My Daisy went off her food last night so she had the basic home treatment of metacam, Infacol, boiled tepid water and tummy rubs and within a couple of hours she was back to normal! While I was stroking her and very very gently stroking her tummy she was doing a shivering thing! Ive noticed this before when mine or my friends buns go off their food! I assume it's a pain response as its not constant shivering and it generally starts and stops with the stroking motion! Ive always asssumed that its their way of saying that they have a little pain just where youre stroking! Does anyone know different? Daisy had cold ears so could it just be actual shivering because their body temp has dropped?! Or is at a fear response because they're not feeling well and don't know what's happening?
, they are both producing a few stringers at the mo as both are starting an early moult, I've been trying to remove excess tufty bits but they are fluff monsters! Daisy's digestive system doesn't function normally anyway as she has caecal dysbiosis and all the normal attempts to cure it have failed! She does produce nice golden poops though and I haven't seen a reduction of size so I'm hoping this was nothing more sinister! It seemed logical the shivering was pain, but just thought I'd ask, Id hate to think its because she was frightened!
