Hey, this is my first post so feedback is welcome 
I have 2 Piggies, Nessie and Nissa. Nessie was only a young when I got her, nevertheless she was pregnant and had three healthy babies. They were dubbed Michelangelo, Leonardo and Nissa.
In late January a carpet snake broke into Mikey and Leo's cage and poor Mikey was eaten and Leo died of shock. I was in tears for three days and I was wondering if the girls (Nessie and Nissa) in the cage next door, knew what happened.
About 4 days ago whilst giving the girl's cage a extensive clean, the ball bearing on their water bottle fell out so we gave them the boys old one (mind we scrubbed it first!). Both Nessie and Nissa won't drink from the bottle and when it is put near them they jump away and cuddle into my arms. I was desperately trying to make them drink and Nissa will drink out of a eye dropper, but Nessie seems more affected and will only drink a few drops from my finger! About 10 minutes ago whilst trying to make them drink they both were distressed by the bottle and just sat there practically whimpering, like they had just found out what happened to the boys. My mum and I were wondering if this is some sort of Guinea-pig ESP or Depression??
Sorry for the long post, but I am worried for my babies!!
