Vibes for Surrey Simon Please / Blockage / Ud Friday

T

Wise Old Thumper
Surrey Simon was rushed to the vet's in the early hours of the morning as he seemed in considerable pain and we were hoping it wasn't a blockage...but it was. :(

The emergency vet operated on him straight away and got as much of the blockage out but couldn't reach some of it and said he could either put Simon to sleep or sew him up we opted for sewing him up and we have took him to our own vet this morning.

They took another x-ray of his tummy and the blockage was moving although he was still gassy. He has had lots of meds and he is back home now and has lots more meds to have round the clock and a lot of TLC.

He has been through a lot just recently as he had a big dental Op on Friday and now this :(

Please could Surrey Simon ( called that as he came from Furry Friends rescue all the way from Surrey) have some Vibes please to stay safe

Thank You xxxx


Our Special boy Surrey Simon.

Not at the moment as he only had the Op last night and he is on Vetergesic injections which make him drowsy. He was actually out last night before we took him to the emergency vets as he free ranges in the house.
 
Come on little Simon, stay strong and get well for ur mum. My lance had emergency surgery for a blockage start of June and he pulled through it so bunnies do make it for this type of surgery. Sending healing vibes and I know how stressful dthis is for u x

Update 2:12 am

Well he has been nibbling hay and some dried herbs, he's passed some poops, I put a small dish of fresh herbs in with him tonight and he
started eating some and he is much better than last night.

Here is the x-ray they took at the emergency vet's Tuesday night and you can see how bad he was, we very nearly lost him :(
