@@ladyyuna2000 just be prepared because they are not easy pets to care for. They eat and poop like little hippos. They also need lots of space and exercise. I love them but I don't think I'll ever own another unless I had to rescue it. They are lots of work. My lizards are much easier.
Definitely. Sometimes animals know they are being helped. These are so, so painful. She may have been hurting too much to try and bite. Regardless she was a trooper!!!
@@Jamie_McElroy we had 2. They never would let us touch them. I made my son wait until he was older. We were very calm and worked on them getting used to us. Finally gave up and sold them. They were biters too.
my gorgeous guinea girl shankly had 3 abscesses (at different times) and i took her to the vets and she had them removed, i was laughed at by many people because their response all the time was "it's just a guinea pig", she wasn't just a guinea pig but my little fur baby and i would do anything for my fur babies. can you give this gorgeous cavy a big hug from me xxx
Hello Scousergirl! Try telling people u took a hen to the vet, long ago I had 4 hens, all spoiled and not afraid of me. I did not know what was going on while n the house, on the phone paying my mortgage payment when a hen runs past me, after getting off the phone, I went outside, there stood a little dog that apparently squeezed threw a gap where the gate latched to the post, after chasing it back out, then scoulding my dog for not doing her job, I went looking/calling for the other 3 hens, one was up n the bushes, I helped back out, the other two from hearing me calling for them, one came running, the other who wound up on the other side of the stockade fence flew back up on top, I helped her back down, then I went back n house to look the one n there, I couldn’t find her going n, but on the way back out, she came out from behind trash can walking right beside me, telling me all about it as we walked outside together. Anyway, the little dog had taken a chunk from one of the hens, I took her to the vet, which of course tickled everyone there, chickens r not normally considered to be a pet. She healed, and lived to old age. It’s a shame that some people can’t take off their blinders and realize how awesome it is that other animals can be precious pets as well! Have a wonderful day
Don't you hate the 'just' word inferring your beloved fur baby is nothing! These people are soulless and probably never had the unconditional love of an animal. I look on them with pity as well as distain! No animal should be left to suffer ❤
When I was 16 my sisters and I shared chinese dwarf hamsters. So super tiny and an unfortunately short lifespan (approx 2-5 years). One day I noticed my little bean Pepe’ kept falling off the roof of his house (he liked to sit there in the evenings). Suddenly he was becoming very clumsy and within days was startled whenever he was picked up and was running into things. I suspected he was having trouble seeing. We took him to the vet and sure enough he confirmed he was blind. The vet suspected cancer and we confirmed it was. I had two options…euthanize or try to treat with medications/special care. I loved him very much and of course didn’t want to see him suffer, but at the time I was 16 and I had all the hope that if there was treatment there was a chance. Nobody in my family thought it was strange but when I would tell my friends about it they would laugh and make out like it was the strangest thing in the world. Hearing things like “it’s a freakin hamster, it’s like an inch long”, and “hamsters are like medical experiment tools, why bother?”. It was shocking to me that just because my pet was “an inch long” that meant he didn’t feel pain or that I didn’t love him. As if his size had anything to do with the fact that we had mind or relationship as anyone would with a pet. Granted some animals of course can’t necessarily bond all the way and feel any type of connection to their human counterpart, but Pepe’ was very special to me. He was with me constantly. If I had to get up and couldn’t hold him in my hands, he rode in my shirt pocket. When I laid down, he laid on my chest and under my hair. Thankfully my mom didn’t gave the same mindset as my friends asked me what I wanted to do. I asked her if we could afford it and she told me she would do whatever I wanted, so we started treatment. She helped me give him daily shots and doses medicine every single day. While I was at school she would take care of him all day long, give him his shots and never left him alone. Some nights she actually stated up watching him for me as sometimes I was afraid to go to sleep because I thought he might die and I wouldnt be there. Eventually after two weeks we could see that there was no improvement and that he was actually getting worse and so I finally made the decision to give him rest as I didn’t want him to suffer any longer. But the point I guess I was trying to make is that just because he was super tiny and “just a hamster” didn’t mean that I didn’t love him with all his f my heart. We took him home and buried him in our backyard. As an adult, I’m a bunny momma as (I’ve been obsessed with bunnies all my life) and I I love my bun buns just as much if not more. Snickers is my spirit animal lol, we are extremely bonded. You don’t always get that with every pet, but I’ve been fortunate to have that with mine. If you have a connection to your animal then none of that matters. Bunny owners are more common now, but I’ve been connected to bunnies since I was a baby and throughout my life I’ve heard the exact same things. “Why a rabbit?, it’s not like you can walk it, or do anything with it?” Yes! You absolutely can! I am a huge advocate for bunny treatment and it shocks me that up until recently people had no idea how much like a dog or a cat they could be! My brother no different than a dog… Full access to the house, ability to go wherever and whenever they please, litter box trained, goes for walks on a leash, plays outside, sleeps with us, All of it! Their size, How come and they are, or how orthodox they might seem matters not. People gravitate towards the animal that they feel the connection with. And sometimes it’s a surprising one that you may not expect! It’s your specific, unique relationship with them, and no one else can speak to that, or experience that except for you.
I hate people who say “it’s just a guinea pig”. We probably spent hundreds in vet bills on my girls over the years, especially with my first’s tendency towards accidents. They are our babies just like a cat or a dog. If you would spend it for a cat/dog, you should spend it for a Guinea. They are just as precious.
As someone who's experienced an absess first hand, the moment you first slice probably hurt like hell, but the draining right after is just ... heavenly. Like that moment the pain goes away after you've stumped your pinkie toe.
Yes it is really bizarre actually as we numb the lancing site and yet with people they don't. You are right, immediately after it is released there is relief.
Watching this and as she started to ‘ complain to the management ‘ my male dog who is very empathetic , came shooting over to check everything was ok . He had been Asleep and had a serious case of bed head but he was determined to check whoever was in distress was ok .
Absolutely and with skin stretched that tightly it is very sore, but literally once drained they are so much happier in every way and the pain has gone.
That's a lot of trust from a Geanapig of all animals. I know they tend to bite when they're afraid, and bite hard. So that's proof of how much he/ she trusts you.
Yes enormously but don't be tricked by the short jumps - this is more about the hold and a 'get off' gesture she is making. Take a look after the hold is removed. Sadly this this was necessary just to allow draining.
Oh it's so awful to see little creatures in pain like that. My little guinea pig Peanut developed some sort of tumor on her throat and the vet had to euthanize her.
Years ago, my Myrtle had a huge abscess on her side, it turned out from poking herself with a hay stem. My vet had ME lance it and clean it out as I would have to do the "follow-up" care on it. She had dark skin so the stuff in the abscess was nearly black and smelled terrible, and it took nearly a week for the piece of hay to work it's way from the wound with alot of help from tweetzers and flushing with antiseptic. When it was cleaned out, it healed up in about 48 hours and you'd never know it had been there! Absolutely astounding. He told me piggies are tough little critters. In the wild, she would have just scratched it out with her rear toe-nails and bit on it with her teeth, and it would have probably healed on it's own. He was the vet for the zoo, also.
My poor Linny managed to get a piece of hay embedded in her eye. The vet said that it had absorbed fluids and ended up bending into a hook shape. She had a scar on her eye after that, but it didn’t seem to bother her once it healed.
I'll never forget coming across this video awhile ago after I started my guinea pig sanctuary. Knowing how to properly handle a variety of health issues in house is vital. I have friends asking me "How do you do it?" I still just say I don't know, I just do!
Your kind & gentle ways along with the accuracy/knowledge of the care you took for this sweet piggie was so incredibly heart warming! And it truly seems like this little piggie can feel that too! Thank you for being so K I N D! 🥰 (I don't even have guinea pigs so I'm not sure how this popped up but I'm glad it did! It made me smile seeing your kindness! 🥰)
I work with animals and hearing her little squeaks makes my heart break. I’m glad someone professional like you is doing an amazing job to keep her calm and helping her. Get better soon little girl 🥺🥺❤️❤️
Just about the most precious looking piggy have ever seen. Really hope this is an issue that can be resolved. With my rats both jaw infections and jaw tumors have been very serious, difficult to treat and life threatening
I just hope that no one DIY’s these things with their piggy’s from here, but it’s really interesting to hear the facts as my baby boy had one too in the same spot
My cat had a similar abscess right of the side of her jaw caused by a really big bite wound. Except it popped open on it's own, it wasn't taken care of by a vet. So when suddenly all that gunk started spewing out, she was completely panicking and started shaking and running. My mother took care of it and she recovered pretty quickly without complications, but it was really horrible. Poor babies.
This would happen to a cat I once owned. He seemed to get abscesses every time he got into a scuffle with neighbor cats (this was back in the day when people commonly let their cats outside). I learned to apply warm damp cloths a couple of times a day so the abscesses would drain before they broke the skin off. I also started keeping my cats inside!
@@judycook4314 ALOT of people don't know this but people, dogs, and other animals can be bite my a cat and be just fine. But a cat biting another cat is extremely bad because of the bacteria in its mouth (yes all animals have bacteria in their mouths) but it always ends up as a bug infected wound when its from a cat to another cat 🐈
@melissabolton2668 actually if you get a deep bite by a cat, you need to seek medical care straight away. Preferably the ED!! I had 5 canine puncture bites from my fur-baby: 3 required hospitalisation (2 full surgeries to drain), and 2 visits to ed for IV antibiotics then home.
What a sweet girl. She did great with that. My mother had a piggy (what I called them as a toddler) that would’ve bitten the blood out of her if she’d tried that. But just a few peeps (literally) and then she’s just as sweet as you please.
Poor piggy. But it felt better when the pressure was relieved. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ i really appreciate the care you used in draining the abscess, including flushing and antibiotics.
That poor sweet baby! Oh I know she is going to feel so much better even though I'm sure that was so brutal for her. Little cries hurt my heart sweet girl. Prayers for a speedy recovery.
Poor little thing. I had a abscess on my leg. That was so filled it was about to pop on its own . The instant relief when releasing the pressure feels so amazing
Wow that must have hurt so badly! It would be like having an abscess the size of a basketball on your jaw/neck. She was in such pain she just let you do anything to her and didn't complain much at all about it. Poor baby!! Im so glad you helped her. I bet she took the most amazing nap after this
Something I can recommend, in case someone has a rodent (or other animal) with an abscess at home is to look and see if there is a possible wound or scab anywhere in the abscess area. Sometimes those occur if the abscess happened due to an injury (or due to the animal scratching the abscessed area so that a scab develops), and those can make the job a whole lot easier. Soaking the scab with warm water (not hot, just warm) will loosen it up so that it can easily be removed, which may actually cause the whole abscess to empty out. I have handled many abscesses in pet rats and one guinea pig like this. Of course, if there is any doubt whether the lump is an abscess or something else, always consult a vet. But sometimes, if you're lucky, these will be treatable at home, which will stress the animal less. Well done with the video, by the way!
A few minutes ago I was watching a Minecraft tutorial....and suddenly I'm watching a lovely lady caring for a little fur baby. Well done TH-cam and lovely lady!
amazing job, you are so gentle. those abscess pockets cannot numb inside very well no matter if injected because of the pH, better to relieve the pressure and remove the purulence to kickstart the healing.
What a god piggie and a marvelous nurse…..thanks for upload and continue your grand work. I feel kind of sorry for Guinea pigs. They are so laid back and well behaved, but often neglected.
I bet the little guinea piggie felt better, after getting that nasty abscess lanced. She may have been in some discomfort, but probably overall she felt relief. Good job, veterinarian! Get that cleaned out! Hope the piggie feels better and has healed.
I don't envy you the task of having to cause pain to an animal to show compassion which is obviously what you're doing you're healing which is always an admirable act.
i know exactly how relieved she must feel. as a kid i had a case of terrible boils that took forever to heal. the pain was excruciating. god bless her soul
Her little squeaks and twitches broke my soul 😭💔🥺
You can tell how much she trusts you ❤️❤️❤️

The guinea pig does look delicious

This is the bravest piggy I’ve ever seen!!!! Oh my goodness. Thank you for being gentle with her ❤️
Yes she needed help.

There’s a certain cathartic relief when you just know it’s all out.

Usually abscesses don’t have pain. Like the first cut should hurt but after that not.

That poor sweet baby! Oh I know she is going to feel so much better even though I'm sure that was so brutal for her. Little cries hurt my heart sweet girl. Prayers for a speedy recovery.
poor sweet little guinea pig ! you were so gentle with her
Thank you
Poor little one. She must be in quite a bit of pain. Quick recovery ❤
What a gentle girl. She didn't scratch or bite at all.
What a sweet little angel 😇 I hope she feels better 💗
Poor little thing. I had a abscess on my leg. That was so filled it was about to pop on its own . The instant relief when releasing the pressure feels so amazing
Wow that must have hurt so badly! It would be like having an abscess the size of a basketball on your jaw/neck. She was in such pain she just let you do anything to her and didn't complain much at all about it. Poor baby!! Im so glad you helped her. I bet she took the most amazing nap after this
you would barely have the energy to resist if youn were as sick as this poor animal was.
Poor little thing sending her good vibes thank you for doing what you do
Thanks Tracy
Poor baby hope it healed quickly for her thanks for helping her
Poor darlin'!! Nice job Lyn!! Hope you do a follow-up so we can see how she going! I'll know what to watch for with my girls.

Something I can recommend, in case someone has a rodent (or other animal) with an abscess at home is to look and see if there is a possible wound or scab anywhere in the abscess area. Sometimes those occur if the abscess happened due to an injury (or due to the animal scratching the abscessed area so that a scab develops), and those can make the job a whole lot easier. Soaking the scab with warm water (not hot, just warm) will loosen it up so that it can easily be removed, which may actually cause the whole abscess to empty out. I have handled many abscesses in pet rats and one guinea pig like this.
Of course, if there is any doubt whether the lump is an abscess or something else, always consult a vet. But sometimes, if you're lucky, these will be treatable at home, which will stress the animal less. Well done with the video, by the way!
I love how gentle , caring and loving you are with this little girl. 💖🙏

A few minutes ago I was watching a Minecraft tutorial....and suddenly I'm watching a lovely lady caring for a little fur baby. Well done TH-cam and lovely lady!
You’re welcome 😊
Wow, you did such a great job. So gentle and caring, lucky piggy!!
awwww she was so well behaved even when it must have hurt
amazing job, you are so gentle.
those abscess pockets cannot numb inside very well no matter if injected because of the pH, better to relieve the pressure and remove the purulence to kickstart the healing.

What a god piggie and a marvelous nurse…..thanks for upload and continue your grand work. I feel kind of sorry for Guinea pigs. They are so laid back and well behaved, but often neglected.
Yes, thanks
What a cutie so well behaved and sweet.

As adorable as I find piggies, your wonderful channel has shown me that they can indeed be way more than I would have bargained for!
Thank you so much!
What sweet girl!!! I know she feels so much relief!
I bet the little guinea piggie felt better, after getting that nasty abscess lanced. She may have been in some discomfort, but probably overall she felt relief. Good job, veterinarian! Get that cleaned out! Hope the piggie feels better and has healed.
I don't envy you the task of having to cause pain to an animal to show compassion which is obviously what you're doing you're healing which is always an admirable act.
Poor baby. Blessings to this piggy.
What a sweet girl she is. I hope she feels better soon!
Oh yes some time ago and well recovered now.
What a beautiful piggers! She so cute ❤️🥰 and tough as nails too apparently ❤️
i know exactly how relieved she must feel. as a kid i had a case of terrible boils that took forever to heal. the pain was excruciating. god bless her soul
U did a wonderful job. So gentle with her. Thanku
What an adorable sweetie.
