Hi guys,
So this is going to sound very odd but please bear with me.. So Bailey again!
He is a very spoilt house bunny with a cat bed, cardboard castle, 2 litter trays loaded with hay and a pets at home wooden house. However he doesn't use any to settle down in and much prefers to sleep on the carpet or my kitchen tiles which is fine. However the last couple of nights he has been ice cold to touch in the mornings when I greet him. He has his breakfast fine and then looks at the radiator, Basically waiting for me to turn it on. Now it's not cold in our house at all, but as soon and I turn the radiators on, he lies out fully next to them and will almost cook himself. He gets so warm.. And then starts binkying and running round.
I'm just starting to worry as surely he can't be cold at night can he?? But then again he is eating fine and not showing any signs of being in pain or having a slow gut.. So why is he ice cold to touch first thing in the morning?
or could it be his ears? We have started to reduce his metacam as he's not actually showing any signs of being in pain! He's eating like a trooper and doesn't shake his head like he did when we first realised. But he's only been dropped from 0.8 twice daily to 0.5 twice daily?
I don't really want to ask the vets yet as they'll probably think I'm mad.. So any advice would be appreciated! Thanks guys xx
