I recently moved homes, and in the move my rabbit's little wooden 'house' was broken. I've ordered a new one, but unbeknownst to me, my husband put a wine box in her cage yesterday evening. It is corrugated cardboard, totally covered with green ink.
I came to see her this morning and it looks like she has eaten much of the box...there are shreddings but not nearly enough to explain the gaping holes in the box. I also noticed she did not eat her pellets, which are usually gone by now. I was able to feed her two barley treats, but whenever I try and feed her hay she takes it, snapped it in half and then spits it out. She is drinking water.
She is pooping, but the poops are weirdly formed and there aren't very many. She is not acting as if she is in pain.
Could she have gotten a blockage from all the cardboard? She may have eaten part of a shipping label as well : ( If so, can this be fixed with plenty of hay and water? I am going to the pet store to see if some brand new hay will tempt her to eat...
