My darlin bun passed y at lunch time today. She had been her usual lovely funny wonderful self until yesterday at about 12pm. I watch her constantly, and yesterday afternoon she suddenly stopped being herself. She would only eat if i sat with her and hand fed her. She ate a little, drank a little, and outputs were less than usual. Before i went to bed last night she had just eaten and drunk etc so i left her till morning.
This morning she was no better, but no worse.
I called the vet first thing to take her in.
The vet found tiny spurs and a very small ulcer on her tongue, but was suprised if that explained her lack pf appetite. She also had a very very mild discharge to the nose.
An hour and a half after leaving the vet she died.
She had a gutstimulant, and painkillers, and been offered recovery syringe food.
My vet is at a complete loss as am i. The only thing we can think is maybe poison? Ivy leaves fed by an unsuspecting three year old?
Please if anyone can offer any suggestion i'd be so grateful. I have other buns who i'm frantically worried about. A post mortom was decided against as due to the speed of my rabbits demise, outweighed against the cost, it's very unlikely that any result would help my other buns in the case of this occuring again as it was so fast.
Possibly the wrong choice, but no going back now.
All plants of any sort have been ripped out and removed by the way.
