Thanks for all your prayers and concerns. I think she might be pulling through this as hasn't flopped over in two hours and is actually eating!!! I got her to eat a candied pinapple. Then we got critical care goup down her too. After long tummy rubs she hopped out of my arms and ran around. She came back and took a piece of hay with applesauce on it. She has not yet pooped, but she has eaten nearly half of her pellets for the evening and has eaten a couple pieces of her greens. I hope this is all good. I am going to be sleeping with her tonight. Yes, that means she normally sleeps alone. Thanks and sorry for scaring you all.

don't give her too much sugar or it will make things worse but I'm glad that she is eating
make sure that you are also getting fluids into her

let us know.....

 

[Bo B Bunny]

YES! thank you for keeping us updated and I am definitely glad to hear she's eating a bit.

Push the hay! that's the best thing for them - that and fluids when they have gas or gut issues.

How is Felice?

Like BBB said,
hay and fluids
hay and fluids
some more hay and fluids.

I'm not a big fan of your vet for recommending mineral oil as a treatment for stasis--old school and not exactly right. Is this known to be a good vet? If not, please try another.

 

[Maureen Las]

Mineral oil is old school and ...............
it is also very very dangerous to give as it is easy for the rabbit to aspirate it and develop aspiration pneumonia.

 

[Bo B Bunny]

yeah, mineral oil isn't something I would even consider for a bunny for this sort of thing.
