Junior Guinea Pig
hi all,
I've noticed one of my girls' bum and inside of hind legs are stained by wee and smell of wee... i also checked her lady parts and there was a bit of a milky, slimey residue which in some places was dried of and looked a bit like dried flakey yogurt bits perhaps ? Not as white as yogurt but milky.. they were just two or three tiny flakes at the entrance to her vagina. I saw it on Thursday when I was cleaning the cage, so I gave her bum bath and today it was the same.
She's never been messy so I'm guessing it's UTI, so will be taking her to the vet on Monday but just wanted to check your thoughts for my peace of mind.
Other than being a stinker she's fine, eating like a lion, and moving about etc.
They have fleece bedding so I can't blame that, since it's very absorbent and no other pigs have their bits dirty at all...
Thank you
