Tinsel
Wise Old Thumper
Went to let trio out of hutch; noticed that Hydrangea wasn't leaping around for breakfast like she normally does. Watched her - sitting on her own/not grazing/ She let me pick her up - REALLY bad sign. Could hear her breathing really loudly; saw she was mouthbreathing. Didn't want to use emergency vets - they're rubbish and have lost the last two rabbits I've taken there. Injected her with depocillin and put her straight into Mulberry's nebuliser - breathing seemed better after that but still not normal.
Quite a jerky quality to some of her breathing. Left her with some spring greens; came back; she hadn't really touched them but a pile of light/bright green jelly next to her. Wondered if she could have brought it up but rabbits don't do that I thought? Normal droppings a few minutes later and for rest of day.
To cut a long story short - after much monitoring etc - this afternoon she started behaving more normally. Just went to nebulise her and her breathing seems completely fine. Could she have choked? Will take her to my rabbit savvy vet in the morning but she's now eating/behaving completely normally. I'm totally baffled. Anyone have any ideas? :?
