Please Note - Medical Advice
Please keep in mind that posts on this forum are from members of the public sharing personal opinions. It is not a replacement for qualified medical advice from a veterinarian. Many illnesses share similar symptoms but require different treatments. A medical exam is necessary for an accurate diagnosis, without which appropriate treatment cannot be given.
You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions. Even non prescription drugs can do harm if given inappropriately.
We are very grateful to members who take time to answer other members questions, but please do be clear in your replies that you are sharing personal experience and not giving instructions on what must be done.
Urgent Medical Advice: If you need, or think you might need, urgent medical advice you should contact a vet. If it is out of working hours phone your vet's normal number and there should be an answer phone message with instructions on what to do.

He will be fine though, of course! Have you got everything ready for when he gets home i.e. hot water bottle, a snuggly towel for him to bed on, his fave foods etc? I found being uber organised helped me keep calm

You're lucky that your first one is a male neuter, they seem to recover soooo much faster than the females. My first one was my doe Tilly, she was sooooo weak and poorly and refused to eat anything atall until the following day. I was up every hour of the night with her, worried sick. So i expected my boy Timmy to be the same but he was running around almost as normal and ate straight away, phew!
Hope your little man is doing ok xxx

Mine is getting his neuter booked today! im kind of scared...
what did you guys have prepared for your buns when they came back? (other than the aforementioned)
They went back outside in the hutch and were fine, though at the check-up a week later, they said one of them had chewed his stitches out. Short of sitting up with them for 48 hours, I think you can only try to be prepared and act quickly if they don't start to eat or drink.
