Omg, I am freaking out right now. I was trying to get my 6 month old guinea pig Castiel out of the cage, and he took a small nip at my finger that I wasn't expecting, so my hand just automatically flinched and released him.. So he fell out of my hand from about my ribs (I'm 5'6), onto his shoulder area, and he made a thud sound, and then flipped onto his stomach. He just kinda of sat there frozen for a bit as I bent over to pick him up, and he's got blood coming out of his mouth. I've never once dropped a guinea pig before, ever! I am seriously bawling my eyes out, I don't know what to do..
He's moving around (he's on my lap right now), I can't feel any noticeable damage, but he is shaking and there's the blood from his mouth that I cant figure out where it's coming from since he wont open his mouth for me, I can only move his lips out of the way - his incisors are fine although covered in blood. He wheeks as he moves around, but I can't see anything more.
I can't drive, my boyfriend does but he is out of town for work until the 28th. The emergency vet is in the next town over and is a half hour drive from my house, and I don't know if I can get a taxi there - I don't know if they would let me take Cas in a carry case all the way out there. I could stay up all night and hope to God that one of the two vet clinic's near me have an opening tomorrow, but they don't open until 8:00, and it's just about 1:30am right now. I want to call the emerg vet, but I don't know if it's something that I can viably get to
Somebody please help - I am completely at a loss for what to do!! Help!!
