Yesterday I had my studio apartment treated for mold, so clearly my animals and I cleared out for close to 24 hrs. Within those 24 hours I had kept Wrangler at the hay store where my boyfriend works, then he was kept overnight at my boyfriend's house until this morning. I called the mold treatment guy and he gave me the okay that it was alright to re-enter the apartment. Well Wrangler has been a bit lethargic today and seemed like he was having another episode of GI Stasis (which he had been quite ill about 3 weeks ago). Thankfully I still have some Metoclopramide still leftover from the last time he was sick. I am hoping and praying that he isn't going to be sick on a monthly basis now. He used to never get sick. I don't understand why he would get sick when he gets fed top quality feed and hay (Oxbow) AND he's not confined to a cage. It just worries me. He seems to be okay at the moment, he's finally eating his fresh hay that he hasn't touched all day. I had cleaned his cage and pen when we first got home and usually he gets excited when I clean his house, but today, he could have cared less. I am wondering if he was just stressed out from all the moving around (he also made a trip out of town with me for Christmas and we got back a week ago). *Sigh* I hope he'll be alright.
BTW does anyone else keep Metoclopramide on hand at all times? Can your vet prescribe it even if your bun isn't sick? Since it seems to do the job to get things moving again, I would think that it would be necessary to have it always on hand?
