too)? i have an american fuzzy lop and he always seems to have problems with ileus or something that might lead to ileus. unfortunately, i am not from the states (i got him as a gift from my pal in usa) and the vets here don't have a clue about rabbits. i keep his cage super clean, i clean it with baby wipes. he also has a litterbox and i clean it immeadiately when i see he has produced stool. i feed him pellets of Genesis brand and also some parsley and apple every day. he can eat hay whenever he wants to but i've noticed he doesn't do it often. why is that. is that causing the problem with his stomach and sth that might eb ileus related. the thing is, his stool is not soft. a lot of times i can see he struggles as if he had cramps. i can see this causes him pain. i have a syrup to speed up his metabolism but he can get addicted to it. i dont want to use it often. so i just give him a piece of apple instead.

what can i do about it? how do i make him eat more hay and stop the pain.
i do groom him but it doesnt stop it

I'm not really sure, Do you groom him? He could have a hairball. Rabbits aren't able to throw them up like cats do.
