Hi RU i'm so worried about my Rabbit Roger and was wondering if anyone has any ideas what could be wrong?
He is 1 1/2yrs old now and at the weekend we noticed he was a little thinner than usual but he was eating, drinking pooing so just decided to keep our eye on him.
On Monday he was still losing weight so removed him from his girlfriend (as shes a greedy girl) so we could monitor him more closely. Still eating as normal, moving around as normal, pooing normal. He just looking a lot thinner!! Well Tuesday was pretty much the same and still getting thinner but by now we know he's defiantly eating all his pellets, veg, hay etc as we really thought his girlfriend was maybe not letting him eat?!
Today he is still showing 'normal behavior' but i bought a new battery for my scales as was getting thinner again and much to my shock he has lost half his weight So of course i take him straight to emergency vet but she wasn't really any help?!!
He got a pain killer injected (not showing any signs of pain) and sent home with baytril and I've to take him back in a week?! He's lost 1/2 stone in such a short space of time and really don't understnad whats wrong with him? The way he's going i don't think he will last that long!! But i have no idea what is wrong and neither does vet?!
He is now a little more quite than usual but he often is after the vets he sulks!! Please can anyone help?
