Junior Guinea Pig
For a week or so now, one of our Swiss teddies Minion has been doing noticeable breathing - this has become more abdominal and twitchy and audible in the last day or so, so I whipped him up to the vet this evening. She had a good look and listen, and said it was probably a UTI. She gave him anti-inflammatory and antibiotic injections (poor little love) and sent me off with instructions to return tomorrow to see if he has improved at all. If not, it'll be X rays to see what's going on in there.
Weirdly, he is not off his food or water - he is a big fat fluffy piggy so he has never really skipped about much, unlike his brother - and he hasn't been behaving oddly at all. He doesn't have crusty eyes or anything. I really just hope that these jabs can help him. My son will be devastated if anything happens to Minni.
