Signs Your Guinea Pig Is Cold
When a guinea pig gets cold it usually shivers, puffs up its fur, and drops in body temperature, which easily leads to a cold with coughing, sneezing and loss of appetite. Keep the habitat at 20–29°C, add bedding and warmth in winter, and watch for shivering or huddling in a corner.

Guinea pigs benefit greatly from coccidia prevention, since an infection can be fatal — especially in young pups that are hard to treat. Prevention combines a clean, dry, well-ventilated habitat, enough vitamin C, and a short course of diclazuril solution, though healthy adult guinea pigs with strong immunity usually need no medication.
