I was wondering out of curiosity and also pure worry, what the general life span of an otherwise healthy dental bunny is? If any...
Lily is one and she has problems with spurs...and I have been told today she has rather untidy teeth in general but they dont cause her any pain and she is otherwise fine right now and behaving normally.
My friend and I got our buns checked today at a free clinic and the nurse told me she was otherwise ok and may need a dental in about 6 weeks which i expected. She then said "She is fine other than that so just enjoy her..." and she had also commented on how young she was to have such teeth problems.
I feed her plenty of hay etc so its obviously something she has been born with.
But the nurses words of "enjoy her" really worried me...I dont want her to have a shortened life due to it. I keep on top of her dentals and I always look out for signs of her having trouble..will doing this mean she can be a normal healthy bun? Apart from the teethy troubles of course...
I dont want to even harbour the thought of not having much time with my baby
