Mama Doe
Update: Last night he was very happy and ran around quite a bit, as well as eating a little for himself. We left him in a much less restricted area overnight so he could continue to move around more. I woke up this morning to find he hadn't touched his greens, had pretty much sat in the same spot all night (though not sprawled out like in the photo), and had done minimal small black pellets. That was at 6.30 so I gave him his medicines and syringe fed him. I just can't understand how he improved last night and then is back to this again in the mornings. I'm knackered from getting up so frequently to check him, I just want him to get better
I rung my vets this morning and booked him in for 9am tomorrow. Unfortunately one of the vets at the practice is allergic to rabbits so they're finding it hard to get me an appointment sooner but will ring me back today if they can squeeze me in. If he gets any worse I'll take him to another practice but I trust my vet completely and don't want to go elsewhere ideally.
Poor Phillip If there has been no improvement at all today then personally I would contact the Vet again to request that Phillip is re-assessed. It sounds as though he may need some additional pain relief, sometimes metacam alone is not enough.
