    Stones Guinea Pig Bladder Stone, Surgery?

    My apologies. He is about 2 and a 1/2. I believe the vet is well experienced, but I was already planning on calling her tomorrow to update her on Blaze, so I will ask her. Thank you for the help, and again sorry for posting two posts.

    Stones Guinea Pig Bladder Stone, Surgery?

    Hey, I posted a question about Blaze and his bladder stone. He is still peeing blood, and has had his meds ever since prescribed on the 23rd (March). He is still peeing blood, and is still eating fine and drinking normally. The vet suggested a surgery, but warned me as it will be risky, and he...

    Stones Guinea Pig Bladder Stone, Surgery?

    Re: Guinea pig with bladder stone, Which veggies should I feed him? I'm looking at KMS hayloft. Which pellets should I use? And can I use these pellets for everyday use? Or just for Blaze? Thanks

    Stones Guinea Pig Bladder Stone, Surgery?

    Re: Guinea pig with bladder stone, Which veggies should I feed him? So I should give him NO pellets? Just unlimited hay? He has oxbow adult cavy food, and it has .85% calcium which I'm guessing is too much.

    Stones Guinea Pig Bladder Stone, Surgery?

    Re: Guinea pig with bladder stone, Which veggies should I feed him? Thanks. I love my guinea pig very much, but my parents think surgery isn't necessary and too expensive. How can I convince them? I don't want him to be in pain :(

    Pet Stores Please tell me this is not happening

    Hello. I just watched the whole video and almost lost it. I own two sweet guinea pigs, one if which is from a petsmart. I know, shame on me. I got him because he was all alone and had some bad skin problems. But he has turned out to be such a sweetheart, and knows his name, Blaze. One thing is...

    Aggression Guinea Pigs showing Aggression

    Thank you both! You both have been very helpful. One more question- one if my pigs seems to shiver if the other gets too close. He had a bath yesterday, but I dried him off with the help of a heater. Is this "shivering" also normal?

    Ok, that's good to know! So if they bite each other, but there's no blood, it's ok? And what about hackles raised?

    Aggression Guinea Pigs showing Aggression

    Hey guys, I'm just worried about my guinea pigs. Yesterday, I built them a new cage, the size of 2x5. Before they were living in a 2x3 (I now realize that was much too small) and fought in that cage. In the new one, there is an enormous amount a teeth chattering, rumble strutting, and squealing...

    Coughing Guinea Pig drinks water Fast then Coughs a little

    Hello, my satin loves to drink water ultimately fast, and sometimes he'll stop and cough a little. It's usually only one or two, and then goes back to drinking. He's a healthy little guy, is it normal for him to drink fast? Thanks!

    Wheezing Please help, my guinea pig's breathing is strange!

    We had an expert look at him, and he said it wasn't in the lungs. He started to sneeze a little this morning and later on he had nose discharge. Should I take him to the vet? My mom thinks I'm overreacting, hoe can I convince her? Thanks guys

    Wheezing Please help, my guinea pig's breathing is strange!

    Ok, I will try and get him to a vet as soon as possible. But good news! In the night, he seems to be breathing better. He's not breathing as hard, and that weird whistle is almost gone. Thank you all for the quick answers!

    Wheezing Please help, my guinea pig's breathing is strange!

    Please help me, my guinea pig Blaze has started to breathe very loudly with a slight whistle to it. I can sometimes hear it, like if I pick him up, but if he's in the cage he is mostly silent. He is eating and drinking, and I have noticed no discharge from the nose and mouth. He is bedded on...
