My guinea pig is coughing/sneezing. Does Petco have vets & prices?

Question

My guinea pig is coughing and sneezing. Oreo has been doing this since I bought him but thought it was due to water and the pallet food getting stuck while eating. I realized that he does it without eating or not and wanted to know if there is a vet at petsmart or petco for guinea pigs and if so, what are the prices?

Poor Oreo! Make sure you don’t have a cedar substrate - some Guinean pigs are allergic to this. My favorite substrate is carefresh. It look like cotton. Since he is coughing as well, I do worry about an upper respiratory infection. You will need to call the specific petco location that you are interested in going to as the prices may vary and you will need to be sure to make an appointment with a vet who is comfortable seeing guinea pigs. I hope this helps and he starts to feel better soon!
