Sabrina has not gone to the bathroom since about 5 pm (it is 11 pm now). She also has not had anything to eat except for treats which I have given her about 4 since I just want to get something in her belly. She has not had anything to drink which is not unusual at this point in the night because she usually has a big drink at around 11:30 or so.
I have tried giving her Simethicone but she refuses to let me get it in her. I will try again when I am done typing this. She usually goes nuts over pumpkin but tonight she lost interest after about 2 licks. I have tried getting her up to move a bit but all she wants to do is sit in her hidey box or on her shelf. Her stomach was still soft at about 9:30 but is a bit more firm now.
I have called the emergency vet near me and they do not have anyone with rabbit experience but they are willing to take a look at her. Unless she needs sub-q's though I think that I would be better treating her at home. Can someone please give me any advice. I am going to put her in a burrito and try to get some simethicone in her and then try and force her to go for a run in the hallway.
She is my baby and I can't stand to see her sick please please help me. Either message me back or if you want to telephone/text/email/skype/msn/facebook to help me please send me a PM and I will give you my number/email address
Thank you so much in advance
