My rabbit has been passing soft + smaller feces than normal, and I’ve heard gurgling sounds from his tummy. I suspected gas, so I cut down his diet to just hay and water now. His tummy feels a little bloated. However he’s always been eating like normal and pooping, just smaller poops and irregular poops (check attached). So far I haven’t heard any more gurgling sounds and will try to get him to the vet ASAP. I’m giving him massages to relieve gas pain, but for now is there anything else I can do?

I would give simethicone too (infant gas drops, availably at every pharmacy), at least 20mg per serving (more doesn't hurt), 3 times a day. It helps to pass the gas.
