Most Likely No. I Hear That When Animals Get A Cold, The Sneezing Will Not Go Away But It'll Still Feel Perfectly Fine And Will Be Treated By The Guinea Pig Like It's Just A Normal, Regular Sneeze.

Guinea pigs don't get colds. Sneezing and nasal discharge are signs of Upper Respitory Infections. Left untreated can be fatal, guinea pigs go downhill very fast.

Take him to a experienced exotics veterinarian ASAP, this is a very serious and deadly infection.

Please educate yourself regarding proper care and how to spot signs of illnesses before it's too late.

If it is sneezing, it is from the bedding you are using in it's cage. Please switch to a non-wood bedding as this causes respritory infections in Guinea Pigs. Try "aspen" brand.
