         Barney just isn’t right today. I gave him his pellets last night and he didnt touch them all night which is SO unusual for him … he’s bouncing around like normal but i even gave him a carrot and he didnt fancy that either. He was drinking plenty this morning, i’ve just cleaned his litter tray so i’ll be able to see for sure that he’s pooing – he has just done a wee but no poo so far.

        What is wrong with my little guy? x

          Definitely keep an eye on him. Do you have any Critical Care? You can syringe feed some of that, or even crushed up pellets mixed with water to make a paste.

          If he hasn’t eaten in 24 hours, I would call the vet. It could be that his teeth are bothering him, gas, or stasis.

            I dont have any critical care, I was freaking out because his teeth were only checked last week and they were fine! So i was panicking it was GI stasis!!
            Since i posted he has done some poos and had some salad leaves … so maybe he’s just feeling a bit off colour today? Thanks for the reply!

              How is Barney doing btw? I was curious because of the condition he was in when you first got him. Is he looking better? filling out more?

                He’s quite a lot better, far more bold than he was! I took him to the vets last week for a check up, he is still slightly underweight but definitely a lot heavier than when i first got him! I’m rubbish at putting photos on here for some reason, i used to know how to do it! So here is a little blog i started up about Barney and my old bun Biscuit, hopefully Barney will have a wife this summer!

                  Anna, I know Thane has done this once or twice on me, turned out he was just having bad days. Hoping he feels better, but just keep a good watch on him. I’m sure you know that already. Can you tempt him with some things he likes? He’s gorgeous btw.

                    Ah it makes me feel better that Thane has done it too! He’s just sooo not himself, he’s had a few munches of carrot which he’d usually wolf down!! Hopefully he’ll be back to normal this evening, poor little guy! Awww thanks, as is Thane!

                        He is! Apart from today when he’s got a messy bum, i’m worried he’s not well!
