Lethargy and anorexia in guinea pigs are serious symptoms and can rapidly lead to life-threatening conditions due to their unique digestive system. It could be dental problems, a respiratory infection, digestive upset, or something more severe. Guinea pigs need to eat almost constantly to keep their gut moving. If your guinea pig hasn't eaten in 6-8 hours or is very inactive, they need immediate veterinary attention. Providing critical care food or finely chopped greens might help temporarily, but professional diagnosis is essential.
