Gigi and Quinn
Junior Guinea Pig
Mavis hasn’t been herself the last two days and has lost around 50g in weight. My neighbours are doing very noisy building work so I moved the pigs to the room furthest from the noise but she’s still not quite normal so I’m syringe feeding and she’s had some pain relief. When I was feeding her I noticed her sides - where cysts can occur in front of her hind legs - are strangely flat, I’ve never seen anything like it, vet doesn’t know what it is. The last time she had bladder stones her sides went in a little but not like this. I don‘t believe it’s malnutrition as her weight is normal, a little down from reduced appetite the past couple days, but her spine isn’t jutting or anything like that. Besides the weird sides she is able to eat normally, is drinking and weeing/pooing as normal and they look good. I’m shocked and confused but I do think she is uncomfortable.
Anyone able to identify what‘s going on?
