like she is fine... for now and hopefully forever

If she is in actual shock then she needs to see a vet straight away

I mean it in that she is a bit more scared than usual. I didn't mean it in that way. She still lets me pet her and she also eats from my hand sorry if you misunderstood it.

Gave her a piece of apple, and she ate it right away, I think she is fine.

Last time I'm writing. She turned out to be completely fine. Took her out of the cage and she is now having fun in her blanket, thanks for the help!

I’m glad she seems ok.
Do keep an eye on her though because piggies can hide any pain and sometimes the effects of injuries take a few days to become apparent.
I hope all goes well
