my guinea hasn’t eaten in almost week. He\she cannot stand for long and only takes one step and sits back down. He/she can barley drink water.

Welcome to BYC! Is a vet an option?

Thank you. No not really, I just graduated from high school and do not have a job or a job. I am hoping there’re may be some suggestions on here. I can dip it’s head in water/electrolytes and it will drink a little I assume that’s why it is still alive. I have it in a cage in the utility room so the other three won’t kill it. I put it in vacant pen yesterday and all it would do is sit. It never even tried to move away from me as I would rub it’s back. Thanks for your reply.
