thank you. Well good news is that SKYE recovered the same day. She’s on selective recovery plus which she drink from a small dish. She loves it. Can this harm her if she has it a couple of times a week? She’s eating hay and I cut back in green because that’s possibly cause of excess gas in the...
Hello folks,
I took my rabbit swiftly to the vet this morning when she appeared very lethargic. She has excess gas it turns out and the vet gave me Emeprid to give her every 6 hours. They also gave her an injection to get her gut moving. But she was eating before I took her to the vet and she is...
I have a rabbit who lost her sister two year ago I have had her four years and always feel guilty she is alone. I had a lionhead who died earlier this year who was caged separately to her. I am keen on a smaller rabbit breed like the Dwarf and wondered if I can introduce a babey Dwarf to her...
Hi Every one.
I have a four year old rabbit. She’s an indoor pet who does not mind being picked up to stroke each day. I also put my head in her cage each night and she comes forward to lick my forehead. Now whilst this is really nice I wondered is this affection or salt craving? I have put a...
Thank you for your reply. I have reduced the critical to once a day and she is eating Hay and less pellets. I give her less greens now only a handful twice a day.
Very true I can relate to your posting well. I lost Jasper 3 months ago and miss him terribly but I always knew he was on borrowed time at 10 years. The vet bills etc were irrelevant. He brought much happiness., your correct it’s the character left in your thoughts. I have his ashes in his cask...
Hi All.
I hope you are well. Last week my rabbit was off her food and was in despair knowing the need to keep a rabbits gut working. Anyway I tried her on critical care powder using a spoon for her to take it. She took to having it off the spoon and I gave her hand an egg cup full every hour and...
Hi just letting you all know she’s eating again and the critical care helped so she eating her greens just making sure her guts kept going. Thanks again
Thank you we have that at home and are giving her this. I lost a rabbit 2 year ago and despite visits to the vet we had to have her put to sleep. I don’t want to give up on this one but equally don’t want to see her have seizures like my other.
Thank you for your very good reply. I took her to the vet. They gave her two injections to get her gut stimulated. Her body temp was a bit high the vet said. She’s out on weight since her last visit too. I’ve brought her home encouraging her to eat greens. She’s nibbling them and hay. She just...
Hi folks. My 4 year old rabbit was fine yesterday but today refuses her food. Drinking water abd I got her some new carrot and basil to tempt her. She just sniffs them. I have booked her in to the vet to check her teeth. But concerned if I leave it too long she will go downhill fast. Have I...
Hi All I hope you are all well and your bunnies too. Here in the U.K. we are experiencing very hot weather which is great for some but not our rabbits. I wondered how any of you keep your rabbits cooled to avoid heatstroke. I use a tepid water spray which is like a miss which I will gently spry...
We have Jasper home now in his casket with my favourite picture of him. It's strange but it feels more like he is still with us now I have his ashes back. Hope I do not sound too morbid.
