We are fostering a spayed Lionhead, I think she is about 5 months old now. She has been a crazy gal, keeping us on our toes! We have given her all sorts of toys, newspaper, fresh hay, pellets, and some daily greens. She has a huge cage and gets out once a day, five days a week or more for a long exercise session. Fast forward to today. She has tore her cage completely to shreds. Dug up her litter box, ripped paper, and was sitting in the middle of it, happy as a lark. I noticed all the pellets were out of her dish, which is a corner ceramic dish I purchased from a pet store in the small animal section, and very similar to the dish she used while waiting at our vet's office to be adopted. I picked up the dish and looked in horror as I noticed large chunks were missing from the corner! She was in a big binkie fit, as if to show how proud she was! :nono We removed her and put her in an exercise pen. I called the vet. I have located two huge pieces, several small shards, but I'm worried that she might have ingested some very tiny pieces. She's very tiny herself. The very savvy rabbit vet says to watch for blood in her poo or gi stasis signs. No rabbit savvy vets on call tonight for our practice, so I am quite nervous. Never had an experience with our bunnies like this. How do I check for blood in her poo? Anything we can do to help that stuff pass quickly?
