Hi Everyone..
I've been up all night sweating, stressing, and in a pure state of anxiety..
my bun has his conscious dental on tue last week, and seemed to be eating fine, but I noticed a couple of days ago, he was just a bit picky with his food.. and its close to the time when he would normally have a GA full dental too. (he's done this before also though when he hasn't had teeth issues) and even though he's been picky last couple of days, and pushing his dish away, once he had the food in his mouth he seemed fine..and chomping away like normal
Anyway, I woke up yesterday morning and noticed there was no poops, and he hadn't touched his pellets, but ate smalll amounts of veg, which is all he's eaten in the last 24 hours. he is moving around, and still cleaning himself etc, and not grinding his teeth or showing any signs of pain.
he's also moulting heavily, and hes done this a few times before when he's moulting also but his teeth were fine, usually passes large poops, and he picks up again..
We usually give him fluids, but there used to me and my parnter and my partner left and I find it practically impossible to manage him on my own..
So.. my dilema is, If I take him to the vets this morning for fluids, but not put him for his teeth (because I don't know for sure its that) and then it turns out it is, he still wont be able to eat
If I do put him in for his full dental and it's not his teeth, and its fur etc, I've put him through the increased stress and extra risk of anasthetic whilst his tum is already slowed down
When they take them in for a dental I just drop him off so never get chance to see a vet usually first.. but I book him in first thing for fluids, they might not be able to do his teeth today sort of thing, I'm waiting for them to open at 8 so I can hopefully talk with someone..
Sorry if this post doesn't make a lot of sense I been up all night, trying to decide what best to do.. obviously VET first thing either way.
Thank You
