Hey All,
I could really use some advice about my guinea pig Squeekie. First, he's five years old and such a good little piggie!! I hate thinking he's not feeling well!! I noticed some liquid coming out of his eye. I took a picture - please see it and let me know what you think. Is this normal? I doubt because I've never noticed it before. It has improved since I took the photo.
Also worth noting that I recently noticed my piggies drinking more water than usual and thus peeing more. But I was hoping that was due to warmer summer weather. It is cool in my apartment now ...
Anyhow, Squeekie is eating and is active. I intend on taking him to the vet as soon as I can get an appointment. I was wondering, is this an emergency?
I suspect my piggie is diabetic ... I changed his diet and hoped that would help but I guess it hasn't.
I would really appreciate any and all feedback!! Love this forum, so helpful!!
