Hello again! I apologize if this was posted in the wrong forum and/or section.
We believe one of our rabbits may have gas in her stomach. She is sitting awkwardly and barely shows any interest in the food we tried to give her. We looked up her symptoms and think that she may have gas from all the lettuce and sweet potatoes we have been feeding her. Could anyone please tell us how to treat this problem without accidentally harming her?
We heard that massaging the bunny may help, but another site advised against it. Someone gave her a massage anyway, and the bunny moved to the bedding box to possibly poop. Another site suggested to give the bunny a simethicone product orally such as Infant’s Phazyme or Infant’s Mylicon. Is this fine to give to the rabbit? If not, what medicine do you suggest? We appreciate all help and are praying that our rabbit will be fine.
