Dear everyone,
My bunny Harry (4, uncastrated) isn't himself. Yesterday he wouldn't run up to see me or follow me around as he normally would and he seemed listless. So, I rang up the vet and the nurse saw him straight away. She couldn't see any reason why he should be ill at all, and as he seemed to perk up a bit and he had eaten as much as usual she said to bring him back today if he wasn't right.
Well, this morning, he was back to 100% normal. Perfectly happy, running around like a nutter, had eaten as usual. But within the past hour he's suddenly gone back to being miserable, not moving, lying down funny and just not interested in anything. He didn't run straight for his food, hay or any greens either, I tried a variety. I've just left him now to be quiet (he lives in a shed) and will go and check on him again in an while.
Has anyone got any advice or had similar problems? I'm worried he's going to die but I took him straight to the vet yesterday and then he seemd ok today, apart from now. I'll obviously get him a 9am appointment tomorrow if he doesn't eat but does anyone have any ideas? Please help a desperate mum!
