Hi, posting these things I also posted in the side chat bar so that you can read them later:

[Ã] [o] tonyshuman: Hi Sabrina, how's the patient?
4 Dec 09, 02:49 AM
[Ã] [o] tonyshuman: I see she was spayed just a few hours ago--it's normal for them to not want to eat after that
4 Dec 09, 02:50 AM
[Ã] [o] tonyshuman: it's most important for her to have some liquid, like waterr, or pedialyte if you can get it
4 Dec 09, 02:50 AM
[Ã] [o] tonyshuman: I'd try to get 5-10mL of liquid into her, and then more Metacam if she hasn't had her dose for the day yet
4 Dec 09, 02:51 AM
[Ã] [o] tonyshuman: also if you have it, a dose of simethicone can help--it helped us when Benjamin didn't want to eat after his neuter.

[Ã] [o] tonyshuman: gentle tummy massages and heat can also help, like LOWAPB said.

[Ã] [o] tonyshuman: it's normal for bunnies to not want to eat immediately following surgery, especially spays--so don't worry if she's not eating as long as she's pooping, active, drinking, and acting normally
4 Dec 09, 02:53 AM
[Ã] [o] tonyshuman: There are things you can do to try to get her to eat, like what we've mentioned, but it's not a thing to panic about yet
4 Dec 09, 02:55 AM
[Ã] [o] tonyshuman: the stress of the whole experience and going under/coming out of anesthesia can be a bit stressful for them
4 Dec 09, 02:56 AM
[Ã] [o] tonyshuman: I think as long as you've seen her eat a little (like you have), seen a few poops, and are sure she's got some fluid in her along with the proper pain meds that she should have, I wouldn't worry about her tonight
Good luck and please keep us updatred.
