I have come across something that I never seen before. My bun since 3 days ago (Tues) has a mild GI stasis. Now I have seen him having GI stasis for a few years, he likes to chew the towel that he pees on, but the towel is cotton, so, it's not a serious GI stasis, and in the past, I give 0.34 ml of metacam, and syringe feed some water every 1/2 hr., and in a few hr., everything back to normal, and he goes back to his regular eating / drinking.
Then on Wed. night, he's not eating the treats while the other bun is eating it, and that's usually the sign of another mild GI stasis. So, I give him another 0.34 ml of metacam, as it's been 24 hr. and this time, he doesn't need any syringe feed water, and everything back to normal.
Then last night (Thurs), same symptoms, he's not eating the normal stuff. (In between during the day, his diet is normal.) So I gave 0.34 ml of metacam, and syringe feed twice, then everything back to normal again this morning (Fri).
But just now, same thing, he's not eating the treat and the other usual symptoms like stomach panting. Eventhough ea. GI stasis is mild, I don't understand what's happening.
Normally, his GI stasis, due to towel chewing happens about 5 to 6 times per year. And I have never seen a few mild GI stasis back to back.
Has anyone seen this before?
