Wise Old Thumper
Rambo has been diagnosed during the last week with fluid on his lungs and an enlarged heart and mild renal issues. Fluid has now cleared and we now have appropriate meds to treat his condition.
We are still getting grumbling tummy each time he takes some food. He is on infacol and cisapride to keep things moving. He is also on zantac/metacam.
The problem we are having is that his appetite has changed and he will not eat hay or pellets (unless we hand feed him and they are wet) and is mainly on grass, herbs, carrot tops, black kale.
Has anyone else come across this in a rabbit with this i.e. that they are hungry but will not eat themselves and taste has changed to what they will usually eat. Any hints or tips as to how to get him back on hay (trying spraying with apple juice today)
