Hi
My Poppy has suffered with recurring stasis over the past 11 years and I have had to cut out all greens in the past but she can tolerate dried herbs and pellets (only soya free) and we got quite a good run of about 19 months free of stasis. She has always been a pretty good hay eater and she is a free range house rabbit. However (typically) just before the start of lockdown she had several episodes and she was on and off Emeprid and my brilliant rabbit-savvy bet has said due to the fact he is self-isolating I should just keep her on the Emeprid until I can see him again in 10 days.
I’m at a loss as to what is causing it, I’ve changed nothing and her environment hasn’t changed and the couple of times I have dropped a dose (in the morning), she has stopped eating, hence my vet saying to just continue for the next couple of weeks.
She doesn’t respond well when the dose is dropped.
I just wish I could figure it out as she’s 11 and I do worry about her. If anybody has any suggestions (and I’ve racked my brains), I’d be grateful! X
