Guinea pigs!!

[Free Birb]

Did she have any health problems? Was she highly stressed out? (Storm, loud kids or music, new dog or cat, etc.) Did she accidentally get dropped?

She was perfectly fine the one night I got her out and she acted super strange the next morning I went to pick her up and she was all stiff

Are you saying you would eat these adorable little munchkins?

Lots of people do. I'd be open to trying it if the opportunity came up, but I haven't yet. Just figured I'd ask before saying much here

By getting her out, do you mean letting her free range in your house? Is there a possibility that she ate something she wasn't supposed to?

I just had her in my lap she was acting super cuddly witch was unusual because she wasn't very socialized yet

We think she had a heart attack but we don't know what would have caused it

Now that I think about it one time I got clover to wear a little hat my sister crocheted

Ok. So something was wrong the night before. That's similar to Pebbles before she died. You're saying heart attack, was she highly stressed out within her last week of life? If you're thinking a heart attack because you picked her up, unless you picked her up wrong like suddenly, I doubt that would have been the cause. My Thistle was very feral when I got her, and I pick her up everyday with her kicking, screaming, and more and she's been fine. (She's actually much calmer now.) Thistle was about four months old when we got her.

She was probably scared because we had not had them very long and the change of cages might have made them nervous

So sorry about your loss. My family lost a Guinea Pig, and she wasn't even a year old yet. When we got her, she had some health issues that we think was the leading cause of her death. Don't worry, no judgement here.
