Dolly and Spot post op day 2

So, Spot hasn't been doing fab today! She hasn't eaten by herself, and she hasn't pooped at all since yesterday! This is a medical emergency in rabbits, their gut needs to run continuously, if it stops it can be fatal! I tried syringe feeding her some critical care and I gave her some metoclopramide to stimulate her gut, but when that didn't get her going I rushed her to the vet! She was there all afternoon receiving I.V. fluids, syringe feeding every hour and gut stimulating drugs! She's home now, and still not eating, we've been syringing her food, we will have to get up through the night too!
