We had quite the scare last nite withButtercup. My husband had put him in his cage, he went tochange the other two "Rascal's" water, unfortunately they got out ofthe cage. Wilbur the "Bully" ran over to BC's cage, he was onthe top level of it (it's his condo). Well Wilbur jumped up abit the little one really bad. I was in bed, my husband wasyelling for me, I got the two back in their cage and then had a look aBC's mouth. it had a big tear in it where Wilbur bit him.
We called an Emergency vet at 1:00 AM, and brought himthere. The had to give him a General Anaesthetic.He ended up with 6 stitches. The poor little thing, we felt sobad. Thank goodness the vet knew about Bunnies. Wehad called an emergency number once before for Jackie who had a tummyupset, we knew more than they did about bunnies, and they wanted tocharge $190.00 for an emergency visit. We ended up giving herBio Best Plain Yogurt for her upset tummy & it helped (a vetactually told us about that).
He's eaten a little today, my husband took the day off work,I went to work after sleeping 2 1/2 hours last nite.
Right now he's resting in my husbands arms giving him kisses.
I guess the lesson we learnt from this is to make sure thecage is closed tightly when we put BC in his Condo for thenite.
