I couldn't sleep tonight until I checked to see if there was a Miz Sophie update. Prayers have been flying fast and furious from here for both Miz Sophie and her mum. I still have time to squeeze a couple more in before bedtime. I know it's hard but the vet's is the best place for Sophie right now. They can help her better than anyone but God can right now.

I've thought about it, prayed about it, and have decided I'm calling into work and going to see Soph. I'll be back tonight but will (more than likely) be spending tomorrow night in a hotel.

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.

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 ), 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?
