Here is a discussion we had last week on stasis
http://www.rabbitsonline.net/view_topic.php?id=50040&forum_id=16
it is worth it to at least scroll down and read what other members do to take care of it
this is a problems that if caught early can be remedied by the owner
All of us do it a bit different
I,too, use fresh pineapple juice and syringe maybe 5 cc 2 times per day. It needs to be squeezed from a whole pineapple as Randy stated.
Fresh wet freens was already mentioned but will usually tempt a rabbit to eat
If the rabbit won't eatI syringe baby electrolyte drink ( pedialyte here ) to the rabbit usually as much as he will take per syringe. throughtout the day. Always make sure that the rabbit is swallowing when you syringe fluids. Don't turn the bunny upside down in a towel to syringe as he could choke or aspirate the fluids into the lungs
I usually get down on the floor and place the syringe in the side of the bunny's mouth behind the teeth and gently push in small amounts . my rabbits like both pineapple juice and/ also pedialyte.
Encourage the bunny to move about but first give simethicone . There are varous tradenames depending on location which is the Infrmary Mod discussion link .
I usually give 1 cc of liquid infant drop simethicone ( Mylicon orGasX here) and then wait an hour or so before I repeat the same dosage. if the bun is not showing improvement .
you can repeat about 3 times within a several hour period if the bun is still quiet and not acting normal.
you can massage the tiummy gently and applly heat ( describedin the link) if the bunny looks in pain. If you have metacam for pain this can aso be administered as long as the rabbit has already been given a lot of fluids. prior to the metacam dosage. metacam is hard on the kidneys so the bun should be well hydrated.
I usually don't give the pure pumpkin right away but since your rabbit has not eaten for 24 hours you might want to try that. The pumpkin must not have any sugar or seasoning in in it. Try about 5 cc at a time . One of my rabbits will eat pumpkin out of a bowl.
At this point the fluids is more important than the food and if he has gas and /or hair is his gut and the above helps dispelit your bun should be eating on his own soon
if you can get a probiotic like benebac or it has helped my buns to get a dose of that although I dont know why. it will reestablih the good bacteria in the gut . Certain products sold for horses in farm stores can also be used instead of benebac as they are basically the same. Probios is an example of that .
Please lt us know how your bunny is doing but remember that fluids is most important right now...
if your bun shows no improvement then he needs to see a vet ...
