I left my guinea pigs at my boyfriends place. And yesterday he decided to put both of them at a table while tidying up. One of them suddenly ran, fell from the table, hit the chair and fell down. Horrible :'((( I can't believe it.
He looked alright yesterday night. However, as both of the guinea pigs are kept together I am not sure whether he is eating well. Today my biggest fears came true. I checked him early morning, his teeth looked ok. But in the evening both of his front teeth were moving ( I think they are broken at the gums.The cage looked as if one of them ate food (still that's my assumption, I am not 100% sure), and the cucumber was draged all over the place. I think the poor little one tried eating it, but did not manage. And his attempts ended in further breaking the teeth.
I separated both guinea pigs. To see if the one with the broken teeth is eating. When I tried feeding him rockets 15 min ago, he did eat. Still I cant stop worrying about him.
What should I do? Should I clean his mouth with Saline solution? Will he survive? Both broken teeth are still in place, but moving as if they could fall out any time.
PLease help!
