Back in May. I took my Parker to be neutered and was told in fact she would need a dental and her teeth were in a really bad condition. The (rather tactless I thought) vet said they would do the op but could make no guarantees it would fix the problem and if it re-occurred then it was best for the rabbit to PTS.
As you can imagine I was devastated and recently I have started to get quite paranoid that Parker's teeth are going to get bad again and I may lose her. No real proof/evidence of this, I think I may have heard some teeth grinding on occasion but nothing definite. Today when I came home from work I noticed there was clump of soft poos and that she looked like she may have a bit of a dirty bum. Now this just could be that she's sat in a clump of soft poos or it may be that it's due to her teeth. This was what happened last times so I've made an appointment with the vets tonight to get her teeth checked.
Am so worried.... Really hoping it's nothing and I'm just getting paranoid but can't help thinking what if she does need another dental. She's only a year old. And what do I do if the vet says the same as last time about PTS??
With regards to the soft poos (which I do see on occasion) is this down to diet?
I give my rabbits a small portion of pellets in the morning and a serving of veg in the evening. They also have lots of hay and forage available throughout the day.
