my guinea pig was 4 yrs old, & recently he had a filing on his MOLARS and his INCISORS. he was given anesthesia (we were informed of the risks) by a CERTIFIED VET at a clinic in SW Chicago suburbs, and for unknown reasons they gave him an injection of the antibiotic BAYTRIL, which i later found could cause a decrease in appetite. he seemed like he was better before his tooth filing than afterwards, he stopped eating and drinking even after we softened his food. he just sat in his house & would either sleep or just lie there. also we think he was sick before his filing, however he seemed to have been better for a few days. i found him dead in his cage this morning, help me why/how did he die? was the vet at fault? only answer if you know what you're talking about, please!! i need to know i still have one guinea pig i don't want the same thing to happen to him and future pets!!!!
