I am flipping out a bit right now because my rabbit seems to be going exactly through the same problem my previous rabbit died from.
I woke up in the morning to find Mila not being quite herself: she did not want noms and seemed uncomfortable. She wanted to stretch out but was immediately sitting up again. So I immediately called the vet and made an appointment. Her temperature was 35.8 and he felt softish mass in her stomach and slightly gassy intestines. He suspected a hairball, because Mila was shedding monstrously and I combed her often but it seemed the more I combed, the more fur there was to shed. I was sent home with Cisaral, Novacam, Paraffin and Critical Care. I stuffed her in the small carrier with two bottles of hot water to get her temperature up but not before she got Cisaral, paraffin and some Critical Care in. I guess I just have to wait and see and keep giving her the meds. If she does not perk up by tomorrow or eat on her own I have to call back.
But seeing that my previous rabbit Mira died of similar causes I am, like I've said, flipping out a bit. I really could not help Mira but I hope I caught Mila in time. But I am so paranoid I keep thinking I can feel her bloat up but that rabbit is also fat so I suspect I am jumping on shadows. I hope I am doing everything. I am scared to wake up tomorrow and find another bloated half-dead rabbit.
Hugs for Mila? T_T
