Strong Smelling Urine

[devinsantiago]

My guinea pig, Ozzy started acting weird after i put him in a play pen with my other guinea pig, Cappy. They both have separate cages indoors and i put both of them together once in a while. Ozzy always takes longer to drink water than cappy does which i didnt worry about. Ozzy started acting weird today when i took both of them out yesterday. I heard them squeaking when i checked on . i cappy was normal but ozzy wasnt. he was staying in the same spot not moving and i was calling his name and putting my fingers in his cage. he still didnt move. i got really worried so i picked him up and he went to the bathroom all over me. It was a little gritty and a cloudy white yellow color. it smelt really strong. i got scared so i gave him some food while he was on my lap. he was eating when i tried giving him water. he drank it once and then didnt want it. I put him back and gave him food but he kind of walked away from it. i gave him a toy to chew on and he is playing with it. I have had ozzy for almost 3 years in april. i dont know what this means and I'm really scared. i know this is all over the place but I'm panicking. if you know what this means and how to cure it, that would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Maybe something spooked him in the cage.

My two boys are fine in their cage but one of them still isn't comfortable being outside. He sometimes stands in one spot like he's frozen and doesn't react when I talk to him.

If his urine was gritty and smelly it's worth getting him checked by your vet to exclude a urine infection or bladder stone
