concerned about Jazz

[b]I am a bit concerned about Jazz he is laying on his side quite a bit over the last couple of hours. He is eating and drinking fine but this isn't like him

Could he have hurt himself in any way?

I wouldnt worry too much if he is eating and drinking, but would keep an eye on him.

How does he seem in himself??

[b]I dont think he has hurt himself although he has launched himself at the dest a couple of times since I moved the furniture and missed so it' posible when I pick him up he wrigles about like normal Fizz is just sat next to him I hate it when they lay like this reminds me of when Jake passed away he was laid started twitching I picked him up and he passed away in my arms

Oh hun thats so awful.

There is no reason to think that the same will happen (although I know thats easy for me to say).

How long has he been like it?

[b]Just a couple of hours I have just given them a handfull of hay from the bail and he is sat up munching that I will keep an eye on him probably nip down a couple of times in the nite as well. I think when Jake went it was a total one off he passed away the same day one of the cats did and 2 days later Ann was rushed into hospital with Campala Bacta and she was very ill for 10 days

If he is sat up eating I think thats a really good thing.

Keep me updated. x x

[b]will do thanks for your help

Listlessness can indicate a few things, but not nec. anything serious and it's good that he's still eating I would do a vets trip to be sure, or perhaps call them and see what they say. The thing is that as buns hide illness so well, to be displaying anything can mean that something is more serious than it appears, and I wouldn't take the risk, having not heeded the gravity of this myself before. When they are well and bouncing around, it's easy to forget that they are really quite fragile.

Vibes for Jazz, I hope it's just an off day.

How is he today?

If your gut instinct is that something is wrong, I would trust your instinct as it is rarely wrong and better to be safe than sorry. Hope he is better soon.

How is he doing? x

[b]Well Jazz is back to his old self again I got up at 3 this morning to check on him he was fine he has been running around all day my daughter and Ann kept checking on him. When I got in I found a cheeky face sat looking at me from my desk and papers that used to live on the desk were covering the floor right from the door. I shall still keep an eye on him but he seems fine now think I am going to have to rearange the furniture again many thanks for all the advise

What a relief. So glad he is back to his old self! Way to go Jazz

Phew - Im so glad he is okay.

bless him. Glad he is back to his cheeky self!

Is gas a poss? I know that my lop has suffered from this very mildly and she was laying stretched out,but getting up as though she couldn't get comfy... .tum.my rubs and sorted her out...

I am so pleased for you love and him. I tend to use whether they are eating or not as a yard stick where illness is concerned.

I am very happy for you.

Luna does that sometimes, didn't think of gas, may have to try the tummy rubs then! thanks

I'm really glad he's ok

That is great news, they do worry us sometimes don't they?
