One of our guinea pigs was dragged out of their run by a fox yesterday, but the fox dropped her when DH ran out after it. We found the GP and brought her in. Immediately afterwards, she was extremely scared and making distressed high pitched noises. She seems to have some bite marks and wounds around her eyes, plus is moving with some difficulty (but she can move). I don't want to examine her too much in case of hurting her and scaring her even more.
I have left her in our indoor hutch and put the other two pigs out in the run. I have left all the foodstuffs she likes in the hutch: celery, lettuce, dandeliions, GP pellets plus a water bottle. She is just sitting there looking very sorry for herself and not eating. I put her on my lap and put celery to her mouth, but she didn't eat it. She is not making the distressed noises now, even when I lifted her up.
We have had a succession of GPs for years, so I do know that when they go downhill, they go downhill fast and that not eating is a bad sign.
Am I doing the right thing? What else can I do? I'm not sure that a vet could do anything for her, or am I wrong?
