Young Bun
Anyone know what could make a little bun just drop down dead?
I went out to my hutch yesterday morning and found Cyprus lying on the hutch floor dead.
She had been eating drinking, frolicking and playing fine up until then, the only thing i noticed about her, was she kept standing on her hind legs and then falling backwards, she had NO balance from the day we got her, we just thought she was quirky, she also had no fear and would jump off anything at any given oppertunity- we thought she was silly or brave, but could that have been an indicator of soemthign wrong?
Other than that she had been fine, she was always lively and happy, I posted a thread when I had trouble with her poo but that was fixed when i realised she and my other bun were being fed way too many pellets.
My other bunny is fine, she used to fall over on her hind legs a bit, but she ws nothing like Cyprus and I am takin Pika to the vet on tuesday just in case Cyprus had anything as they came from the same place.
I am so sad, my poor little bunny, she showed no sign of injury or illness or discontent, she just went
She belongs to my housemate who was away and I had to ring her and tell her, she said it could have been cold, but it was one of the warmest nights yet and she has plenty of bedding and the hutch is draught free or her seeing a predetor or she could have fallen and injured herself when she was beign a silly but i really dont know- is the balance thing normal for young bunnies?
