ok, so i know im probably being completley paranoid but Sherpa is breathing funny.
he isnt distressed or hot as his cage is constantly in the shade now but iv just been watching him and he is breathing quite deeply-i wouldnt go far as saying it was laboured. it just seems that when he breathes his whole body moves with the breath as if he needs his whole body to breathe-i hope that makes sense!
i compared it to my other bunnies, who are just breathing normally :? the usual, chest moves when breathes, but even then you can hardly see it.
He is still drinking, pooing etc. he has only eaten a little today, but he is proper old fashioned and normally only eats at dawk and dusk :roll:
any ideas? i know bad breathing in cats and dogs isnt a fab sign, but im hoping im just being paranoid
