Hi
Baby Kia, 10-12 weeks old and only had her since Monday has developed gut statis. took her to the vet last night where she got an injection consisting of painkiller, antibiotic and something to get the gut moving. about an hour after coming back from the vet she ate some hay and drank some water and did one 'stuck together' poo. i had to take her back to the vet this morning and although she was a wee bit brighter the vet kept her in for fluids and more injections. got her back this afternoon and she still hasn't eaten anything apart from some fruit juice that i gave her from a syringe. she did manage out of her hutch and was exploring a wee bit but she is still not eating or pooing. i have to return to the vet in the morning with her. in the meantime does anyone have any suggestions of how i can tempt her to eat? i have tried all foods i can so far!
thanks
Gill
