He was done on monday - He's recovering really well. They were planning on keeping him in monday evening but at about 4:30 I had a call to say he had started eating and I can pick him up at 8pm after he had his next injection.
He's acting back to normal now, he has metacam 4 times a day until friday and a check up on thursday but he isn't interested in picking at his wound
I bought him a dog bed to lie in and he loves it, especially when he gets nose rubs in it
I've noticed that some people who took their buns in didn't come away with painkillers (metacam), I think that is really bad of your vets and if they haven't rectified the problem I would complain.
Stitches op cost me £45 and that included the metacam to take home, an overnight stay if needed (it is in 90% of cases) and a 3 and 10 day check up. I paid £58 in total as they gave him 2 gut stimulants whilst he was there to get him pooping.
Kira stayed in overnight with them - The nurses are awake all night to give food and meds etc. A spay is so much bigger that I'm suprised even before the op some vets say that you can pick up at 4:30 It really does depend on how well the animal recovers.
I feel really lucky that I'm local to a good vets (well 10 miles I travel each way), it's such a shame that not all vets are rabbit savvy but I hope that all other buns who have had a recent op are all feeling much better now :wave:
