My family and I are going nuts! Eevee has been yelling the whole day. Its the same kind of loud wheeking I usually hear when she is really hungry. I think the neighbours can hear it too. I gave her her fav veggies, her fav gerty, I even let her out for an extra long run but she won't stop yelling. Any idea what's wrong with her?
She has recently recovered from diarrhea and is living on her own since 1 week ago because she and my other girl piggy won't get along. I tried to introduce them again but they seem aggresive toward each other although no injuries. I'm getting a c& c cage made hopefully this weekend and will try to intro them again.
In the meantime what's with all the noise? She won't stop !
Yep, above questions v sensible - also, if she yelling when she pees? Piggies squeak when they have cystitis I think. Actually we could all suggest hundreds of things and not be any help. I'd take her to the vet if she was my piggy.
What happens if you put the two pigs within sight of each other? Maybe she's yelling for her old buddy. My pigs have fought before (not really badly) and when I took Boogie out to check her over and calm her down, Fluffkin stood at the door and wheeked for her when she'd been away for about 45 mins. :o
She cant see her ex buddy but they are only 2 feet away from each other and I'm sure she can smell and hear her. Shes doesnt seem to be in pain but is very fidgetty when I feel her all around(she usually is like that anyway). She stops wheeking when I stroke her in her cage but if I pick her up to cuddle she makes a lot of noises as she normally does, then it escalates into that high pitched wheeking after a bit. At her run time earlier she was running all over and wheeking real loud.
Basically shes not much different from usual just that she seems more restless and also wheeking very louding the whole day only stopping when she eats and sleeps.
Shes only 3 months old so unlikely to have any bladder stones at this age i guess? Anyway shes not yelling when peeing or pooping, just generally all the time today. Well she wheeked even louder when i got the other piggy out where she could see her. I did put them together for a while today but they mounted each other and chased a great deal so I seperated them again. I'm not sure if shes being lonely but they sure don't get along well.
I guess its hard to speculate but a vet visit won't do any good at this point coz where I live (south east asia) the vets are just no good when it comes to small animals, unless it was something obvious like diarrhea or external injuries maybe they could give something for it. Since some of you have been keeping piggies for some time I was wondering if you guys ever encountered a situation where your guinea pig has been shouting the whole day for no apparent reason.

If she can smell her ex buddy, maybe it's what piggytoefluff said. Maybe she wants her playmate back.
If it continues I'd speak to the vet.
Good luck. O0
I have the same problem at the mo with Bully he is 6 months and I have just got 2 5wk old babies. When he hears them squeaking he just shrieks at the top of his voice which melts into a dreadful moaning noise! I was climbing the walls myself last night, but decided to pick him up, cuddle him, brush him etc everytime he did it to distract him. I think its just loneliness and they fact they can see and hear other piggies but can't get to them - quite sad really!
I'd have a look at her skin and give her a Gorgeous Guineas Melt to eliminate mites. Could just be that she's happy ? Are you sure of the sexes? Does sound like she's calling to the other one :
Yes both of them are sows. Hmm its hard to see her skin condition bcoz of her color(grey and black) so the skin is also grey in color. I guess I should apply melt on her since I still have some left over from her last fungal treatment, maybe whatever was irritating her skin back then is not totally gone yet. Well she doesnt look sad at any rate but I wonder why would she be so happy, maybe because she just recovered from being ill ? Silly girl... i hope she doesnt keep yelling tonight when we have all gone to bed lol... i might have to put her in our spare room and shut the door.
Oh gosh she didnt stop wheeking. This morning once my family was up she was already wheeking loudly. I put some melt on her yesterday. I cant wait till my friend brings me the cubes tomorrow so I can do up her new cage and pop the pigs side by side. Shes now sitting on my shoulder and screaming into my ear. I think I'm going to put her and her pig friend into the garden, usually they dont squabble when they are there >
Cornelia lets out these horrible shrieks, too. I think it's because they want company. Cornelia also knows that if she squeaks long enough she'll get veggies ;D
Also, my two piggies weren't in a big enough home together and were fighting, but when they were separated, Cornelia would shriek and sounded so sad It turned out that they wanted to be together, but in a bigger home! If you get a bigger place for the two and put them together, things might turn out to be okay like they did for me
i think you are right! She stoped shrieking once I put them together in the playpen although they did squabble a bit. Thier new cage was just done up today, they are still rumbling at each other and chasing a bit. Hope they settle down soon.
