Ok *sighs in partial relief* That's good then. I think it's probably just a colicky thing, she should get over it, but as you say, you can never be too careful. Rabbits can be fussy .. (I'm just imagining what happened to Pasque and Trix, so kind of getting stressed out)

Ah, yea. I probably have the outdated one .. (and I'm not sure where it is at this moment) I thought I knew, but I'm simply marvelous at misplacing things. *sigh*

Hmm .. it sounds a little different than what Tammo had .. though he did sit hunched over and wasn't very responsive. Thankfully, he got better after several days, though I was nervous, because he is a little older nowadays. GI Stasis .. oh golly, I hope not. :/ Well, hay is probably good for her, and when Tammo was getting back to eating, I fed him plain yogurt with live cultures. The cultures are supposed to help digestion .. that was what our breeder told me .. he's very good with rabbits. And it did seem to help.

I doubt this is it, but does she have any dental issues? I've heard that can cause things like chewing without food, hanging around the food, but not eating. Though it does sound like a digestive problem, I would make sure she keeps drinking until you can talk to you 4H leader .. (cause I'm not a vet, in any way. Though I do know a few tricks that sometimes help) Probably spending time with her helps as well, Tammo seemed more comfortable when I held him. :)

Well, actually, in a way, yes. My two oldest boys have both developed issues that sound similar (though of course, not on the same animal) One of them had a stroke last summer .. I was very worried and honestly thought he would die, but amazingly, he hasn't. He's in no pain, but his head is now eternally cocked to the side :( However, he goes about playing and eating like he is fine, so for the moment, all seems well. (and he's probably three years, going on four) As for the other, I just noticed this yesterday. He seems to have some abnormal growth on his stomach, and all I can surmise is cancer. I'm watching him, as of yet he acts like nothing is the matter .. but we'll see. I'd continue to treat him as always, and of course, take out any toy he might hurt himself on. Just sort of watch him for improvement or if he gets worse. (Which I hope he doesn't) But that's really all I can do for my boys at this point.

Oh yes .. he's odd in coloring, temperament, and habits. He's a chinchilla dutch, with a white patch that covers his left leg (I think) and shoulder. And a totally white belly .. he's not show quality. He's just my goofy little mischievous feed sack. (why'd you think I named the dear 'Trubbs' :P ) I should post a picture. Yea, most rabbits do (awww .. that's so cute) really, with Trubbs I think it's mostly attitude. He wants his breakfast the same time every single morning .. even Saturday.

That's good .. I was actually home alone for a few minutes tonight too .. my mom had taken my brother to lego practice and dad hadn't got home yet. But anyways .. yea, it's never fun at all. Especially when a pet is sick :(

You're welcome .. I wish I could have got here sooner .. maybe we could have gotten in chat on HR (as it is, I've got to go to bed soon)

Yea, I would do that :) Because while I can heal a pet's outer injuries pretty well .. my record at saving them from internal problems is about zero, I'm afraid. So yea. I really, really hope this just sort of works itself out for Lilly. :3

If I was I'd have probably come over XD but yea. You're on Christmas break :D awesome .. I will be next week .. oh wait .. I just realized that means I am! :P

True .. *wonders how much of the surprise I can get done tonight*

Awww .. Thankies :D Same here .. but over Christmas break I should get something done. ;)

I hope so ^^ I'll keep praying about it, since being so far away .. that's about all I can do besides give advice :) Hope I was helpful in some manner XD

Oh, I'd like to see her ^^ after all, she is the queen of Southsward. (jkjk) (and I should post this super adorable pic I have of Tammo when he was a baby ..)
