Merrypigs Sanctuary
Adult Guinea Pig
Oh no, it's me and my studies again 
Are you fed up of me yet?
So, I've been researching but am needing a little more info on:
1 heatstroke
2 and losing weight but still eating well
which I thought someone may be able to help me with.
My RHA examiner has given me a hint regarding the heatstroke...
"see if you can do a little more research to find information on what can happen after a guinea pig looks like they have recovered from a collapsed state and how you may prevent this?"
Is it anything to do with fluid retention? I have a weird feeling I heard about that somewhere. I'm just a bit stumped as to what a pig may still be suffering from after recovering form heatstroke. I've already done about rehydration etc
Regarding losing weight and yet still eating well, I've gone through dental, fungal, oral thrush etc. What other condition could you treat for when a guinea pig is losing weight but eating well?
Thanks for any help and sorry for being a pain in the butt
