Timing dentals U/D reason for abnormal poops page 18#180
- Thread starter thumps_
- Start date
Just heard from Marie, he's round from his dental & I'll pick him up at 4.45.
Whooop whoop!!! I'm so relieved.
Hey, she also told me that he stamps with his front feet too, in disapproval of his medicines. I've known him stamp with both back feet together - a big no-no, but never front ones. My bun wasn't called Thumper for nothing!!

Yay! Fantastic news!
xThank you so much for all your support every one.
All is coming back to normal now, with bigger poops at last, instead of titchy "stasis"poops, & he has just made a good effort with his hay.
He was very woozy, & got very cold in the short journey home. He had a bit of "the shakes", which has worn off. (Muscle tremors) I don't know whether this is anaesthetic or whether buns actually shiver with cold.
It's better for us psychologically if he comes home woozy. He just gradually "comes round" in his own environment & we carry on. If he's fully alert, there is a period of estrangement, & he seems so small & alone in a "hostile" world, as if his trust in me has been breached. Although it's more likely to be a rabbit "bonding" issue. I usually speak of his "strops", but the truth is he's more expressive of enjoyment & excitement. I can't imagine a bun who purrs more easily.
I think I've answered my own question. I feel that we took it to the limit before a dental this time. I'm so thankful for Great Western Referrals, especially for Marie, & the receptionists, who always manage to fit us in somehow, when I can only give 4 days notice.
I've been quietly thinking of those who have contributed to this thread, most with dental/stasis buns yourselves. There's Ginger, Eric, Lola, possibly Bisc. & Alvin who's a law unto himself. We've all been through the stress with the first problems, the worry of recognizing recurrence early enough, (each bun a unique individual,) the sleepless nights bunny nursing, & we've all struggled, & finally succeeded in finding good rabbit vets we really can trust.
I wish you all a wonderful Christmas with your bunnies.

Hi Maizey - Thank you. No you aren't late, we didn't quite make it to the appointment.
He's back to his lively self just now& nicely warm. If he runs true to form it'll be a few days before he's eating normally again.
Goodness but his teeth really clatter when he purrs immediately after a dental. So funny when he's woozy because he starts to purr & then "drops off".

He's on really good form this morning, "happy ears" wanting to play & be fussed, so there's a fair bit of "thumping" going on. It's ideal to help him work up an appetite.
I had the official go ahead to warm his metacam. I hadn't thought that it would also improve the taste.
