I took Herbie to the vets today to get his claws clipped and for a general check up. Well I asked the vet if he had mites and she said that he didn't and he seemed a perfectly healthy guinea pig with a lovely coat (how smug was I pmsl) anyway I asked her is she could tell me how old he was and she said that it is quite difficult to age guinea pigs.
I asked her if she could kind of have a look and she said he could be between 1-2 years old (he has definetly got to be 1 as I have had him since September of last year). Anyway I also asked her if she could check to see if Herbie still had all his bits and he has got everything.
The question i'm finally getting to (lol) is is Herbie too old to have his bits chopped off as I am worried that he won't come out of the anethsetic (sorry I don;t know how to spell it) or not. I would like to get him a girlfriend but will not get him one if he is too old to go through it as at the end of the day I really don't have a clue how old he is at all.
Oh and Herbie left the vet a nice little puddle of wee and I am in the dog house with him at the moment he is not happy I made the lady vet look at his bits lol.
