Hi,
I'm new here, so sorry for just bursting in with my own post.
We have had bunnies for nearly 10 years. After losing one of our bunnies a couple of months ago, we got Hector from the RSPCA just over a month ago. They think he is about a year old.
He is eating fine - we let them (we have a girl bunny, Lucy, too) free to roam the garden during the day, so have ample leaves and grass, and we give them Excel, same amount as we gave the two of them before, along with carrots, cabbage, hay. He seems to be eating all of these, and as far as I know, he's drinking too.
But, he has started to look really thin. His haunches are showing, and he just looks thin. He's bounding about and really seems happy though.
I've booked him in at our vets for tomorrow afternoon, but does anyone know what there could be wrong?
I have no idea what he weighs, he is quite skittish, and we've wanted to let him settle in before we start handling him too much. I'm hoping he won't be too much trouble to get into the carrier tomorrow!
Thanks for any advice.
