Sick Rabbit *updated with pics*

[Karen]

Ok, back from the vets.

I found out that Hunny is a HE not a she. When we bought her, both me and the shop lady thought he was a girl, guess we were wrong.

The vet gave Hunny an antibiotic injection, a prescription for his diarrhea, and for liquid Echineacea. She is also ordering a special topical cream because one of hunny's paws has a little skin irritation.

She says Hunny doesn't seem very sick, and will probably be 100% in less then a week. We are going back in on thursday afternoon, just for a check up.

Guess that explains the lumps! Whew, glad your Hunny-boy isn't that sick! And, while I know you'll get him *fixed* when you can afford to, at least he's a boy, and the consequences of being unneutered aren't quite as dire!

^ I also asked my vet about a payment plan for getting Hunny neutered and she said she would let me pay it out over a month, but it is better to wait until he is fully recovered.

Anyway, I spent a fortune in there today, like always. Another 60 euros for the neuter wont make that much of a difference.

I don't have too many on the computer, but her are the few I have.
Bunny is black and Hunny is white.

These are from last spring, so Bunny is a bit bigger now.


Bunny's new cage, as a consolation prize for getting neutered (and to make room for Hunny).

Bunny and Hunny's first meeting. They really didn't like each other.



Bo and Hunny LOVE each other. I am surprised Bo is so gentle, he is really rough with everyone else, except the rabbits.




Friends at last.


Last week I just built them a little enclosure in the kitchen, so I wouldn't have to watch them constantly when they are loose. Hunny is still small enough to escape through the holes, but "she" always runs straight under the dog's couch. I will post pics soon.

Poor Hunny. Last night we had to take her to the vets again, and she spent the night there. She has a really snotty nose, and mega skin irritation on her ears/feet. I just picked her up this morning, and together with the vet gave her an injection. Now I have to give her a shot for the next 4 days, and go back to the vet for a checkup on friday. I am going to take Bunny in on friday just to be on the safe side.
