Cookie has been dropped! :(

I am really worried about her and thanking our lucky stars that she is going to the vets tomorrow!
Obviously it was not done on purpose, we had her out in our room so she could stretch her legs and have a run around and when it came to putting her back in her cage, my Husband picked her up and she lept out of his arms and fell to the floor landing on her side she seems ok in herself but because she was spayed less than 2 weeks ago I am so worried she may have internal damage?!

Oh no! Hopefully everything will be fine. Loads of vibes for her.

Thankyou, do you think she will be ok? Are they tougher than we think? I am really worried about her!

It would be very difficult for any of us to make suggestions really - rabbits fly out of peoples arms all the time I am sure - sometimes with no ill effects and sometimes they can have hurt their spine/bones or be bruised or winded. They of course will hide their pain to avoid being 'picked off'. So she may well be okay, but then again she may be hiding her pain. As far as breaks go, you should be able to see if she isn't moving correctly but any internal damage wouldn't be very obvious.

You are right to be concerned as any torsion/twisting (particularly to right herself whilst falling) could cause problems with her internal stitches. She could suffer from a tear or internal bleeding which you would not be able to spot, but a vet might be able to feel for or at least know what to be looking for. Swelling and change in temperature would be a sign that all is not well.

If you think that the height from which she fell or the angle at which she landed could cause any harm, then I don't think you have any option Rachael but you should call the emergency vet, even if it's just to talk to them about her. They should give basic advice over the phone but if you are in any doubt, then if I were you, I'd be down to the vets.

How is she this morning?

Sound advice from Helen so I won't add to it,but just wondering how Cookie is this morning?

What's the News?

Any update Rachael?

Still no news.

I hope it's nothing to worry about.

I am really sorry for not updating sooner!!
Everything is ok, her health check went well, vet could not see any problems and had a feel of her tummy, he said she seems like a happy bunny and I think he had a soft spot for her!
She would not let him look in her mouth!! but he did say that he would imagine that the vet who spayed her would have looked in her mouth whilst she was under.
We found an old wound on her shoulder this morning, the vet had a look and had to pick the scab off to check for any infection as it looked like a pretty nasty wound, he said it looked clean and just to keep bathing it and put the Manuka Honey on it then after 2 weeks it should be completly healed, then she can go back for her VHD jab.

Thank goodness she didn't suffer any ill effects from her fall.

Glad it all looks good for her future.
