Young Bun
Took her to the vet this morning. He said its just that sprawled leg syndrom(sp?). Nothing can be done about it but make her as comfy as possible and as long as she's mobile that is all that matters. She is roughly 5 pounds and is a Holland Lop/Mix. He also said that she is in relative good health, gave her her rabies shots, a few shots that is required for bunny's to stay healthy(dont remember the name). He said she is in virtually no pain.. He was watching her reactions when he started playing with her legs, Yes she didn't like it but didn't react like she was in pain. He specializes in Rabbits it turns out, wife breeds them and they have several as pets and he grew up with pet rabbits and feeder rabbits. He said that my brothers girlfriend/his vet tech was right about her approx age. She's in excellent/great condition. No skin problems, courtesy blood work came back healthy. He put her in a rabbit playpen he has for ppl who have several rabbits to allow them to roam abt while confined while watching them for anything out of ordinary 'n examing their buddies.... and he said she gets around just fine for a bunny with 2 good legs and she has approx 85% use of her right rear leg, and has approx 5% use of her right front leg*very limited use due to how it is*. He said she is a healthy weight for her size. And to reduce the amount of pellets available at all times until we get her used to a regulated diet as she is used to free feeding pellets. He does applaud my ingenius way of making a bed for her(gotta get the supplies to make it but i approached him abt the concept and he said that he'll buy 'em for their bunnies 'n his clinic if i ever decide to do that for profit*which i might do if it comes out like i want and he approves~which will be excellent to get a vet approval~*).
O he also said that since she's already 3yrs old, that most likely she'll be able to live to a "old" age for a bunny. So she'll be here for quite awhile. he said avg life-span for a disabled bunny is dependent on the disablity.
