Take care, sweet friend and be safe. My thoughts will be with you and Miz Sophie every moment until we know she is out of harms way. You are the best Mom a bunny could ever hope for, Tonya. I know having you close to her will give her much comfort as she recovers. She's a fighter, Zip, and we will stay positive and continue to pray for our beloved fur friends' speedy, complete recovery. We are with you both in spirit and prayer. {{{hugs}}} Love, Sandra and the Furfamily.
Tonya, that is the first time I have seen a picture of Mz.Sophie and she is so beautiful, you know how I love the little black babies like Daisy, she has such a sweet face, you know that we will all be praying and crossing every finger, toe and paw that she will be feeling much better soon. Please give her a little hug from all of us.
Jackie, Miss Daisy and Perry

Hugs, love & positive prayers for a complete recovery
for our Sweet Sophie Bunny...
{{{{HUGGS}}}}} to Zippy & Sophie..:)
Phred, loved the pic of Zip & Sophie sleeping. Soooo Sweet.
Good news and not-so-good news:
Good news:
She's eating. I called the vets' office before I left and they told me she had finished up a tiny bit of parsley but she hadn't ate otherwise. Once I was actually there, I found out that she had just devoured a couple of carrot tops (The vet went 'bunny shopping' last night and brought her back carrots/carrot tops, spinach (which she hates--I told him that :rolleyes: ), cilantro, parsley, etc.
When I walked into the "quiet room" she recognized me, came to the corner of the cage, and stood on her hind feet. A BIG improvement from the first day! At first, I couldn't get her to eat any parsley. So I took a towel and made a 'bunny burrito' (she's still messy at her back end) and just held her. She got lots of ear/nose/neck skritches and kisses. After awhile she got fidgety so I set her back in her cage and she ate some parsley. The vet brought out a couple more carrot tops and Soph began to beg for them. I think we might've found a new favorite!
I tried to feed her some hay--she chewed it but didn't eat it. The vet said he'd rather she eat hay than anything else but since she was finally eating, he wasn't going to be too picky at this point. He also said she has made much more of an improvement than he thought she would. We're still not out of the clear however, which brings us to the bad news:
Sophie still has diarrhea. The vet is doing all that can be done (fluids, feeding her 'good' bunny bacteria from a healthy rabbit's cecotrophs, electrolytes, Rx, and something else...forgot...). He pretty much said that the next 3-5 days are the most critical --if there isn't a 'bowel' improvement (producing pellets, NOT diarrhea), she's probably not going to get well.
Sophie was much more active today but still not herself. Her eyes were a little more 'Soph' but you can still tell she just doesn't feel well at all.
Thank you guys for caring about us, I'm going to ask for continued prayers. Prayin' for poop...who'd have thought?!
One more thing... in the "quiet room" there is a diabetic calico cat, Meg, who isn't doing too well. I'm not sure if she's in a coma or just 'out of it' from the meds/pain killers or ??? Will you please keep Meg in your thoughts and prayers as well?
Well, Tonya, some of that is good news. And the more receptive she is to eating the better. Sophie and you are in our prayers, and we will pray for the veterinarian who is looking after her as well. Take care of yourself and give gentle bunny hugs and kisses to that sweet girl for us, please.
Logan :)
Praying hard for Sophie to start making pellets!!! Prayers on the way for sweet Meg too and of course, still for you.
Mis Sophie, you keep eating all the good stuff they give you and become a pellet making machine.
(((HUGS - SOPHIE)))
Tonya, take care of yourself and I know it's hard but get some rest. Miz Sophie needs you well.
(((HUGS - TONYA)))
(((HUGS - MEG)))
That is some reassuring news, Tonya. The vet seems to be a very caring one, doing everything possible to pull her through. I'll bet Sophie was very glad to see her Mommy. We will keep saying our prayers for you, Miz Sophie and dear little Meg. Hugs and all our love to you, Tonya. Love, Sandra
Tonya, more prayers are on the way for Miz Sophie. I sure hope that she starts to make pellets soon. All fingers and paws are crossed here. Good luck.
I'm stillp raying for Sopie, and I will start to pray for Meg. I hope both are getting better quickly. Im glad to here she is eating. Sorry to hear about diarrhea. Please get better Sopie, your mommie needs you!

Zippy,
Glad to hear some good news about Sophie !!!
Sounds like a very caring vet Sophie has there.
Prayers will continue for her to get stronger & feel
better every day. How like you to think of another
sweet furkid who also needs prayers. Of course,Meg
will be in our thoughts and prayers as well. Try to get
some rest. Positive thoughts still coming your way..:)
MMMMM, prayers will certainly continue for you BOTH!! Tonya, I am worried about you driving because you are distracted with worry about Sophie.
Your vet sounds wonderful and I am very glad for that!
Yes, you got it right - PRAY FOR POOP!
Leave it to you to ask for prayers for someone else aside from yourself and Sophie - yes, Meg will be in my prayer list too!
You know how much all of us love you here, and we will be anxious for any news that you have - but hope for only really good news!
Much Love, Gini
