Guinea Pig Home

Thank you for being here for us!

Update: She started to eat hay (just a little bit, but I saw her). She is also eating pellets. What she is not having is water. We are taking turns to give her water with the syringe. Her poop looks small and thin. If I am not mistaken, could be dehidrated.

Chibi and Chimicuino look good so far. I am watching closely. I am washing my hands between handleling them and changing clothes. I hope they do not get sick.

Have somebody had piggies that one got sick and the other one did not?

I have a problem with the hour of the medication. He gave her the injection at 11:00 am. On Monday I start working, so I would like to give her the dosis at 5:00 pm when I get home. Can I do it? Or should I give it to her at 7:00 am before work. The only thing is that my brain doesn't work properly at that time...LoL!

Nugget once got an eye infection or something and it just passed on to my other pigs. Most sicknesses are contagious. I'm so sorry about Linny.

Yeap... We are a family of 10 here in florida (not living in the same house) we used to see each other everyday, so one got sick and the chain started. 10m people sick: one first, then the other one, then the other one, and so on.

We are a family of 8 (all of us animals included, they are family too!) in the same house. It's not a long chain but we take it to school, and EVERY one gets it. I'm not a morning person so I would do it at 5pm.

sorry I have no advice. Anyway, I am so sorry and my heart goes out to you.

It would be best to give it before work.

Update:

I see poop! YaY! Still not completly well, but she is eating completly on her own. She is cranky when we give her the AB and the poop soup...LoL!

Today is the last day for ABs. She is doing great. Now, when we'll be ok to put them back toguether?

I been checking on the other piggies and they seem fine. I thought in waiting untill the weekend just to make sure Penny is well. Also, to make sure she'll be strong enough to deal with Chibi if she starts bulling her (Penny) again. I know Chimicuino is going to popcorn all the way LoL!

When I reintroduce them? What should I expect? How should I do it?
