Alpha Buck
He was really off earlier, he wasn't moving, I thought there was something wrong when I went outside and he didn't come say hi. But then I got some apple and he perked up and started circling me for treats so I just thought it was silly paranoid mummy syndrome. That was about 6:30pm.
I went out to put them away about 20 minutes ago and he went straight to his bed area and wouldn't come out for food. I tried to give him Metacam which he loves and he wouldn't take it. He has a slight head tilt now, he's just so off especially how he usually is. He hasn't moved off my knee since I brought him in. He keeps closing his eyes.
We brought him inside and he took his metacam and some pellets and lettuce. He's asleep on my knee but he just isn't right. My mum and I were talking about the emergency vet but they are **** with rabbits, we took our last rabbit there and they charged us £200 and didn't help at all. So I'm waking up at 8am to book an emergency appointment with our rabbit savvy vets . The main vet is away though. We'll get him everything he needs, but I'm just so scared.
He's perked up a bit now. He has given me a couple of kisses, and weed on me :roll: He's munching at the pellets. But he's just not himself. He's only a baby still and he's been ill his whole life. 10 months old and 10 months of being ill. Snuffles, this. Could this be snuffles related, or does the tilt mean it could be ec??
I'm putting him back out with Bella in the hutch in a bit as I know it would stress him more to be on his own, but I've blocked off the bottom so he can't go on the ramp and I took out the litter tray and just filled half of the top with hay instead so he doesn't have to jump to get to the hay.
Oh god. I'm just trying not to sob
