DO NOT plunge the guinea pig into cold water - the shock alone will kill it.
Instead it is best to wrap the guinea pig in a damp flannel. Then ring the emergency vet - they don't last long when they get heat stroke... I know this from experience.
dont let the one back out into the sun like that you sick sick person?And lots of water and rest
CPR.
dont leave them out in the sun
Dig a hole and bury them.
you can rush them to the vet but its a lot cheaper to just get a new guinea pig. Other than that have water close to where they are outside and dont let them out when its too hot.
another example of how all pet owners should be licensed and should have to pass test on animal care before they get one, which should be very expensive.
The idea is that, if you are silly enough to let it happen that one time, you actually LEARN from that mistake and you NEVER let it happen again.
Do you understand that???? You don't EVER leave them in the sun. What a shame there is no way to give common sense to those who have none.
My only other suggestion would be to give your poor remaining guinea pig to a person who has a brain.
