I haven't been on here in a LONG time. I think largely because I feel guilty. I've posted before about getting into deep depressions and not caring for my boys. Well, it got bad. Bugsy is just one big ball of matted fur and they both have poopy butts. I try to trim them sometimes, but it is bad and I even nicked Bugsy pretty bad about a week ago. Today, I decided to give him a butt bath. Then, I wrapped him in a towel and snuggled him, gently pulling out little bits of matted fur as I found any I could pull. Over the hour or so since, he's been hopping up to see me and gets cuddlier when I pull out the matts. I need to get him taken care of. I don't have a car, but might get one tomorrow. If it is as good as the guy says and I do get it at the low price he says, I'll have money to take them to the vet to get shaved. Maybe. I know that when they weren't this severely matted, it was $65. Now they are bad and I know anesthesia will be involved. This will increase the cost. I only have money because of my taxes and, with my job screwing up my hours, I don't have much to live on once that is gone.
If I can't get them shaved at the vet soon, what options do I have?
I'm also worried that the vet will judge me and maybe even tell me I should give up my bunnies. i don't want that.
I've been in the middle of hell for a while and it is only getting worse. My bunnies are a bright spot in my life and I feel terrible for neglecting them. I have a roommate now who will help me care for them when I am too depressed.
I don't know. Should I give them up to someone who will care for them more? They seem happy here. Even Groucho will come and snuggle briefly once in a while. But maybe they'd be better with someone else.
Please advise me.
