Harvey seems a bit off today. He was a little lazy getting up, but ate breakfast fine and his litter box was fine. I took him out for some exercise and he seemed his normal self. The rest of the day he has been laying down relaxed (not a pain position or DBF). I checked his litter box, there were only a few poos that were lighter in color, and two poos strung together by hair. I should say though I was not expecting a ton in the litter box since I cleaned it out at 12:00. I was alarmed by the poo strung together so I gave him an extra good brushing. He is shedding a little bit but not a ton. I gave him some pellets, which he ate a bit of and he is eating hay. I put in fresh hay as well (though I always do) to encourage him to eat. I always wash his veggies before feeding so I know he is get liquids.
I also should add that temps are crazy here in NE! It was cold cold last night with frost warnings, and then today it got to mid 70's. So this may be throwing him off a bit, he is an outdoor bunny. Granted I made sure he was more than cozzy last night, and cool today.
I do not want his gut to slow down! I have metacam (which I believe is pain, so I don't think he needs that) and metoclopram (which I believe is used to jump start a gut) left over from the vet from Tinsel this July. I also have plenty of critical care. My vet is closed so I can't call and I don't think this at the point where I have to go to the emergency vet. I am more than willing to go out and get something for Harvey if someone can suggest something.
I know I may be freaking out over one peice, but I lost a bunny this July to Gi Stasis, and I can not have another death *shudders*. I also have to go to school tomorrow so I won't be home to watch him =[
Should I feed him his regular diet tonight- 1/4 cup of Timothy complete pellets and 1 cup of dark green veggies or should I feed critical care instead? Should I go out an get canned pumpkin or baby food (if so what exactly should I get and how much should I feed to a 7 pound bunny).
Please Please any suggestions! No need to beat around the bush with me! If you think what I'm doing is fine, and I'm completely over reacting feel free to tell me. If you think he needs to go to vet you can tell me that as well. I just want Harvey healthy!! thank you
