    spine injury cause by vet

    I am so sorry to hear about your rabbit. I think you were linked to my posts on here, and may have read it. Our BunBun was 6 months old when she got attacked and was diagnosed with a spinal injury. The vet gave her four days of Metacam and without coming out and saying it, my daughter was in...

    How long did it take your rabbit to learn to use the litter tray?

    We got our BunBun when she was 3 months old and she had only ever been in small outside wire hutches. We have a two story outside hutch with a wire floor on the bottom level and a solid tray and nest box on the top level. She was also let out to run in the yard for a few hours every day. We...

    Spinal Injury in 6 month mini rex

    Thanks for the comments already! I really appreciate them. Where we are most people would not consider keeping a rabbit in this condition, but I just can't give up on her so quickly. I do understand that at some point we have to evaluate her quality of life, when she is not in pain it is...

    Spinal Injury in 6 month mini rex

    Hello. My daughters 6 month old rex has a spinal injury. She generally gets free roaming time in our fenced back yard, on Sunday when we went to put her in her hutch for the night she was already in it and hiding in the corner. When I checked her over I could tell something was not right and...

    Hello! I stumbled across this site when searching for information on spinal injuries in rabbits. My daughter has a 6 month old mini rex, Daisy (I just call her bunbun), who has a spinal injury. So I am hoping to find some help on how to make her comfortable and where to go from here.
