Junior Guinea Pig
Around a little over 3 months ago our guinea pig ran away from our backyard. We found him a few days later three to four hours down our street in someone's backyard. He's been so far and I've been monitoring his weight but just today he bit me on my thumb and I bled a little.
I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow for something unrelated so should I bring this up? It's been this long but technically if a guinea pig did have rabies he would already have died? I'm pretty scared trying to think of what to do next!
Can guinea pigs get rabies? I looked online and all I could find was a study from 2003 but I'm not the norm since my guinea pig has been outside unsupervised during the time we lost him. It says it's uncommon in small animals and rodents but I'm still worried.
