Teenage Guinea Pig
Regrettably, one of my guinea pigs has fallen from her hutch for the second time in three days!
However, I had her examined by a veterinarian on Tuesday evening, after the first incident - While this veterinarian is not cavy-savvy, she performed a full examination, and determined that my guinea pig had been quite lucky, and had escaped from the incident relatively unscathed!
Regrettably, the same guinea pig has fallen from her hutch again this morning - Of course, I have checked her over, and, once again, I believe that my guinea pig has been quite lucky, and has escaped from this incident relatively unscathed also!
However, I believe that the reason as to why these incidences have occurred, is because this guinea pig is developing cataracts!
Of course, I will be taking further precautions to ensure that a similar incident does not happen again!
@Wiebke - I am aware that you have a few guinea pigs with cataracts?! Any advice?!
