My rabbit Rusty hasn't been eating or drinking for a few days, we actually think he hasn't been eating for a while and we just thought he was been fussy.
So we took him to the vets and we are syringe feeding him baby food and water. He was given a general anesthetic today to check his teeth and have a few xrays to try and figure out why. His teeth were fine but the vet was stumped by what she saw on the xray, we have been told that there is a small blockage but thats moving of its own accord. She then showed me a x ray of a healthy bunny and then showed me rusty's which was really different. Instead of his intestines been spread out they appear to be in his chest area with all his other organs, where they should be was just what appear to be an empty space. The vet told me she has never seen anything like it! So I have brought him home to be looked after by me tonight and then he is going back tomorrow. But I have been told he could pass away tonight or at anytime really.
What should I do?? Has anyone else heard anything like this??
Please help!!
