Unhappy Goodbye Snickers

A couple days ago my favorite guinea pig in the whole wide world dyed of a heart attack, it was so hard to see. He was laying down when he fell to his back shook for two minutes and then dyed.

You didn't say but I hope that he had lived a long, happy life. I'm so sorry for your loss.

He only lived 5 days at my house and he did not even eat or move a lot like my new guinea pig does.

It would be very unusual for a 2 month old guinea pig to die of a heart attack. I would be worried that it was something else instead. Perhaps he was sick when you got him (was he from a pet store?). Maybe you should have your other guinea pig looked at by a vet.

I recommend weighing your guinea pig every week. That way, if it doesn't feel good and doesn't eat as much, you can tell and take it to a vet.
