I brought my new guinea pig home yesterday around 6 p.m. and as far as I can tell, he hasn't touched his food or water. I'm a little concerned because it's been over 24 hours now. Every time I look in his cage he's hiding in his tunnel with his eyes wide open, really still and quiet.
He has a nice sized cage, a timothy hay tunnel, fresh bedding, food, water, fresh carrots and celery, and some chew toys. I've held him a few times since he's come home, around 30 minutes total and he's just been really still and doesn't try to get away or anything. His cage was in our living room and I thought maybe he wanted some quiet so I moved it into the bedroom.
At Petsmart, I saw him eat and drink a little. So I'm assuming he's not sick... What should I do? Should I be concerned?
