Senior Guinea Pig
one of the pigs started chirping again just now, so i went over and it was maisie, and i sat next to the cage and she carried on... but she was breathing quickly to make that noise, it had a weird rhythm to it, but worryingly, she was making chattering noises with her teeth at the same time. and it almost looked like she was wheezing and making the noise because of that..
it was like she was in a trance though, so when i went to stroke her she ran off all wide eyed and scared.
since then though, she has eaten her brekkie, and wandered around, and is now munching hay with chesney. :{
should i be worried do you think? it's like she is fine but then chirps and goes really jumpy. do you think it could be her breathing and that noise is because of that?
she was popcorning round last night. she's eating and drinking fine. the only thing different this week is that she has managed to tangle her fur on her bum and underneath. she was quiet the other day and i checked her over and she had a big knot. i managed to untangle it and get that sorted but she now has another two. i have ordered some conditioner from gorgeous guineas, and a shaver to trim the area. could it be hurting her and making her upset and make this noise maybe? i really don't know. :{
one minute i'm really worried, the next she is fine, popcorning round and i think maybe i am over-reacting.
but she has never chirped before apart from three days ago and now today. i'm scared something is wrong and she knows.
