The Worst Case of Bumble Foot Ringworm and thenTragedy Strikes at the Guinea Pig Rescue

[@TheWheekEnd]

❤❤❤ I'm so happy he got the help he deserved 😭 precious little fella 💙 So sad he didn't make it through his surgery 😢 💔 but you guys showed him love and I know he felt that

[@cathyfulton9181]

I'm crushed to learn at the end that he died. how very sad. I hope that this wasn't human error because when it comes to all animals both wild and domestic we need to do better for them. They deserve nothing but the best treatment and respect by humans. I am a dog lover and the amount of dogs that are in distress shocks me, I have now come to know about these little guys and I feel the same way. We need to treat every one of these guys with care and love and most importantly routine medical

[@sammaloo]

He DID get his happy ending - you beautiful souls gave him so much love. Thank you so much for giving him a new life. I'm crying, so I'm gonna go cuddle my own little boy, Peanut.

[@Picachki]

I had a Guinea pig with the same problem. We bought him from Petco. He was healthy at first then got bumble foot at an old age. They had to do surgery. Looking back on it I question if that was the right course of treatment at the time. It was in the 2000s when many things weren’t known about these pets. I took care of him for 4 days after surgery before he succumbed to it. I was a young girl and it devastated me. My responsibly bred Guinea pigs never had problem with this condition. Rest in peace to all the piggies bred into this life by terrible corporations. ♥️ They deserve better. Thank you for caring and helping this buddy. Poor bub! May he rest on in greener pastures.

I just recently lost my baby boy piggy from being bought sick. He fought hard but in the end didn't make it out. Spent 4 nights in the vets on a drip in oxygen and constant supervision, and tones of medicine . It makes my blood boil whenever i pet stores fulled with animals because 99.9% of the time they're neglected and sick. Ive never ever had a good experience with pet-stores and small animals. Most were sick and passed away. I have another piggy whole fortunately made it from the same store. Sick and abused by the store and her previous owners. Im thankful for at least her to still be here

But that comment specifically I wanted to focus on saying take of the Guinea pigs there, and give the guinea pigs a amazing home so that the piggies feel comfortable and so when the baby’s are born (and done properly) they have a nice and health home. So they can get adopted into a nice, loving home. Not trying bred any animal if they don’t know what there doing. Sorry.

[@meowsmakemusic718]

In all honesty though what the boy did was great, his family deserves no pity for letting it get so bad before seeking help

[@myshmallow]

@@meowsmakemusic718 Chances are, they did try to get help. She mentions in the video that they couldn't afford the treatment. Guinea Pigs are often classified as "exotic" in a lot of big name vet hospitals like VCA. I had Rats for example and while it was like 150 for a normal check up for a cat, we were paying 300 to 400 dollars just for a health check and screening for our Rats. And we got them from a big name pet store, sick with some raspatory issues. Add in the cost of antibiotics, and you can easily pay 600 just for routine treatments because small animals, especially rodents, aren't a priority to a lot of vet places. They probably shopped around trying to find a vet they could afford and then the little boy found these folks and surrendered him. They all did the right thing. If you can't afford to take care of a pet, you shouldn't have the pet. Especially one super sick like Pedro was right from the store. Special needs animals are not for the feint of heart, that's for sure.

[@prettyevil6662000]

@@myshmallow Not only are they classified as exotic and thus expensive, but in many areas you can't find a vet who will see rodents. I had to call every vet in a 30 mile radius before I finally found one that would see my pet rats. And then there's a whole treatment problem where vets might not know how to mix or administer medication for an animal that small. These are sadly problems you wouldn't even know to check into until there's already a need for a vet. Guinea pigs, hamsters and rats seem like good first time pets for kids because they're so cheap to get. Most people wouldn't imagine that getting them treatment would be so hard or so expensive.

I had one of my boys neutered, never ever again, 6 months of trying to save his life after he developed an abscess in his scrotum and in the end enough was enough and I had to have the poor darling PTS. Heart breaking. RIP Pedro you little sweetheart ❤

[@Nocturnalux]

I had my cats spayed but never my piggies. I only had males so I kept them in different cages (to keep them from fighting), there were no females around so I didn't see the point...piggies are so small that the idea of doing any kind of surgery that isn't absolutely necessary just didn't seem a risk worth taking. At the time, I didn't have access to a vet that specialized in small pets either so I greatly feared the outcome. If I had piggies now, it might be different.

[@Villanelle3]

@@Nocturnalux larger animals are completely different, I've had my dogs and cats neutered without issues. Boars should live together fine without being neutered as long as no sows are around. I've had lost of pairs of boars. Currently have 5 sows though so no boys allowed!

[@Nocturnalux]

@@Villanelle3 That was my reasoning as well, that there was no point in neutering male piggies as I had no females. I just looked at their tiny, tiny bodies and worried sick that the surgery would just be too much for them. Piggies are already so fragile as it is- which is one of the reason why I no longer have them pets even though I will always love them to death- that any kind of medical intervention that isn't life-saving didn't seem viable. I knew a poor chinchilla who suffered a terrible paw injury that required surgery and he went into shock and didn't make it. In this case it was absolutely required but it goes to show how smaller animals are at a much greater risk when it comes to surgeries.

[@alistaircroll1036]

@@Nocturnalux You are spot on .I would never neuter a pig.Small animals struggle with anaesthesia. It's a simple truth. I feel sorry for the vets ,they often try their best.

[@critterc0rner]

I don’t agree with “adopt don’t shop” but I agree with adopt OR shop responsibly. Adoption isn’t for everyone as most of the time adopted/rescue pets are more higher maintenance than healthy ones, some people are just not ready to take on the extra care and money those animals need and probably couldn’t handle the possibility of them dying any moment and living a much shorter life. If you want to buy a new pet, do a lot of research on various stores and breeders. Never ever buy from big chain pet stores as they source all their livestock from mass breeders/mills hence why many pets they sell no matter the species are always sick and die early, and especially don’t “rescue” them, you are still supporting the store’s abuse by giving them your money and letting them know there is a demand and more animals will take their place and suffer. Support smaller, ethical breeders that prioritise welfare over profit.
