pooping

Hi all! TLDR: My guinea pigs haven't pooped in 3 hours. Should I panic already? Story: Cleaned their cage yesterday at 7pm, all good, plenty of poops oh so many poops. All good, behaviour normal, active outside cage, not avoiding us on the blanket more than usual, ate veg, hay, drank water...

Hello! This is my first post, I am a professional Guinea pig pet sitter, every year I have over a hundred piggies in my care. I am pretty knowledgeable about all things Guinea pig! However this noise has somewhat stumped me. I do suspect he could be in pain. This pig is currently in Boarding and...

my girl is straining to poop, often (just started today) and she lets out painful-sounding squeaks:( when she does this, the poop that comes out is clumped and somewhat mushy & stinky. i suspect the culprit is my mom feeding the two pigs carrots yesterday, since they didn't have veggies in their...

Hi there, For the past few days, my female pig Selma (2 yrs old) has been doing different shaped poops, from tear dropped and too mushy to harder but not uniform, with some being smaller and so on. I've been trying to take veggies out of her diet and have given her some Dualcare nuggets. I have...

Morning all, I've just gone to clear out the cage and give morning veg for our two Guinea pigs Cinnamon and Willow (both 2.5 years old) and found several strange poops in the cage. I've not seen anything like it before: (mixed in with some normal looking ones so i don't think its both of them)...

Hi! My Piggie isn't pooping. She was pooping yesterday really well but today she seems to have stopped. She's not bloated, she's eating lots, and she's acting like herself. I do have cisapride for her but I know it's a hard medicine, should i give it to her (I have the dose and everything from...

I have a guinea pig namenamed Rodney that is a year and a half, and I noticed that his stomach is pretty swollen. He is walking strangely, a bit spread out, and is acting pretty timid, but he is eating normal and as far as I can tell, going to the bathroom normal as well. I just brought home a...

Hello, I have been looking after my guinea pig Hector after a spay she got done 2 weeks ago to remove her large ovarian cysts and swollen uterus which was seeping fluid out of her. She has been slowly recovering for the past two weeks as it was a much larger op than the vet anticipated and I...
