I have 3 sets of bonded bunnies (male n female). My oldest pair jess n Molly have been together for 5 yrs and love each other deeply. The female ( Molly) sleeps on top of jess, they are forever washing on another and they are never separated and go to the vets together, even when only one is due an appt.
Both had Ec several years ago , Molly has since had myx and we managed to nurse them back to full health. Molly was diagnosed with an abcsess in her stomach in may 2010 and has been on daily medicine. The vet visits regularly and we have had many discussions that we keep going until Molly shows signs of not leading an active life and not going about her daily duties. The vet came a few weeks ago and said the mass has got larger and we only have a matter of weeks.....a few weeks have passed and I am struggling with taken her to the vets as she is still showing signs of enjoying life but I know this mass is consuming her...her spine has started change shape due to the abcsess. So I have booked an appt.
I don't wait too leave this too late but yet I don't want to cut her life short....this is such a hard decision...I am also stressing about jess and what I need to do to support him.
- should I take jess with me when the time comes.
- should he spent time with her body
- do I need to think about bonding him again or not?
If anybody has any advice, it will be warmly received
