Not sure whats going on

[talla's mommy]

I've noticed today that Talla has just been sitting in a corner of her cage with her head down. Usually when I put a finger through the cage to pet her she runs but she hasnt been doing that.

I got her out thinking maybe she just wanted some attention. She's never been that active or sociable with other pigs but after having the babies she's gotten a lot better with it. But this time she just sat here and wouldnt play with her toys. She hasnt talked to me much either.

While I had her out I noticed her do this weird thing twice. Her sides would like go inward and then it was like she was trying to throw up/hicup. I've never seen her do that before. She also hasnt been eating/drinking as much today as she has been.

After I put her back in the cage she scooted her house around (so cute, its gotta be just how she wants it or she gets upset) and went into it. Hasnt been out since.

I dont know if I should be worried or not. Last night she was out popcorning all over the place and seemed fine.

Is it possible that she's getting to many veggies? My mom fixes her a bowl every morning. Should we cut back?

I was also thinking maybe she's lonely? She hasnt had much interaction with other piggies the last month and half. Before having her babies she wouldnt have anything to do with the others (didnt even want me to fool with her). Our other little girl just had babies so she hasnt been able to come out and play. And she's got mites. We got Talla's cleared up and I dont want her to catch them again/play with Addison & Annabelle until their's are cleared up.

Maybe she's just having a bad day?

I'm just worried about her and dont know what to do.

I dont know. Any help/suggestions would be great!

A visit to the vet asap is needed. Is she still eating? pooping? What kind of veggies does she get? I doubt that she is getting to many veggies, if they are the right ones. She could have some teeth problems or even a heart issue. You might also check out Guinea Lynx :: A Medical and Care Guide for Your Guinea Pig. They may have some suggestions or ideas too.

Take her to the vet now!!!! I would be so scared, if I were you! That sounds bad!

She sounds like she is struggling to breath! That is how I feel when I have my asthma attack! I would take her to the vet!!!

How is Talla doing? I hope she is doing better.
