Question
My rabbit is 2 years old and has recently lost his best friend Jazz. Jazz is my
other rabbit, he died after recovering from flystrike. My rabbit Coco 4 weeks
later started not eating his food and falling over. I took him to the vets and
after a couple of visits she said he had a pastasite living in his head.
Unfortunatly i had to go on holiday the next day so Coco had to be treated at
the vets. When i returned from my holiday my rabbit was fine... (back ground
imfo)
My rabbit has started eating more at night than during the day... Why? he
never did this before...
Thanks

Answer
hello ariannah

sorry for your loss of your other bunny :-(

Im glad that you other bunny is back to normal. maybe he was fed this time when at the vets and got into a routine, this is nothing to worry about as i have a female bunny and she now eats early evening instead of mid day, sometimes it is becasue the weather is hot and sometimes it is just because she preferes to eat at this time. as long as your bunny is eating then eating late is no problem.

hope this helps
