Hey, everyone, So, Basti started to eat less and less a few weeks ago, started losing weight and we went to investigate only to find out she was having dental problems. X-Ray detected some anomaly in her jaw and teeth, she went to surgery and the doctor said that "things were pretty messy in...

Hi everyone, i live in Italy and i ask for your help for my guinea pig. In May she had a problem of bloating but we were able to fix that. After that the vet told us to give her less veggies and more hay. At first she had a lot of soft stools mixed with constipation but we slowly fixed that...

My male guinea pig teeth are uneven, he is a year and a half old ish and I'm not sure what to do? Is this bad, he still eats at his normal pace and normal amount and is not showing any discomfort or anything

One of my guinea pigs recently had back to back ear infections, and due to those has developed some dental issues. His front teeth were trimmed but his back teeth still need to be taken care of. He is currently too underweight to under go that process. He is on critical care feed per vet...

I recently noticed one of my boars had crooked top incisors, so I took him to a vet (that supposedly works with small animals) to have his teeth trimmed. Unfortunately, I was not able to go with to this vet appointment, so my mom had to take him. They told us he suffered from malocclusion (what...

On Thursday, May 7, I opened a fresh new bag of hay (I use Oxbow's Timothy Hay/Orchard Grass Blend). Neither of my guinea pigs seemed that interested and preferred instead to eat what was left of their old bag; hay that was arguably less fresh and getting stale. But even then, they did not eat...

Hi, my 5 1/2 year old intact boar is having some weird tooth problems. Vet says that the molars look okay and the brown at the base of his bottom incisor is fur. Ozzy confirmed this himself as he has cleaned off his teeth and has lovely pink gums. The real problem is that his bottom left...

A bit of an odd one - yesterday we got a 3mth old gp from a rescue. Today I noticed she drank out of the side of her mouth. It turns out she has extremely long top teeth which are curling back into her mouth but there was no sign of any bottom teeth. I'm assuming she has never had any because if...

My guinea pig Mickey is sick for a week. He is a 4 years 10 months old American breed boy. He was not eating (anorexia) for two days. Then we visited vet. She checked his heart beat and lungs, they are functioning OK. But he has gum redness/soreness and felt pain on putting some pressure on...

Hello! I have a very fiesty 4 year old boar, he won't stop biting the divider in his cage. He recently chipped a tooth pretty bad on the wire, and I'm scared that with him biting with little tooth, that he will damage his gums? Anybody have any idea how I can stop him from biting?

I was taking My piggie Optimus to the vet and gave the two boys some carrot before we left but I found Witwicky couldn't eat it and it would just fall from his mouth.Later after the vet looked at Optimus's foot she examined Witwicky teeth and found they had completely gone and there was a...
