Hi all,
I noticed yest that Rolo-bun wasnt hopping right. Sort of tiptoeing on his back feet. He was eating and using his litter ok. I had a very careful feel and couldnt feel anything out of ordinary.
Kept an eye on him all day and at tea-time decided to nip him to vets. Vet examined him all over and couldnt find anything wrong either. Infact, he hopped properly while at the vets. He gave him a shot of painkiller and told us to fetching him back on Mon if he was no better, but that he was confident that he would be back to normal today, and he thought it was a pulled ligmant/muscle.
Brough Rolo home and he hopped about abit and then retired to his cage. I opened cage this morn and he hasnt come out all day. Hes eaten. Infact there is NOTHING wrong with his appetite and hes used his litter and poo'd. Also, I noticed him cleaning and eating the ceacel poo ( spelling??) as he normaly does. So far today hes had almost a full head of spring greens, a few cabbage leaves, a brocolli fleurette, 3 mint sprigs, handful of parsley, a small chunk of apple. And his usually pellets. Plus hay.
So, what can be the matter with him???? Im a loss really.
Any help appreciatied.
