One of the three young guinea pigs we adopted from the RSPCA. She was very underweight and unresponsive when we got her but she seems to be doing fine now after a few days of syringe feeding. At the moment we're calling her 'baby' because my brother can't come up with a name.
UPDATE: Unfortunately, Baby died this afternoon. We thought she had fully recovered and she appeared perfectly healthy for a week-or-so but she rapidly deteriorated last night. The vet said there was little hope for her survival so we made her as comfortable and warm as possible and she passed away in her sleep. We're awaiting test results to see what the problem was. The people at the RSPCA said she was most likely very inbred so perhaps it was something to do with that?
She was a lovely girl and I hope she wasn't in too much pain. :(
