Since this morning, Harvey keeps making a bizarre noise, it sounds like that of a respiratory infection or so.
Like when you have a cold it's like a drrr noise but it's not his breathing.
It's just like a bizarre noise.
Please help, don't wanna lose another piggy
 
Does he do it all the time? Or when you make a noise etc? Could just be him purring/rumbling? When exactly does he do it? Doesnt mean it isnt a resp infection.

Is he making this noise constantly? When you hold him and listen to him breathing does he sound chesty?
 
Yes but it's not his breathing... I'll fetch him quick.
Its like a very quite cheery cough.
Although I'm not positive it's his breathing.
 
I'm worried sick!
I'm scared because I only list my Darwin Bo 3 months ago.
He also seems rather jumpy.
But still as cuddly as ever.
 
The best thing to do is get him checked out by the vet. Can you call and make an appointment tomorrow? That will ensure if he is unwell he will get the treatment he needs.
