my guinea is sneezing

Question
We have two guinea pigs about 7 months old.  They play and eat and seem happy.  One of them started sneezing recently.  Any advise?

Answer
Hello Lizzy,

Have there been recent changes to his bedding? If so he may be having a reaction to it. Is the sneezing frequent? Is there nasal or eye discharge or does his breathing sound funny? If so, he may have a URI (Upper Respiratory Infection) and he needs to see a vet right away for antibiotics. URIs are easily treated if caught early but are deadly if left untreated. Good luck. I hope he's all better soon.
