So my little guinea pig Jerry was just eating some hay and started making this weird noise! It was like..you know when a little baby is sucking on its bottle 😂 wish I could upload a video because I got it all on camera

Hi!

You can upload your video on a public setting elsewhere and then copy/paste it into your forum post.
We are sponsored by voluntary member donations and moderating for free in our free time. The extra video upload bandwidth is currently beyond our means.

It is most likely - at a guess - that your piggy has/had a slightly blocked nose. Since guinea pig airways are very small and narrow, and they cannot breathe through their mouths, every little obstruction is very audible. A one-off that goes away on its own after a little while is not a problem. it is likely some hay dust that got into a nostril.

Please see a vet if the blockage continues for hours on end and as soon if your piggy is showing other signs of illness.
