Hi everyone,
I need some advice. I have a 8month old mini lop called CoCo Puff, She has a dislocated hip which has already formed a false joint, a fractured pelvis & now her spine is curving & she is falling over more & also has little fits if she is touched near a certain part of her spine. She has been disabled since 3months old.
She is a happy girl, loves her food, always grooms me & her favourite part of the day is at night when she gets to snuggle with her brother & dad to sleep as they are off exploring our backyard during the day.. She fell off some boxes she was climbing on at about 2months & recieved her injury then fully disabled at 3months. She has feeling in her legs so they scoot abit with her but she is still legs out sideways
She has been to the vet & they said there just isnt anything they can do & just make her short life comfortable. I waz also told by another to euthanize her but I vowed to let her tell me when she is ready!
Twice daily I Equissage her whole body - this helps blood flow, stiffness & muscle tone & control, because of this she doeznt dribble wee all over herself & had more musle freedom . I also scrat h her all over, clean ears & scratc her feet, groom her whole body both side & was her genitals if needed- she appreciates it all and grooms me in return.
My only fear is her quality of life? She fallz over alot more now when scooting around & will she be happy just sitting in one spot most of the time. I love this little girl & also have to young childrento look after so caring for her and them I never get time to myself but I dont care one but, I just want whats right for her & to have a happy life.
Can any one give me their stories or advice, it would be greatly appreciated
