I took him to an emergency animal clinic Sunday as he was not eating and barely moving. We got some anti-biotics for him, it's baytril chewable, 25ml every 12 hours. We were told to mix a little orange juice to make it taste better. He started to eat a lot more after a day.
BUT 3 days later I have found him laying on his side, twitching a little. Breathing is less than usual. I called a day time vet, they suggested calling the clinic I originally took him to because they couldn't say over the phone if it was worth bringing him in. That other clinic was closed until tonight( it's morning here in the U.S. )
At this point is there nothing I can do? I hope if he is dying that it will happen soon so he won't suffer anymore. I'm sitting next to him right now petting him and talking to him a little.
This sucks a lot. First guinea pig out of 8 that has had this upper respiratory infection. We only got him from Petsmart a few weeks ago :/
