Guinea Pig is Sick

Question
My guinea pig is very sick. He doesn't want to eat and he is breathing heavily. He also has diareah and discharge from his nose what can I do or give him. I dont have money to take him to the vet so I was looking for alternatives. He doesnt want to move either.

Answer
As much as I would love to be able to give you something magical that would turn this around I'm afraid I honestly do not.  What you are describing is a very seriously ill pig. The heavy breathing is symptomatic of pneumonia. The diarrhea and nasal discharge means that his little guy is gravely ill.

I would give anything to have an alternative for you that would make a difference, but it would be irresponsible for me to tell you that there is a holistic treatment for him at this stage. As serious as you describe his condition I honestly doubt that even a vet could do anything for him at this point.

I am so very sorry I can't make this go away.
