Josie's not well. She's eating very little, mostly hay and brambles. She's still pooing, but they're very small now, with a bit of fur in them.
She's moulting, but I'm not sure that's the cause. I just can't put my finger on it. The emergency vet has a dog to see, then he's phoning me back. But he knows very little about rabbits. I wish I had more to go on.
Her stomach does feel a little large considering how little she's eaten today, but she's not showing signs of gut pain, more general pain. She's still moving about, but not with any enthusiasm. Ears? Teeth? I wish I had an otoscope in times like this.
I've given her Metacam and syringed water. I can't do much else until a blockage has been ruled out. Hope the dog doesn't take too long.
