Corky's in surgery....

[bunnydude]

I think that they are so that they can't groom the affected area. They use 'em on dogs alot.

 

[mambo101]

Ok. That makes sense. I did see one on a dog this past Sunday and was wondering what the heck that was for.

 

[CorkysMom]

Yep, otherwise he'll pull his stitches...and with close to 100 of them...we don't need that!!!

We're having some cuddle time now....I think he's tired now...I'mgetting a lil teeth grinding off and on and I'm hoping its cuz he likesthe cuddle time, not cuz he's hurting!!

PGG... you and Corky have been so brave throughthis all. You are both fighters... stay strong for him and hewill stay strong for you. I'm glad to hear he is doing aswell as can be expected right now. Make sure to give him lotsof kisses and snuggles... tell him to hang in there like he isdoing. He is such a good boy... and I still think you are awonderful bunny mom and he loves you very much.

Good luck!You will both be in my prayers. :kiss:

I think this tread has been the only positiveone today. I'm so proud of our little Corky, he's such astrong boy. What a fighter you have. I bet he's amischievous one when he's feeling 100%. As my nana used tosay "he's a little pistol." LOL

Hi PGG !!!

It is 8.30 am here, and I have just turned on my PC logged on the net,and came straight here to see how our little angel is doing.

I am sooooooooo glad that Corky is doing well and that you are too.

I think all of us here, have gone through this with you in one way or another.

I think Corky should be our Forum Mascot

Looking forward to some more positive news later.

 

[Cheetos mom]

I hate to admit that I can be superstious (sp?), its so irrational, but....

Ever notice bad stuff happens in threes? Well, with all the bad newsaround here lately, I do believe we are over out quota so, don'tworry, Corky will be just fine!!

 

[LittleMija2]

The fact that your bunny is fighting so muchsays a lot about you. I really hope he makes it and continues a happyhealthy life. You are agood bunny parent and as much as itwas sad reading this, i was happy to see that you care for him so muchand that there are bunny owners whotruly love thier furryones. Just keep giving him love and letting him know hes safe. What anamazing little fighter... Ohhh and dont blame yourself at all, you havedone more than most people would have.

Good thoughts for you both

Here's some pics of Dr Mark's handywork. Normally he woulda stitched inside, but with this muchhe said it woulda took him3 hours! Oh and as I was holdinghim so my son could take the pics..he kept kissing me!!!

This is the side of him...

Here is underneath...the stitches go clear around the front leg, but its hard to see here, but you get the idea:
