Wise Old Thumper
I found Pip inappetant last night after hours. About 9 PM, not sure if she'd eaten anything all day as I was running about trying to get the house cleaned up since my daughter is coming home this morning.
She only took a piece of kale and a craisin off me last night at 10 or 12. She ignored her hay cake which is a big red flag, but since she was only sitting in her litterbox, not really tummy pressing, had passed a few smallish poos and some strings of pearls. plus seemed like she wanted to wee wherever she sat and would lift her tail but just a dribble out and her water bowl seems untouched. I thought it was likely some ingested fur and I could pull her through. As of 4 a.m. she'd still not eaten or passed anything else, but she'd taken quite a few mls of bunny tummy tea so I had to try to sleep a bit and figured I'd check her this morning.
It's after 6:30 am here now, she hasn't moved, hasn't pooed and feels very empty whereas last night I thought I could hear and feel what I though were some contents moving. Her upper gut had felt a bit firm but shifted before I went to sleep. Now it's like there's nothing in there.
Scared to death...OH won't be back with daughter for another two hours and I am far too groggy to drive in. Syringing some Critical Care now which she took a bit of but she seems really tired. She licks her lips like she wants something but she's not really hungry for anything. She is not as "lively" for lack of a better word as last night.
Vet won't open will 8. I'm hoping to get her admitted. But I've never seen her like this before and I'm afraid I'll lose her by then.
Help please? My daughter can't come home to find her bunny has died.
