        Okay..for future reference..she was fed about 10:30 last night. It’s current’s 11:08 am.

         

        Ugh..I’m so worried. I woke up this morning to see Sunny in her litter pan. As far as fruits/veggies go, she ate her romaine leafs but non of the bits of apples I gave her. She has peed. I went back to bed for a while, to see her still not have moved (unless she moved and went back) out of the pan. I’m so worried..ik buns are supposed to be pooping alot. My mom said she wont have the money to go to the vet until tomorrow. PLEASE do not get on me about poor care for my pets, ik this is bad and don’t need it from anyone else.

        Sunny hasn’t had pellets in a while, only because we’ve been a bit down on the money issue. We WERE going to the grocery store about a week ago to get her some pellets (although at the grocery store they’re a bit fattening) but they were out. What could be the issue? She’s eaten but not pooped..she’s going to the vet tomorrow..I’m just so worried :/

            Thank you. She’s been running around like she normally does..but it doesn’t seem like she’s touched her water. She did eat her romain leafs though.

              Has she been eating her hay? That is the most important thing in keeping their digestive system going, so if she isn’t eating any hay that would be the most concerning thing. I know that bunnies that are having stasis (where food is getting blocked up in their stomach) can often act pretty alert and normal for awhile, but then they start to get lethargic and bloated, which is very bad and means they need to go the vet ASAP. If you have noticed she is acting different and isn’t eating as much, I would recommend the vet as soon as you can because the earlier you catch stasis, the easier it is to treat, and the cheaper it is to treat.

                I’m glad you’re taking her to the vet tomorrow. Just keep track of how she is, and maybe bring in a little sample of her poo to the vet with you in case she needs to run a test on it.

                Wash the lettuce really thoroughly and leave it wet, so she’ll get water from it if she isn’t noticeably drinking.
                I’m wondering if it may be a tooth problem, but there’s no way to know without the vet’s input.

                Some rabbits can be fine without pellets as long as they have good, unlimited hay like Timothy, and fresh greens. Greens are more important than fruits, which are more fattening.

                  I gave her some carrot, ik those are for treats, but they also have some fiber in them. Aaand…
                   
                  IDK what it was, the carrot or the 2nd passage, but she pooped, about 8 times. Not where I’d want it to be..but she’s making progress. Still gonna go to the vet tomorrow.
