One of our guineas sadly had to be PTS this morning and now I'm Anxious about his brother and what I can do to help him
H was lying very still when I went to feed them this morning whilst his brother was wheeking away and circling him - I lifted him up gently and he didn't even try to scamper / token gesture of pretending he didn't want to be handled. Offered food and water but he didn't acknowledge it so off to vet.
Examination showed a physically well / healthy GP as so to speak but with a very slow and almost not there heartbeat so the decision was made to not prolong any suffering.
We don't have a clue what's happened to him, vet thinks perhaps shock of some kind - but now I'm anxious about his brother and how to manage what is likely stressful for him.
Any ideas?
