Pepper (shown in the pic) had his teeth filed down this morning under an anaesthetic (gas) as over the past month or so, he has been losing weight. He has now become very thin and needs to fatten up or else he may have to be put down :'(. He will eat grass, dandelions, and fennel (slowly) and will take water from a syringe. Does anyone know anything that has a high energy content that won't be too difficult for him to eat? I've tried grated carrot and apple with no success and I am putting a probiotic powder on his grass and fennel.
Also - I don't know whether to keep him in at night or not. He likes the comfort of his outdoor hutch far more than a box, but I don't know whether he will use a lot of energy to keep himself warm. Any suggestions? (The temperature is only going down to 6° celcius at night).
Thanks.
