Baci was just at the vet about 3 weeks ago. This will be the 3rd time he's having issues with his molars. This weekend he would "latch" on to us, following us all over the house, wanting to run and play.I don'teven think he slept during the day like he normally does. That's when I get nervous, every time he's so loving, I get paranoid that something is up. I noticed he didn'teat alot of greens but he was filling up the litter box. He hasn't touched any food today at all, however he's still pooping alot andstill very playful. He's humping our slippers like crazy. (He's not neutered) I did hearsome grinding andhe will take a craisin but Inoticedit took awhile for him tochew it. Thisled me to b/l it'shis molars and notstatis. I'm mixing up a batch of CC and pedialyte for him. (I was able to get the apple/banana mix from Lambert so hopefully he'll like it better than the original flavor.)
Unfortunately his regular vet will not be in until Friday and I must have called at least 6 vets who will see rabbits but not with molar issues. I finally found onean hour away who'll see me tomorrow afternoon. Not thrilled with the travel time, he doesn't like car rides. But I think I'll be more stressed if I have to wait till Friday.
My question is~ should I see if their is an option to extract the molar which is giving him problems. I'd hate to see him go thru this every month. Also how to prevent this from happening in the future? His diet consist of Oxbow pelletsand hay but he refuses to touchthe haysince his statis back in Sept. I've tried taken his pellets away but he's so stubborn.I've even got some from Bunny Bale. He normally eats a good serving of baby lettuce. Is that enough to help grind down his teeth?
