Hi
My lionhead bunny Lily is nearly 9 weeks old (she has been with us a week) lives in a cage on her own next to our Guineawe woke on Sunday morning to a horrific site
all of her front arm had no hair on it
She was quiet Inself but eating drinking weeing and pooing
but wasn’t using her arm at all
I spoke to the vets and took her in
They X-ray her and found no breaks on her right arm (the arm with no hair) but found a break on one of her bones in her left arm but the other bone was helping to splinter this
she said the skin was toughened as though it was a burn or scald ?? She has been no where near any hot surfaces or water for this to of happened ?
The hutch is kept outside and have noticed digging marks around the concrete of the base of the hutch and the hutch was not damaged so what ever digging (fox or cat) hasn’t got to Lily.
Lily has been prescribed a pain relief and antibiotic and seems more lively after the pain relief.
But I’m at a loss to what could be up or of happened to her? Does anyone have any ideas ? Or suggestions
lily is currently now being kept indoors until I know she is ok
She’s hoping around more now and using this arm right one more but still drags it at times ?
I’ve posted two pictures the morning we found it (on the pink blanket) And today as you can see the hair is missing on her arm but not on her paw ???
im due to take her for a check up next week unless things change
Thanks for looking
