Adult Guinea Pig
I took the trio to visit the Vet this afternoon, BonBon for a nail trim, Humbug for a health check, her mystery lump to be examined, and to be checked for cysts as well as a nail trim. Truffles, just for a health check.
All were on their best behaviour, apart from Humbug, who true to form, fidgeted and squealed when her nails were clipped, and fidgeted when being checked, she threw herself in my hands when she had her weight check. BonBon was shaking with fear, and looked to me for support, putting her front feet in my hands, desperate to be picked up. She had the perfect coat
Truffles, took the whole thing in her stride, no wingeing, no squirming, she was very well behaved, only panicked once, and that was when the vet checked her ears for wax.
Piggy weights are:
BonBon 980g (3 and a half years)
Humbug 900g (3 and a half years)
Truffles 450g (9 weeks)
I've always found they seem to loose their baby fat around 3 years.
They always seem heavier in the evenings. All got a clean bill of health
