A very sad evening ..

Wise Old Thumper
had a call earlier today from someone who had taken in a rabbit , who had then had babies .. Babies are now 4 to 5 weeks old and two were looking "not right" and had fur coming off their noses .

I suggested vet...she said couldnt afford it .. so i agreed to take the poorly looking ones into rescue just so i could get them treated .

within 5 mins of arriving i was escorting the owners to our vets as as soon as i opened the box i suspected myxi .

I so wanted to be wrong ...but i wasnt :(

3 babies had to be PTS . The owner has taken the others home (who show no signs of myxi as yet ) to quarentine indoors ...but has been warned they are unlikely to escape it .

so very very sad ...

sleep tight babies . :(
