    Thanks so much. He seems to be declining rapidly. I keep asking myself where we went wrong, but from reading I guess they can be carriers of snuffles? I can't get him to eat much at all now. We feel just terrible.
    Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers

    How old is he? If he's eating his veggies, I wouldn't worry about him drinking much. I hope he fels better soon. Miss Hoppy HATES the syringe, but sometimes finds the antibiotics yummy, fortunately.

    Oh I am so sorry. It is so important to take him back to the vet or get that Oxbox Critical Care and force feed him. I had to do that with Benny and it saved his life. I also recieved from my vet a second med to increase his appatiate. Some grocery stores do carry dandilions at least here in Ohio. Are you taking him to a vet who specializes in rabbits? Best of luck to you.

    Thanks everyone! My husband has him at the emergency vet right now. It is one that specializes in rabbits, and those are hard to find around here especially on a Sunday.

    He quit eating and drinking and was just laying there. He declined so rapidly it was unbelievable. I'm sitting here on pins and needles waiting to hear.

    I don't have any good advice but he'll be in my prayers!
    Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but rather by the moments that take our breath away.

    Thank You, Michelle!!!
