One of my guinea pigs, Pepper, became ill very fast and passed away... I immediately took my other pig, Patrick, out and thoroughly cleaned the cage. Now he is all alone in a huge cage and won't go downstairs. He just sits by his food bowl. When I take him out he is very active though and explores his environment. I feel really bad for him. He is aging, and is very docile. I want to get him another friend but i'm not sure if this is a good idea at this point in his life.
