Just this afternoon, me and my parents brought our 1 year old guinea pig, Bopo, to the vet immediately when we noticed his odd behaviour and he seemed to have difficulty breathing. The vet gave him oxygen therapy but did not help at all, and she diagnosed him with Pneumonia. The vet also gave him 3 antibiotics for a week and also said his condition is severe.
I just want to know if pneumonia in guinea pigs will go away or will they pass eventually once they're diagnosed with it? I've been crying my eyes out ever since the vet explained to me his condition and had no idea what I could do to help him or just make him more comfortable. Any suggestions would be great.
Bopo is still eating his hay, not much of his pellets and water, he mostly just lay in one corner of his cage now.
