Thursday night my bunny wouldn't eat, lying around, etc. All the normal signs of gas or potential onset of stasis. I had some metacam on hand, gave him that and simethicone and water. After an hour, I also had some metaclopromide on hand that I gave him. I was reluctant at first to give him this as I know if he's blocked this would have been bad. Well, he did ok and after a couple more hours and diligence of giving him fluids, he finally started eating. Yesterday he seemed normal. Eating, drinking, etc. so I didn't give him anything else. This morning though he hadn't pooped near his normal amount, wouldn't eat much veggies (he's normally a gobbler), and I got worried again. After about and hour, he ate some veggies and has just now finished some pellets. I had some metacam left (not much) and no metroclopromide. I went ahead just gave him a dose of metacam and some simethicone and water because he's just not his normal self. He's usually a big hay eater and gobbles his veggies right away....he hasn't been the gobbler that he usually is. I'm thinking calling the vet and taking him in just in case but, not sure since he is eating some now. I'm just worried that it might stress him too much to where he takes a downward spiral but, then again, I'm now out of medication and it's a holiday weekend! Thinking I should take him or at least try to get more meds if they don't have any appts....thoughts?
