Denver, my bun bun is sick!

You need to take him to your nearest rodent vet IMMEDIENTLY! I think that Petsmart/Banfield can care for rodents. Contact them for more infomation. All my thoughts and hopes for your bun!

Rabbits aren't rodents. Where abouts are you located? Maybe there is a close rabbit savvy vet to take him to or like you said take him to the rescue you got him from.

I hope he starts feeling better soon.

I sure hope that he'll start feeling better soon. Please continue to keep us updated about him.

Well, after nebulizing Denver this morning, he seems to have improved in some ways: 1. His nose is not running 2. His one eye has stopped tearing 3. He is eating more ..... but he still sounds congested and snotty. I did use an antihistimine last night..... just squirted it on his nosey! I think I will try it again tonight.

I never did contact the original place (rescue source) but will do it today.

I have spent over $700 trying to get this "meat rabbit" healed. He is such a little love and is being such a good bun bun..... I JUST WANT HIM TO GET WELL!

Give him an ear tickle from me

but I am not sure she knows all that much about rabbits.

I have called the place where I got Denver, in Massachusetts, and also emailed them. I hope to hear back from them today. I asked them for a name of a good bunny doc in Vermont. My vet just doesn't see that many bunnies with the condition Denver has.................

He is such a little trooper.

I can feel his widdle bones now, not good. I am so happy he was a fat one to begin with. He was ready for the table a couple of months ago. Oh, stop, I would never do that.....just kidding. He really is a bunny brought in to this world to eat!

(((((((((((((Denver))))))))))))) not Dinner.............

We are going to start feeding Denver baby food with herbs in it. I have been asked to give him baby medication (benadryl/grape or cherry flavored) twice a day, to see if that helps, along with nebulizing him with mucamist. If after 10 days there is still no improvement, we will take him to a specialist to have a thorough nose investiagation done......looking for either a tumor or a "lodged" object..... since his xrays showed swelling but not what was causing it! I hope he appreciates all this activity.
