Hi. About a month ago, I got my first guinea pig, Michi. At first, she was very skittish and normally hid, which I’ve read is normal during the time a guinea pig is settling into a new environment, but after a week or so, she started coming out to see me whenever I entered the room. Since then, she’s started chetting, and last week, she was popcorning, and has let me pet her quite often. But she recently started hiding away again, and she hasn’t really seemed all that interested in her food or water. She’ll peak her head out whenever I sit next to her habitat, but beyond that, she hasn’t been moving around very much. I was already planning on taking her to the vet, just for a checkup, but I wanted to know if I should schedule one for her right away? I might be overreacting, but I want to make sure she’s ok.
