Sold me a guinea pig with visible ringworm patches on his nose (I didn't know it was ringworm then). It was in Brislington in Bristol. I treated him for 3 weeks, giving him medicines twice daily and had to disinfect everything at home. He also had mites. 2 months later decided to get a second younger guinea pig as one felt lonely. 2 days after purchase it became ill passing it to the older one. Both had antiobiotics treatment for 2 weeks, twice daily. One week later a younger one was diagnosed with ringworm and, again, had to treat both of them. 30 days after purchase, after me giving both of them medicines twice daily and getting emotionally attached, the younger one died. The initial infection caused a brain damage. I saw him dying, it was terrible! I will never ever go back to this store! They should not be selling pets!
