I know some of the heavier duty painkillers are morphine based and can knock rabbits out a bit - I can't open any of the stuff I find on Google - I'm assuming this is one of the morphine/opioid ones?
I've got Elijah home and after breathing very fast and being panicked for a good fifteen minutes he's now very, very quiet. He has sniffed at a Fenugreek Crunchie and not bothered further. He's only been home about 40 minutes though so very early, it was only a 10 minute drive though. Invoice says Buprecare on today's entry ... why-oh-why if he's doing so well has he been given a heavy duty painkller today. This happened with Esme too, she was sent home immediately after being given strong painkiller, so was out of it.
I'm supposed to be making sure he eats well, surely knocking him out isn't a good plan. I'm going to have to ring and ask when he was given it but knowing if this could be the reason that he's just laid there would be helpful.
Thanks.
Edit to add: He was given it this morning (don't know what time but that makes it at least 4 hours ago) so hopefully he won't be heavily sedated and will nom soon.
