Hi,
We recently bought a couple of guinea pigs for the first time(noddy and snowy).At home we noticed noddy had some suspect patches on his nose , eye and a big bald patch on his back, we took to back to the pet shop and to their in house vet that diagnosed ringworm we have been given some ointment to apply for 21days. I would like to know if the snowy will get it as well. We have a young daughter and although she is not allowed to touch noddy she really loves them both already (same as me and her dad) we would hate to have to take them back. Needless to say we are really annoyed at the petshop for letting him get so bad and not giving him a proper health check before selling him. Also although they both have great appetites they do not drink much - should I be concerned about this? any advice would be very much appreciated.
thanks
