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.

i know its ok to cry infront of the children but when i was young i used to worry about people/things dying....therefore i feel like i need to hide the whole death thing.
they know things die and have asked where she is and ive said she has died because she was vey poorly but thats all..they seem to accept it. i dont know whether this is the right way to go about it but its my way of protecting them of worry. as im a major worrier.
thankyou everyone for your comments,,
it does make me think tho.....pets dont live long enough and is it worth the heartache?

i know. i couldnt believe how down she went again.
people do say its just a rabbit. i just dont tell the ones i think that will say that! she was a outdoor rabbit but since she has been ill i brought her in the porchway and i still keep going to go and check on her and obviously shes not there.
i had my dog PTS last year but he was really old and i think that was slightly easier as he was a really good age (15), but i feel bad with miffy cause she was only 3.
thanks for all the thoughts everyone.
