I really want to know if there's any vet in Malaysia who knows how to treat a guinea pig. My most devastating memory with pets is the death of my guinea pig because of a very incompetent vet. I had been looking around for a good vet who knows how to treat guinea pigs. Til now, I have dreams about my dead guinea pig because I really feel that her death is evitable. I went to two vets whom humbly told me they had no expertise in treating guinea pigs. That's acceptable. Then when I went to the  THIRD vet in the government animal hospital in Cheras, my pet was attended by a female vet. I am fine that the previous two vets told me they didn't know how to treat my sick pet.

But this female vet in the government animal hospital's service was UNACCEPTABLE. I had been crying, carrying my sick pet into the room, running as fast as I could, trying to do all that I could to save her life. I went into the room, I was crying, trying to explain everything that happened in the past week, about her loss of apetite etc. She had been limping. So I asked her if she would please help me diagnose her. The vet said, she's just fine. I was determined and told her, there's really something wrong about her. She's not eating like usual, not acting like her usual self. I know it because she had been with me for months so I know how she was usually like.

Then, the vet said to me "JANGAN BUANG MASA SAYA LAH. DIA NI MUSCLE SPRAIN SAJA. SAYA TAK BOLEH BAGI UBAT APA-APA" I begged again so that she could look more into it. She kept pulling my guinea pig's limbs and claimed that she was having muscle sprain. I begged for her to give at least vitamin c so that her immunity system could stand. She kept saying, "JANGAN BUANG MASA SAYA". I was so furious because how could she not understand how much an owner's love towards his/her pet. How could I watch her die when I knew something was wrong with her but I couldn't do a thing about it??? I just grabbed the box and stormed off the door. The vet was shocked. 3 days later, my guinea pig DIED. I just wish to send a greeting card back to the vet to congratulate her on misdiagnosing my pet and TOLD ME THAT I WAS WASTING HER TIME!!!! wasting her time?? She's a vet, she's supposed to attend to my guinea pig and at least tried to refer my pet to another vet if she's incompetent. My guinea pig's death still haunt me. If she had no idea what to do, just tell me so I can go to another vet to save my guinea pig. SHE SAID TO ME I WAS WASTING HER TIME??? Which university did she graduate from? Never learn ethics is it?
Three months later, I found out that all her signs showed that she had middle ear infection.
