Welcome to my site, I love Guinea Pigs and I currently have two of the Little Cuties.
I want to have contact with other Guinea Pig owners and talk about Guinea Pig care and fun games.
Also Guinea Pig supplies is a way of finding great products for Guinea Pigs to have fun with their owners and their guinea pig playmates.

My Guinea Pig Sick

Posted by Sarah, Guinea Pig Supplies Editor | Posted in , , , , , , , ,

I know if you've been following my Posts regularly, you'll know my Guinea Pigs are called Chloe and Joey. Well Chloe got sick this week.

I bought a separate cage for her as she was being blocked by Joey, when she went to get her food.
In less than a week she was skin and bones and very weak.

I'd taken her to my Vet, who gave her antibiotics, as she had a secondary infection with guinea pig diarrhea and I drove miles away to get her some food that I could give her by syringe.

I nursed her for three days on this wonderful guinea pig product, and she did seem to be getting better. She was walking for a little way, before she stopped knackered.

When I put her into her hutch last night I thought she was going to get through this as she was doing so well on this Timothy hay based food.

This morning I got all her food prepared to feed her by syringe again.....................and she'd died overnight. The secondary infection had got too much.

I will be getting a new Guinea Pig soon, so watch out in my next post or two....

Have fun with your Guinea Pigs....Sarah
RIP: Chloe
