can anyone help?
My very fluffy lionhead rabbit was spayed two weeks ago.

After the surgery she was not willing to eat much, so we fed her critical care to avoid any GI issues. We would see things would go worse in terms of eating, more GI stasis signs appearing - we took action by doing regular GI stasis treatment stuff. Not long ago she was getting better. From yesterday the amount of poops lessened again. She only poops like once or twice and mostly in the evening. In the afternoon, she sometimes tries to poop but nothing comes out.

We give her subq fluids for rehydration, mineral oil/cat paste to get the hair out (her poop is kind of connected with hair, only not too much. the poops are very varied in terms of shape).

We force feed critical care, pineapple juice, mashed pumpkin. She still does not want to eat normally, it's been two weeks. She sometimes chews on basil (she loves it), eats a little bit of hay, especially when she wants to poop, also eats a bit of compressed food. But without our force feeding, she'd starve.

She does not show any signs of pain and acts pretty curious. Jumps and walks around when we let her out, not too actively, but not passively either. We give her metoclopramide to help her with gut motility but I don't think it really always works? Doesn't seem like there's gas buildup, we've given her symethicone. The belly is soft before force feeding.

After she gets her critical care etc, it fills up a bit but the rabbit isn't in pain when you press her belly or massage it. At the very end (nearer the anus) it's very emptyish after eating.
We've taken her to the vet several times, the vet advises the same treatment as we're doing already, doesn't feel up anything like an obstruction or something weird. I live in a small country that has two rabbit vets in my city (it's the capital city!).
If anything, there isn't as much they could do as somewhere like the US. Have you had any weird illnesses after spaying your rabbits?
Also did any rabbit experience scar tissue in guts/stomach after surgery? What could it be?
I need help because I don't know what to do anymore, really. The vet can't do much either. She's been with these GI stasis symptoms for two weeks and with the treatment it does not stop.

>>2122135
My only assumption is that it is something else besides that and the symptoms are for another illness.

You have to take it to a vet that will do a more thorogh search because half the time ifor it isn't the basic thing it is something more serious and the more you wait around the shorter you might not be able to save them.

That's what I've seen most often happen.

This is Kaibo, we adopted him a few weeks ago. He used to be abused by his last owner but over the weeks he's got his childlike naughtiness back.

Also, he was not neutered, so he fucked the shit out of a turtle toy once he got used to the house.

Why is that bunny an asshole?

When I was very young we had bunnies in the backyard, and the momma bunny would growl at my mom if my mom didn't give her lettuce.

(inb4 lettuce is terrible for bunnies, it was back when our US drug laws pertaining to plants seemed to make any sort of sense whatsoever and there was no internet.)

>>2124405
Nice cat statue. Doesn't spook him, does it?
>>
>>2127975

UPDATE

on the last observation, vet said it does not seem like GI stasis at all. we noticed as well that the issue is with pooping itself - she eats a lot after she poops. but she has problems pooping, she sits for a very long to poop them out. the poops now are a bit bigger than normal. also we gave her no-spa once and it almost instantly made her poop but the next day it didn't really work so I guess it was a coincidence. Is it something with her rectum? The poop passes under some circumstances, but f.e. yesterday I've seen her poop in huge discomfort. Today she pooped w/o pain but still takes long. It's been 3 weeks now after spaying and this last 3 weeks. Hope it's not something serious ; n ; I'm fatigued bc of constant care
