Hi all,
I just brought my rabbit, Nibbler, home yesterday. He's amazingly chilled, prancing around the lounge like he owns it, and he's comfortable enough with us to come over and demand pats very frequently, the snugglebug So, I wouldn't say he's extremely stressed, or anything.
But he hasn't pooped, as far as I can tell. I haven't caught him drinking either. I didn't know if he was used to a heavy bowl or a sipper for water, so he has both available, but it doesn't look like he's had any. He has nibbled at some hay, pellets, spinach, and a piece of carrot so far.
Is this something to expect from a rabbit moving to a strange new place, or is this seriously scary? Is there a way I can get him to drink? The previous owner did give me his med folder, and his regular vet is not far from me, so I can get him there if this is dangerous. Any help here would be much appreciated
