My guinea pig doesn’t move a lot

[Templelauren97]

Hi guys,
My two year old male guinea pig doesn’t move a lot but when he does he is very slow when getting up. He still eats and drinks just fine. I have also noticed his urine looking like milk. I need some ideas of what’s going on with him .



Note: He has a vet appointment on Tuesday

Good that you have a vet appointment. Piggies often have cloudy urine, but best get the vet to check if you are unsure to rule out kidney or bladder stones or infection.
Does your boy live alone? Piggies are very social animals and if he doesnt have a friend then he wont have much motivation to play and interact...

It’s great you have a vet appointment, and it is the only way to know for sure what is happening. Milky urine can be normal but can also be signs of bladder or kidney troubles.
Does your piggy a friend to live with? A solitary pig won’t move much as they don’t have anyone to play with

He lives with one other male.

I was about to get on your case about having one. But I'm glad you put this . Hope your other boy gets a diagnosis and gets better
