Well dad let Boof out accidently when smokey was out. He didn't know Boof snuck out so he was out there for a coupe of hours.
I went out to cut some grass for my indoor guinea pig Sahara, and i saw a rabbit lying next to the step kind of lying on it's side. i thought it was smokey cause each rabbit has a sectioned off run of the backyard that we always put them in. When i got a little closer i saw it was Boof, and i picked him up. He was all floppy, i looked at his nose and there was blood all over his face. I ran inside with him, and gave him to mum, then quickly ran out to find smokey. Smokey was down the other end of the yard, and i grabbed him. he was floppy as well. he had blood on his face and side, but when i checked for wounds i found that it was Boof's blood. Smokey's only injury was that he lost a toenail on his back foot. i cleaned it up, then saw mum trying to clean up Boof. She was crying and couldn't do it. it was making her sick. She is usually good with injuries, but because Boof is technically her rabbit, she couldn't take it. i took Boof from her and told her to look away as i cleaned him up with salt water. There was a lot of blood. I found a big gash on his left nostril and a small cut just under his right eye. He also had fur pulled out from under his chin, plus his lip and nose are swollen. The worst of his wounds is his lip. Inside his mouth, the bottom lip has been ripped open and he cannot eat. We are not too worried about him not eating much, cause he has to lose weight anyway, but we will have to force feed him fluids. Boof is also on antibiotics, so it is even harder to get him to take it.
Here is a picture of Boof face while we were cleaning up all the blood.

Please pray for our bunnies, especially Boof who was sick to begin with and is very weak now. When dad came home he felt so bad.
