Hi everyone Iam praying someone will be able to ease my mind regarding my presious little bunny Jimby.
My husband and I adopted him from a friend of a friend when he was 6 months old, he has recently turned 1 a couple of weeks ago.
He has always had a "sensitive" tummy and has had 4 previous bouts of GI Statis, due to anesthetic used when he was neutered, when rear guard was used and we beleive stress, which now brings me to Monday this week, Jimby stopped eating and thinking back he had not been quite so interested in his food a couple of days before so as soon as he started to refuse food on monday I rushed him to the vets who confimed he was in statis and that his tummy felt doughy. He has continued to poop throughout all be it only small and dry ones but they were there none the less, his poos seemed to be getting a bit better yesterday only to go back to being very small and dry again today. He has been given the gut stimulating drugs twice a day, science recovery and a few other bits. He had some small molor spurs on his bottom jaw which the vet filed down in case they were causing him pain, this was done on Wednesday and he is still eating very little, he has had somd mint leaves, basil leaves and a tiny bit of pear but i really have to force him to eat it, i am at my wits end and terrified that i might loose him, he is my baby and i love him so
much. The vet has said if he is not eating by tomorrow he is going to have to be hospitalized.
We are trying to temp him with EVERYTHING we can but hr is being so stubborn.
Has anyone had this?
Please help us.
