well as most of you know dora lost a lot of weight (from 2.3kg to 1.8kg) in a short space of time she was not eating and had a runny nose...she has responded to treatments adn we have lab results back etc she is eating again wich is great she is back to 2.1kg now so only a bit more ot go to get ehr to normal however arthur used to be around 2.4kg(normal healthy weight he is a lop) then i wieghed him when i did dora for teh 2.1kg weigh in and he is now a whopping 2.9kg well whopping for him!!!!! his belly is quite round and while he is very energetic and can clean himself ideally i would like to make him a little slimmer. so my dilema is how to diet one but not the other. dora hates being hand fed and refuses to eat her dinenr without arthur next to her...which results in "sharing of everything!
 
I have a bit of this trouble with my lops. Mischa is starting to look a little thin and Mini a little plump. If they refuse to eat separate what about hand feeding? Then they can still be together but you can oversee what they eat better.
