Rabbit Advice - *UPDATE*

Lisa, I'm so sorry to hear this.:( Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent his way. Please continue to keep us updated about him. Take care.(((HUGS)))

Poor Button Bunny Boy! An abcess is nothing to mess with, and as you said, no wonder he wasn't eating! Miss Hoppy suggest a nice juicy raisin or two might perk him up. (She gets three a day, as bunnies are not good at digesting sugar, so they say 1 ounce of fruit/raisin allowed per pound of rabbit per day!)

Will keep Bunny Button in my thoughts and prayers.

I too will be praying for sweet bunny Button. Hope he feels better SOON!!!

He's not eating. We started force feeding this evening. Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated. I bought a jar of baby food, squash and I crushed his pellets and mixed with warm water. I read to feed KMR also? Gosh I never dreamed having a rabbit would be this difficult. I feel like I've done something wrong here and really feel terrible about it. He was so healthy and living it up with the cats, and now this. The first time we went to the vet I asked if the cats could give him anything and he seriously doubted it. This last vet specialized in exotic animals and Kevin said she seemed really good!

Poor baby! I hope the lancing will help it be less painful and clear up more quickly! Come on Bunny Button, please eat!!

Did you try the Nutri-Cal?

Lots of prayers for bunny Button. Poor little guy; that's a lot to deal with. Come on, sweetie, you can do it!!!

One of my dear friends had a bunny for over 10 years. Her daughter won it at an Easter egg hunt (her mother was not as happy as the daughter!), but they took him home and lived a happy life.

Oh no! Prayers going out that Bunny Button starts getting better soon.

How is the little guy today?

Please check pet memorial for some tragic news. :(

I am SOOOOOOO sorry for your loss. RIP Buttons.
