He's a 2.5 year old male lionhead. Last night we moved the rabbits to my place because Massimo's place is getting sprayed/dusted for bugs. They both seemed fine. Running around and eating, drinking and pooping normally. I heard them running around all night to.
This morning when I woke up to feed them, Nero was in a corner of the cage pressed into it as much as he could. When I went to feed them, Lupa came running as usual but Nero stayed in the corner, which is very unusual for him. I even got a separate bowl to put some veggies right beside him but he didn't touch them. I gave him a little bit of a papaya treat to see if he'd eat it and he did. Eventually he did eat a few pieces of lettuce.
He's still in the corner of the cage but every now and then moves to another corner. He let me pick him up which is also unusual but then started struggling which is very normal. I don't know how much water he's had or how much he's pooped in the last few hours. It looks like theres a decent amount in the litter box, too much to be made by just Lupa.
We were thinking it could just be nerves and/or stress from moving to a new environment and also hearing my dogs barking. He's never heard the dogs so he might be scared?
Does it sound like nerves/stress to you guys or something more serious?
