Is It ok if I get bit by my gunia pig and do not see my docter? Do I need a shot?

Question

I was playing with my 7 weeks old gunia pig, and i tried to put leash around his neck, then he bit my finger. Should I do something about myself?

Answer 1

as long as it didnt break the skin then it fine   but if it did go to a doctor.   ps dont put a leash around his neck

Answer 2

its fine! wash it out and put disinfecting spray on it...

Answer 3

Your finger will be fine, wash it off and put disenfectant on it.

In my experience, guinea pigs don't take well to leashes. Rabbits and ferrets yes, but guinea pigs no. However, if you are set on putting your guinea pig on a leash (despite the dangers of injury to your piggie) please go slowly. Patience is the key to training guinea pigs.

Answer 4

when putting those on pigs they can choke them. and it make them made. clean it up and bandade it.ur pig still will luv u.

Answer 5

Just wash with soap and water then put some Neosporin and a band-aid on it.  You will be fine.

Answer 6

ull be fine, mine bit me and i never had to get a a shot. just put a disinfectant on it and maybe a bandage to keep it clean.

Answer 7

if it was a small bite that didnt hurt instead tickled then its not that bad, but if it even bleeded and left marks and of course hurted then i would recomend you to see your doctor before the bite gets infected          wish you luck
