my guinea pig izzy

Question
I have a guinea pig named isabel(izzy) and my sister and her friend were in my bedroom looking at her when they told me that they think izzy might be pregnant. She's breathing a lot heavier then she used to, her belly is getting larger, she's eating and drinking a little more then usual, and she's going to the bathroom about three times in 15 min. I'm not sure if i agree with them, and i just need some help. The male and female are no longer together. she's normally very fidgety when you get her out, but now she's all calm and stuff

Answer
Hi Katlynne

this is a classic case of guinea pig pregnancy,
Her breathing alot heavier is a bit of a worry but it should be ok
You will know if she is or not if you do these things

1. feel her stomach gently for babies/ You may only feel them in her later days of pregnancy.
2. check her nipples if they are swallen
3. her stomach will grow much bigger

I think that your guinea pig is pregnant so congratulations

Good Luck
