Hi Everyone,
Just got our bun back from the vets, and the vet said she gave him a 48hr pain relief injection for abdominal pain, I've only ever heard of a 24 hour one..
Silly me forgot to ask because of the stress and wot not, but I will phone later and try and find out, but I thought I would just post in here to see if anyone's heard of such a thing..?
She also gave him a gut motlity injection in his thigh? when all the other vets usually inject them in the scruff of the neck..
is this unusual?
Thanks
Martin

Hi Everyone,
I just wanted to update this post and say a HUGEEE THANK YOU to everyone!..
Through all of this, and after the tears and heartache of the last few weeks etc, Snuggles has been eating, drinking and pooping regulary now for the last 6 days, he's full of mischief again. binkying and even developed some new tricks.. following us to the kitchen and begging by the fridge.. he is off the fluids and most of his other meds. and everything seems to be flowing fine.. he is miles better compared to where we were just a couple of weeks ago, ,we really thought we were going to lose him.. but somehow he has amazingly recovered from almost a 2 week stasis, and whatver else was happening in his body!..
I hope that anyone else who is experience this for their first (or any time) really, finds some comfort in knowing that they can and do pull through even when the vet is less than competent.. but also to stress the importance of a RABBIT SAVVY vet.. something I now fully realise.
Thank You to everyone for all of your encouragement and support, and for being part of this amazing forum... I would of been a complete wreck without you, and Snuggles says THANK YOU too..I have learnt so much through all of this, about myself too..
He's now our miracle bunny!..
