I had one of my Guinea Pigs Toffee on my lap today and all of a sudden he through himself on his side...
He kept doing it, he'd run and popcorn on my lap for a while then just jump up in the air and throw himself down
Is he just excited or is it something to worry about? :-\
 
Hi Sophie,

He probably just lost his balance? Not sure, mine haven't done that. How is his walking? If he doesn't do it when just walking about then I wouldn't worry, he's probably just getting ahead of himself and getting excited!

I wouldn't worry unless it persists. My piggy acts odd too but usually it only last a day or so.
Hope you figure it out. O0
 
Yeah I think sometimes they just land kind of wrong when they've been popcorning! Bless 0:) A vet told me that can get overexcited and get a bit dizzy, so maybe he just lost balance. Check him out when he's just walking or running around - if he goes round in circles (kind of on the spot) then take him straight to the Vet.
 
Thanks everyone
He walks fine, it's hard trying to describe how he does it...
He purposly(sp?) throws himself down, i'll get him out again today and try and get a vid if he does it again... :-\
