Nutmeg has started making a funny grunting noise when she's eating. She's never done this before, but I noticed it a little last night and even more today.
I know some bunnies do this when they are just enjoying the food, but could it be anything else? I'm a bit concerned as I've never heard her make this noise before. She's just over a year old now and I've had her since she was 4 weeks old (her mummy died which is why she came to me so young).
She is acting perfectly normally. No discharge or wetness around her nose. When she eats she doesn't look to be struggling and is eating perfectly normally. Her breathing is quiet when she's not eating, it's only when she's munching that I hear the noise. It was quite loud this evening.
I'm a worrier, so will more than likely take her to the vet next week just to get her checked over, but wondered if anyone had any ideas in the meantime.
Thanks in advance.
