Denver, my bun bun is sick!

If Denver had had enough he would just stop eating and give up....that's not happening at the moment.

Give that brave bunny a few kisses from me

This morning, I went to check on the bun buns and Denver was in his little cardboard castle / house sitting in it leaving just his head out and eating from his bowl of food. I always leave pellets out and give them fruits and veggies once a day. He was eating pellets. He devours lettuce and herbs and fruits, but mostly lettuce. I have lots growing in my garden, so he gets it right from the ground. Couldn't be any fresher!

Cinnamon was no where to be found when I was checking, but upon a closer inspection, she was smack up against Denver, tucked to his side, watching him eat. It was so darn cute. They have a love/hate relationship, but are mostly in love these days. I think her being there will give him more reason to hang on.

So, another month of hearing him try to catch his breath while eating..... He seems to be drinking lots these days too. It is hot and humid out, so that would make sense. Yes, they both are in the shade, on the porch, with cats visiting on and off all day.

JuniRose, my one Aby likes to roll on Denver and Cinnamon. She makes a real itch of herself. They sometimes fight back and she could care less. Juni is Juni. She loves the bunnies. She wants to be a bunny. I do have an odd lot here at Camp Vermont.

Thanks for caring about my sweet bunny boy Denver.

I know everyone's support helps in the long run. At least I feel better!

Oh Sallyanne, this woke memories
It is fun to see Juni Rose trying to roll on the bunnies - she is in love with them because they are so nice and fuzzy I am sure.
And good that Cinnamon and Denver are back in love again.
I am sure Denver enjoys all the nice fresh fruit and veggies- well we were very happy with it so why shouldn't he be

Sas I'm sorry I didn't see this thread until now. I just wanted to tell you what a hero you are to Denver and what an inspiration you are to people who consider bunnies 'disposable pets'. I know none of those people 'reside' here in PT land, but they are out there and they all need to meet you!

I will put Denver in my prayers. I really, really hope he starts breathing better. Gosh, you are truly an amazing person to fight so hard for Denver. I can tell from your posts how much you love him. Poor guy

Denver is doing ok. I have been dumping tons of veggies fresh from the garden and he lots them. I am hoping he can kick this thing eventually. I am going to the vet tomorrow, with two well cats, for check ups and I will talk with the vet about Denver, once again.

He seems happy and especially to be back with Cinnamon, his little furry buddy.

He still has a nasty nose discharge and sounds horrible, but it isn't killing him, so, we will learn to adjust. I will have to rethink the winter time though. I may have to house them inside this year as frozen discharge just doens't sound like fun to me.

I will keep you posted.

I will admit, each time I look in on the bun buns, I expect to find Denver expired. So far, not so!

Thanks again.

Thanks for the update, we were wondering how Denver was doing.
