Soooo, after taking Pipkin for a check up today to see about his weight I'm pretty unimpressed and thinking about finding a new practice.
The vet that I usually see and is best with bunnies has now left. I was assured that everyone at the practice was just as knowledgable so I took him to see a vet I'd never met before. She was nice and all but all she did was check Pipkin's teeth and weight and say he must have quite a high metabolism :? Then she said that if I was still worried I should seperate him and Ruby and feed him ad lib pellets. Do you think this would be a good idea? I'd really rather not seperate them completely. They have their meals seperately as it is and they don't like that very much...
The vet also completely stressed both the rabbits out. She claimed lovely calm Ruby was a 'wild one' :? It was only because she picked them both up by the scruff. They're not used to that, of course they were nervous.
I'm thinking of finding a second opinion anyway, but I don't know of any other good rabbit practices in the area. I live in Hemel Hempstead so as close to there as possible would be good
