Lindt bunny
Warren Scout
As you know I had to pts my little sweet Truffle and bury her yesterday.
This, to me, has brought about a lot of questions and if any of you could help me reason it would be helpful for me.
The vet said it had been collitus (sp?) and even though I spent £170 on treatment we could not save her
Reading through the forum this sort of stomach condition is very common and very upsetting. Is it more likely in young buns or just any? Was it something I did or didn't do?
My hubby wants me to look for another rabbit and continue with my plans to keep two together in a forever home and luxury hutch but I am shaken by the whole experience. If I had the nerve I would want a rescue bun again as there seem so many but I am unsure. Is a slightly older bun a better option as little one's are cute before not very strong.
My other bun is Sooty who is 12 weeks (currently living in her own 4ft indoor cage which was seperate but alongside Truffle's) while my hubby is still putting the finishing touches to the hutch outside. It is an 8ft in length hutch and has a slide divider with 3 options (1. a solid divide, 2. a double weld mesh divide (for the start of the bonding process and 3.) a big arch way for (if and when two are sharing after a successful bond).
Here it is .... today hubby wants to put the roof on and weather protect it. It will be placed inside a bunny style aviary as well.
