Hello!
My 3 month old baby Perdita prolapsed on Saturday night- an expensive emergency trip to the vet luckily fixed the issue. After describing her set up and feeding to the vet, she said she didn’t believe husbandry was the cause of the prolapse. She gave me the usual meds for worms/parasites just in case that was the issue. She also said that luckily Perdita did not need stitches on her vent.
However, it is now Wednesday and Perdy hasn’t pooped yet. No urea, nothing. Today I also couldn’t get her to eat. I gave her a warm bath, belly massage and had her drink water.
Is it normal for them to be a little off after a prolapse like that, or should I be on the vet with the phone tomorrow? I’ll likely call anyway, but just wonder what your opinions are on the topic.
