This pair of bunnies arrived yesterday :love: They are an elderly couple with a few health problems. Poor Geoff found the journey particularly stressful and is taking awhile to settle down. He has a runny eye and probably needs a dental. Geoff is absolutely devoted to Marion :love: She is supose to have kidney problems that make her incontinent but I will be getting this checked out by a vet in the week. She also has terrible dental problems. Her back teeth look rotten and I suspect the problems with her top incisors have been caused by them being clipped by nail clippers :( They are shattered and the gum is receeding. One of the teeth has a piece growing out at a 90 degree angle. Never seen anything like it before :?

Here's Geoff

:( Oh Liz bless them both - such a lovely little couple :love:

What's their story? Where have they come from?

They have sat in a "rescue" for a couple of years and haven't really had the treatment they needed :( But that will all change now and once they have finished their quarantine they will be moving into their own playhouse :)

They didn't come with names, Steve named them John and Norma, my neighbour wanted Terry and June as I am using her summerhouse again:oops: but thankfully it was my turn to choose :lol:
 
OOOh, they are lovely....another two bunsters that ill look forward to hearing updates on :)
 
I have set them up a temporary playpen for their quarantine :)

Marion ate well this afternoon but Geoff is still a little nervous

Hopefully Geoff will settle overnight. I can empathise having experienced this so recently with Noah! Geoff does have the huge advantage of a partner bun, although against that he's older than Noah and more frail. But hopefully by tomorrow he'll be recovered from the surprise of moving... :wave:

Thanks, he is rather on the podgy side so can mange with a little less food :? Although he is still bony across his hips, that could be old age or more likely a complete lack of exercise :(
 
He is still really stressed but did eat a little more last night. I haven't seen much of them today as it's been pouring with rain :roll: but I will update later when they have been fed this afternoon. Marion is booked in to see the vet Thursday when Timmy has his check up. I am going to leave Geoff a bit longer if he seems OK as I really think they are having trouble adjusting at the moment.
