Teenage Guinea Pig
Hello. As some of you may know, my Eric lost his brother Jack earlier this week. We've had a few nights of him crying (and me) and tonight he is very skittish and doesn't want me, he just wants to hide and isn't eating much. He's eaten a bit each day since just not a huge amount. I just don't know how to help. I've tried cuddling him and trying to make him come out but he isn't interested. I know it will take him a while, but does anyone have some suggestions or should I just leave him be? I think I may need to get him a pal in a few weeks to keep him company and it seems I should get a baby boar that he can "daddy" rather than get one of a similar age. Any advice much appreciated.
Also, not sure if I can say this on here, but if you agree that a baby boar would be good company for Eric, I would be happy to take on a rescue baby. I thought it would be good to take on an older pal for him but apparently they may not get on? I am in Chingford in London and happy to take on a rescue baby if this is best for Eric and I can help anyone by adopting a baby.
