Bacon and Eggs have been squabbling quite a bit recently, but today I went to the cage to find Bacon's eye swollen and cut. I believe that Eggs scratched it in one of their tiffs sometime today. I showed my mother, and we put antibiotic cream(that I read was safe for guinea pigs on the Guinea Lynx website)on the cut at the top of the eye. But on his eye there is the mark of claws.
We are going to take him to the vet tomorrow, as they are closed now.
I have some questions, however.
Is what I did okay for Bacon until tomorrow? Is there something more I need to do?
I didn't want Eggs to bother Bacon or his eye tonight, so I put a coroplast barrier in, because I don't have any extra grids. Was this wrong?
Is there anything, anything at all, that I should know concerning my piggy?
Thank you in advance, and I will post a picture of Bacon's eye shortly.
