Some of these are not exactly 'diseases', but are just health problems:

Overgrown teeth

Overgrown nails

Upper Respiratory (dusty bedding)

Abscess

Hair loss or scabs (if they have fleas)

Matting (for Peruvians if you don't groom them)

diarrhoea (sudden change in diet, too much of light green vegetables (I think))

Obesity (too many treats)
