QuestionMy guinea pig has been going down hill for a few days now. He hasn't eaten anything and has lost a lot of weight. He onyl drinks when i put a syringe in his mouth and make him drink. His fur ued t be really shiny and smooth and not it has turned dull. He just lays around all day. He hasn't peed or pooped in a while too. I haven't heard him squeak or make any noise in a while eiter. Can you tell me what is wrong with him?
AnswerHi Sarah
What you describe could indicate a lot of different things as piggies stop eating when they feel sick.
You need to get him to a vet straight away so treatment and a full examination can be given.
He could have an infection, a teeth problem or any number of things.
Good luck
Andy
