Hi, my name is Emily. My bunny is four years old, she's a netherland dwarf. The past couple days I had noticed she would occasionally stumble and fall down, which worried me. She didn't seem to be in pain so I vouched to keep her off her legs and take her to the vet if the limping got worse.
Please please please please don't judge me or consider me a bad owner. I love my bunny more than anything in the entire world. This is the closest bond I have ever had with a pet and I would do anything for her.
I was petting her today and to my horror I noticed that on the back of both of her hind legs the fur and skin is eroded to the bone. I do not know how I didn't see this. I assume it's from her sitting in her pee but I did not know this could ever happen. I keep her clean and give her fresh bedding 3 times a week.
I woke my dad up because I was so scared, and it's 12:50 right now so we can't take her to the vet. I don't think I'm going to be able to sleep tonight because I can't believe that happened to her. I don't know how she's still eating or sleeping.
I'm posting here because it feels better than doing nothing right now.
