    Hey guys, Just an update: Butters is completely healthy and returned to me from the pet store. Bebe's eye infection cleared up with antibiotic eye drops over a week and a half, and the abcess under her chin went down within two days to a small scab and now is completely healed on its own. There...

    Would this be a surgery for her? Seems like that would be very hard on her, she is still so little. Am I able to flush it out with saline at home? I saw a small animal veterinarian. And is it just contagious in guinea pigs? My other one is separated being treated for two weeks.

    Hi Snugglybutt, Thanks! I love their names too lol . I will continue to try and offer veggies. The only thing with weighing is that she is still very young and growing constantly. She seems to be getting bigger and not smaller, but I will get her on the scale. And that is exactly how it is with...

    Thank you very much. If you read the next reply it is exactly that! 30 day warranty and they cover costs of vet bills when you surrender. They refunded me on a gift card for the cost of Butters and then I will repurchase her with that card when she is better. Thanks so much for your tips. Bebe...
