Junior Guinea Pig
Hi guys.
I have been to the vets but something quite awful happened earlier today yen had one what I think was a seizure. There was a weird noise like one of my pigs jumped, and I looked over and yen was in the corner twitching and unresponsive.
I pulled her out and had her on my lap on a blanket, she was twitching a lot and wasn’t really responsive for a few minutes. Her bum infection has been bad again, I had already set up an appointment with my exotic vet for Tuesday as I know it was coursing her discomfort.
After I rang the vet, she had a little sip of water out the bottle and a few little treats and seemed better again.
I rushed her to my local vets but it wasn’t any exotic vets just regular ones. She said if she’s had one seizure the next one would be worse and she probably wouldn’t get through it. She was twitching a little when the vet was holding her is she was like look she’s basically still having one BUT yen does do little twitches when she doesn’t want to be touched in a “get off me pls” kind of way. When she was put back in the carrier she was totally fine, I decided to take the antibiotics from the vets anyway (baytril) and said if she has another one we will PTS. I am so upset and shocked.
She’s in her regular cage again and she seems okay, she’s walking around fine.
Let me know if anyone has advice, I will keep my appointment with my exotic vet for Tuesday so we will see what happens before then. Obv if there is a decline again I will take her vets for pts. I just want to do the right thing for her.
