dental tomorrow.

Mama Doe
Penny is going to the vets tomorrow to go under GA, to have her teeth checked and for a possible dental.
Should i keep her in the house over night whilst she recoveres from the GA ? and what should i do when i bring her home ?
Will she feel rough, and not feel up to eating ?
Thanks

From what i've learnt, i'd probably want to keep her in the house, as she can't regulate her temperature after a GA and at least you can keep an eye on her then :)

Lots of good toothy vibes for Penny tomorrow :)
 
She'll need to stay in overnight, as graham said they can't regulate their own temp after a GA.

I'd expect a vet would send her home with some oral pain meds for you to administer.

She'll probably need something yummy to tempt her to eat aswell.
 
Ok thats not a problem. I have lots of yummy rabbit noms in already.:D
Just another quick Q......
I`m bonding penny at the minute with her new friend Kenny. How long should i leave it after the GA, before i can pick up bonding again ?
 
I'd wait until your happy she's back to her normal self and eating happily. Bonding can be quite stressful so you don't want to push it.
