Poor Captain.
He was at the vet's 2 days ago for a check up on his eye as he had a bit of conjunctivitis. He was fine and had been eating and pooping as normal. Took him home from the vet and gave him his supper. He tucked into his grass and I was watching him munch away. I heard a crunching noise like a tooth snapping, Captain looked alarmed and scuttled into his hay. He didn't touch any more food. I checked on him yesterday and he had not touched any of his veg again. I've checked his front teeth and they look ok. COuld he have chipped a molar and it is rubbing on his cheek?
However, he did tuck into his dried food last night. He showed no interest whatsover in his veggy supper last night, so I pureed some greens and syringe fed him and gave him a dose of pro-biotic. This mornng, I see that he has nibbled at his brocoli but when I picked him up, he had a really poopy bottom. Almost impacted. I squeezed him gently and got one normal poop out. He has never been impacted before, he is 1 year 6 months. He looks pretty miserable too.
He has another appt at the vet tonight. Any ideas? How can they go from absolutely fine to the complete opposite?
