So many THANK YOUS to you all.
I am seriously so happy and relived to say Pitters is 90% back to his old self.
He’d never been so sick, and We’ve had a bad case of Stasis with him a year or so back. The only thing still a bit off are his poops, just unformed, though I am seeing improvements each day.
I really think in most cases like this force feeding and keeping the bunny hydrated are SO important. I know without these he would not have made it.
One thing that I have questions about is the urine leaking. It was one of the first signs (along with no poops) that something was wrong and now that he is feeling better it has stopped. An ideas on what causes this leaking? pain, just not feeling good?
We’ve concluded this episode with Pitters is most likely a mixture of stress, poor diet with his pasturella. The reason I say poor diet is he is SPOILED and get’s a lot of carrots and crasins from us, and well over Xmas from every visitor we had as well. Stress could be anything but I think shedding and the visitors for holidays and such played a part.
I am so happy to have him feeling better and acting like his goofy self, today he’s been in front of the fridge begging… no more carrots though, just leafy greens for this little guy!
