Is my guinea pig ok i think she might be depressed what can i do for her?

I had two 6 year old guinea pig sisters. Hershey died two days ago.Hershey was more friendly then Kisses. Kisses is scared of people and shakes when you hold her. She seems very upset that her sister died. She ussually stays hiding in bed and Hershey used to sleep in the hay. Now Kisses is always in the hay and it seems like she is fighting with it. She lays there then all of the sudden she starts kicking and biting the hay holder. She also seems to be bleeding. On the blanket she sleeps on it was bloody the day Hershey died I thought it was from Hershey so i through out the blanket and put a new one. It was bloody again yesterday and today. What should I do to make her happy again. Its Sunday so I cant take her to the vet untill tommarow.Is my guinea pig ok i think she might be depressed what can i do for her?
It's good that you are taking her to the vet because it seems like something is really wrong with her. Also what about getting a new piggy so kisses has a new cage buddy.Is my guinea pig ok i think she might be depressed what can i do for her?
Put an old towel on a floor with a bin bag underneath and put some toys and treats out, let her run around and stroke her. Talk to her or play some quiet music (my guinea pigs love Lily Allen, weirdly)
Talk to her and stroke her, it's likely that she is depressed although it also looks like she might be sick. Do what you can to get her to eat and make sure she keeps drinking. If the worst comes to the worst and she passes as well then at least she had a happy last day
Make sure you take her to the vets when you can, and if she gets better think about getting a little friend for her
