1 month ago, this guinea pig drooled and was treated. He had a weight of 730 g and recovered from drooling.
However, he had rapid breathing rate around 2 weeks ago. He weighed 640 g 3 days ago as an in-patient. Today, Feb 8, 2016, he weighed 530 g despite treatment and hand-feeding. He did pass stools. Less eye discharge and no more runny nose.
The guinea pig takes a long time to recover from upper respiratory tract infection and some die as the owner is not able to give medication and food several times a day.
