Hi All..
I know I already have a post similar to this, but thought It might be useful for others as well perhaps to start it new..
but my bun suddenly stopped eating/pooping/drinking tuesday night.. (just a tiny amount of veg), he was in vets first thing yesterday morning, and they extracted hs front tooth, and gave him fluids, critical care foods, and metaclopromide.. (he was also moulting heavily but that seemed to of stopped now)
He still wont touch his pellets, but has been eating spring greens, plantain, and small amounts of mashed carrots since he got home yesterday (there was still no poops though) as anyone who read my other post knows. I had (as many do) and ridiculously difficult time trying to syringe critical care, or any type of food formula into him
Then about an hour ago he did a few almost pellet shaped pellets, followed by a big pile of mush, then a few more almost pellets.. he was in his tray for ages. he finally finsihed in his tray and hopped out and had a little drink. first time I've seen him drink since last week, as I think he was getting water from the carrots..
Now he's sitting on the step doing that thing they do where it looks like he's chattering to himself and then checking his bum every minute or so..
I'm worried because I havnt been able to get any critical care in him, and hes only been eating veg and plantain. he's back at the vets tommorrow anyway for post op check up.. and he seems more alert so I'm guessing these are good signs? reason I'm asking is because I don't want to really stress him out again, and probably fail at syringing him now it seems his tum is moving again and he is eating veg and drinking... in case it sets it back again sort of thing..he's back at the vets first thing tommorrow anyway for post op check up..
Thanks
Martin
