GusandPeanut
Junior Guinea Pig
Hi all,
My piggy Gus, who is around 19 months old, hasn't eaten this evening and has a rumbling belly that's noticeable if you get up close or rub him. He has nibbled a good mouthful of food but seems a little like he's low on appetite - he's sniffing it all, having a bite, but not eating a proper bowlful. He seems to be eating a little more hay.
Otherwise fine - breathing is fine, he is being grumpy/laying about but that's him generally, plenty of energy if he needs to get up and run.
He was fine this morning and seemed to be ok earlier when I picked his bro up to go to the vets (unrelated issues). Only seems to have been like that since then - he was a little sulky when we got him out pre-feeding and put him on our bed, and since then has just been a bit quiet and not eating.
Any advice adored. Thanks chaps.
