My poor guinea pig

I was putting GGP away and she jumped out of my hands, scratched my breast drawing blood and then did a full somersault landing on her paws. I have checked her and she is running as normal.

ouch, sounds like you came out worse off than she did. I think you are meant to keep an eye on them after any ordeal in case they go into shock. Don't quote me on that though as I have only ever once owned guinea pigs and that was a few years ago.

I was worried about shock too .

How is she now, does she seem any different to how she usually is?

don't worry, I think guinea pigs are tougher than people give them credit for.

Too scared to check on her but I will.

I dropped one of our guinea pigs from quite a height when we had only just got them. She ran away and scurried under a hedge then kept running in and out before I finally managed to catch her under a large flower pot. She was fine.

She is fine this morning {huge relief}.

Glad to hear she is fine
