Fluffy not eating :0( any advise welcome.!

Fluffs mum

Warren Scout
He has had this morning one pellet ... They are done to one third of an egg cup between them so normally is an all out race to see who gets to it first. Teeny mouthful of grass and a couple of carroty treats . Even refused fenugreek crunchies.

He had a dental 3 weeks ago so whipped them to vets this norming not his teeth that he could see and not stais so had pain killer at about 11 am but still has not eaten anything.

I have not been out there all the time as he keeps looking at me as if to say leave me alone .. Oh and he had one bit of hay at the vets..

My only worry is that leaves have been blowing into their hutch and they both have been eating them. No idea what type of leaves we are surrounded by trees . Stereotypical leaf shape now gone yellow some with black spots on them as leaves do this time of year

... Looks like I will be taking him back soon :0(

Any wise words from the ru wise ones?
 
Jane is wise, I'm not! Just wondered if they had done x-rays of his teeth as vets can't always tell what's going on with one, so may still be his teeth.
 
As far ask can see yes but he has a wifey so not 100 % sure. When I changed them this morning there was a lot of poo. Have not seen him drink this morning even when I hide and watch him . He looks so miserable :0(
 
I would definitely take him back today, it seems he's in pain that he is looking miserable and not eating. Poor little Fluffy.
 
He's back in now vet not sure what's going on :cry: no stais not bloat but just not eating . Am thinking its those blasted leaves he in there overnight for fluids , an biotic and lots of fingers crossed :(
 
Thank you all xx he has had fluids and has been eating out of a nurses hand. :love: so hopefully we will have our little special boy home tomorrow xx
 
I hope Fluffy is feeling much better and comes home today.

These little furry friends know how to worry us don't they?!


Get well soon vibes for Fluffy. xxxxxxxx
 
Phew he is home and binking around happily and munching hay. We go back Monday for a check up tomakedure he is 100% thank you all for your good wishes . I think the vet felt sorry for me as only charged £38 for an overnight stay for both of them and syringe feeding !
