I had two healthy guinea pigs, but last week they started to look I'll. I didn't notice it until it was too late, a few days ago my guinea pig Peanut died. I assumed it was from an illness and not from old age because he was only 2 years old. Today at 3:00 pm I came and saw my other guinea pig, Wink laying on his side. I was preparing for him to die but he's still moving his stomach, it looks like he's in a deep sleep. I'm not sure what to do and I'm pretty sure I'm going to lose him as he has not eaten or drank in a while, I can't take him to the vet as I have nobody to drive me there

Any advice?
 
You need to syringe feed mushed up pellets and water. Then a vet appointment does need booking it's possible whatever your last piggy died of was contagious. Is he waking up ifor you touch him? Keep him warm with a hot water bottle. @Flutterby @sport_billy
 
I would call the vet and ask to be seen as an emergency.
 
You need to get him to a vet. Please contact your emergency one
