I don't normally post on these forums, but here goes.
I have a 3yr old black and white english lop eared called Chester. At the age of 21 my mum was hoping i had grown out of the furry animal stage.
His normal behaviour is that he doesnt like to be handled and will struggle, also will run away from me, yet loves the dogs and will follow them round the house.
During the summer he lives out doors while in the winter he will come inside and stay in my room.
Last night my parents where cleaning out the fridge and decided to spoil him by giving him a bag of salad, half a celery and a small amount of tomatoes.
This morning i found him hunched in the corner, allowing his head to get wet by the water bottle above him. He didnt seem jumpy at all, and when i picked him up he hardly struggled and cuddled up to me.. I put him outside hoping that will cheer him up and instead he is huddled in his bed really sleepy. At one point this morning his ears where cold also.
Is this a case of a tummy ache!? I know rabbits stomachs are very sensitive and normally he gets a carrot once a week on top of his daily rabbit food, hay and water.
Please help. Becky x
