Rascal is 6 next month and although he's had a couple of episodes of full on stasis ...... he'll also, now and again, go off his food for a few hours but then be perfectly fine afterwards.
Take last night for example, he had his tea at about 5pm and was running round like a nutter in the garden with Hollie for a couple of hours.
I went out to give them their supper at about 10.30pm and he completely refused it. He let me massage his tummy and I tried to get him to run round a bit which he did, albeit reluctantly (lots of feet flicking).
I stayed up with him massaging him and keeping a close eye on him (because he has done this before) and I kept offering different kinds of foods that I knew he liked until eventually he had a nibble on some dandelion and oat hay. I carried on checking on him through the night (I love bunnycam even more now) .... he ate some hay and generally mooched around ....... then this morning he was running round like a nutter again and wolfed his breakfast down!!
He's done it a few times now and has been perfectly fine afterwards. Terrifies me every time and I'm always 'at the ready' for a dash to the vets.
Does anyone else have a bunny who does this??
