Hi all,
I came home today to find mabel lying on her side and not looking well atall. I rang the vet and took her in (out of hours so its cost be a fortune as id only recently decided i would cancel the insurance!) They examined her and said they think she has a chest infection. They have given her some antibiotics and an anti inflammatory. They also sent me home with some more antibiotics and some food incase she doesn't eat. She is now eating though so i will leave that out for now.
My two bunnies are in an insulated shed but the vet said to bring them in and re introduce them outside when the weather improves. What would you do from here? Keep them in until spring, keep them in permanently or send them back out asap? The vet did say when rabbits are prone to chest infections they often come back?
Im so annoyed i cancelled the insurance. I figured i would just transfer the money each month into savings instead. BIG MISTAKE..
