im new to this so ill tell you a little about my bunnys and if you can help please!!
i have 4 lionhead rabbits three girls one boy, the girls zero Babs and mugglebun, the boy monster, i did have 5 which he was a boy named rex, they all age from 2 year down the oldest is babs.
i first got rex and babs when i did my gcse's they where brother and sister i adored everything about them! and still do!
Last year was when i lost rex i was distraught as i had had him from 7 weeks old and doted on him and babs all my money went on them i felt like a failure.
Rex started slavering and loosing weight quite quick but i thought that he lost the weight because my vet told me to cut down on his food so i did but he was still eating i went aways to a festival for a weekend but cam back on the sat to check him he was still slavering and didnt look to well i asked my mum to keepe an eye on him as i was to be back on the monday and she wasnt able to take him to vets on the sunday. When i took him he was diagnosed with overgrown back teeth, so the vet put him in for his operation to have them filed unfortunatly he didnt survive the operation because his heart failed now with my other bunnys i am very cautious of their teeth and giving them the right food even though rex was giving the right food and hay and apple twigs too.
a couple of week after rex, babs was showing the same signs so when i took her to the vets it was confirmed but minor and the vet said it would clear up with the right foods which she had, this was about 5 months ago but over the past few days signs are coming back but not strong signs she eats and runs about fine not tired at all just sneezing (everytime she eats anything and not) and opening her mouth and moving her tongue when shes eating (like shes trying to get comfortble) and the odd watery eye but she doesnt slaver, which is what is confusing me,
i was wonder if this is defenatly the signs of overgrown back teeth and what procedures there are to help as even though i know that to file them down would help her a lot more she is a very timid rabbit and if rexs heart failed im sure hers would too! and i was wondering what procedures people have gone through please helppp !!!!!
p.s she looks fine now she skipping jumping and running round the garden with the other bunnys
