Best guess is the cancer weaken the body, so he can't stand the cold.
A blackberry (6 to 12 oz) and/or acaiberry juice daily can take care of the cancer cells.
Or if you can buy the brand name Arthur's Farm Acai + juice, that would make a big difference too.

The only bunny I have had with severe cancer was Edith, who had multiple abdominal tumours. She was a house rabbit but we gave her round the clock snugglesafes as she always wanted to be on the heat. We had 3 just for her that we alternated day and night so she was always warm so I guess the heat does help make them comfortable.
Are they able to operate Theo?

I agree with the cold and feeling it more Luckily, Tilly-Mint was an bun who lived in the big bunny-house and it was warm in there - she still liked to play out in the garden on sunny days but of a night, she had a heatpad and snuggled up to her Buster
Sexy-Bun had an inoperable tumour and he was a house bun - he also felt the cold more and would have times where he liked to snuggle into you for the warmth and also had a heatpad as well as his partner Kracker
Minnie-Moo had a tumour that we didn't know about, she was a house bun and we used to see her practically living in the fire:shock: We knew something was wrong when she started refusing to go out in the garden unless it was really warm - we found out about her tumour a few months later.
When we have buns that really start to fee the cold we start to go on alert as it can be something bad

it's the 2nd 1 from the right
If you don't have it near your city
Go to
http://www.genesistoday.com/genesis_today_products/acai_100.html
You can buy this anywhere, it doesn't taste good as it tastes very sour, but it's very good for your health (or your bun)
However, I treated Goofball mostly (at least 90%) w/ blackberry only, w/ the remaining using Heal X.
I did use those ?? tea that Tree suggest, but looking back, I would buy Heal X:
If you don't have time or money on buying that level of black berries, I very highly recommend you to buy this substance called Heal-X Booster
http://www.exoticdvm.com/index.cfm?...ction&productGroup_id=108&parentGroup_id=116&
it's cheap, and 1 bottle can heal many rabbits from cancer
this link shows your UK distributor:
http://www.exoticdvm.com/distributors
essentially it's anti toxic substance that stop cancer cell from forming
But
Sorry to read you have a bun with cancer. My 11 year old Molly was diagnosed with "masses" a month after I adopted her . I gave her this Essiac tincture after someone on here suggested it. I had another wonderful 15 months with her... did the Essiac help... who knows but I thought it was worth a shot.

Good luck.
p.s. Molly was an outside bun and never suffered from that.

I also use the above on Goofball except in tea format, as recommend by Tree, Marlene and other people. It's useful, but the reason I switch to Heal X is that Heal X is very concentrated. But the above product is not familiar to me, my one is a essiac tea powder that I have to boil and mix w/ water to give it to my bun
regardless, don't get discourage by cancer. I see 2 major way a bun or a human can get cancer:
1) abnormal negative influence: 2nd hand smoke, inhale paint, etc.
2) the body creates the abnormal cells
Most bun falls in category 2. You have to remember that since the body creates it, it can un-do it. The solution I post above, especially the long post on Goofball does work very nicely. Since she fully recover, I'm convince that having cancer is not the end of the world for a rabbit

Thank you everyone for your comments and suggestions, I was wondering about the cold as I had noticed this before with another bunny that had cancer and sadly went to the bridge and this bunny has started not to like the cold which is strange because he was an outdoor bunny, thank you Jay for confirming my thoughts on it.
I will go through all the other information, thank you all so much
