Help, help & help! I don't know how much of this is health, and how much of this is behavioral, but I thought I'd ask. So, a brief bit of history:
Ripley is a nearly 2 year old Holland lop buck. He was an outdoor bunny until late fall/earlier winter since when he's been inside in a big xpen. 5 weeks ago he was neutered, no complecations or anything. Pre-surgical bloodwork was run and they didn't mention seeing anything amiss. Everything went very well, he healed up quickly and I haven't seen anything obviously due to that come about.
But, 2 weeks ago Saturday, I noticed a lack of his pooping, no appetite, and very lethargic. I hurried him to the vet, who prescribed him Metaclopramide-1 mL every 8 hours for 5 days along with a Vitamin B injection and sub-q's. Ripley quickly improved but ever since then, he's been very pu/pd (drinking and peeing alot). I'm wondeirng if it's caused by the medication he was on and has been off of for a week? Also, I don't know if it is due to this or just bahavioral, but he's been having mega pee accidents which he has never ever had. Like at least probably 4 in the last week or so. It just seems so unlike him; any ideas?? Thank you all a bunch!
