Bumble is back off to the vets as I noticed when I had him on his back to check his feet that he seems to be swollen on his lower right hand side - my vet did mention that he had a small lump that seemed to move about when she operated on him back in September so it was a fatty one- but his CT scan also showed a small cyst in the liver - hence me worrying that this lump might be that liver cyst that has grown - I have googled where is the liver in a guinea pig and just seem to get pictures of guinea pig reproductive organs in sows and livers that have been taken out - but no diagram of a guinea pig pointing to the liver - so if a piggy was standing up on its hind legs begging for food facing you - would the liver be on the left hand side above the the top of the hip?
