Someone I went to school with 5 years ago recently got a rabbit...
So I get a facebook message
Hey! I just got a rabbit and it just seems really upset all the time and I just wanted down advise because I thought I was doing everything OK and giving it everything it needed but its still looking upset
This follows a status I put up outlinjng all the important info, feeling mega happy someone paid attention to it! Anyway...
I went through all of the normal things, with this reply...
Don't know how old he is he is male and no injections he was in a rough way he had really long nails and was dirty I've had the nails cut and cleaned him up he just seems really unhappy
He wee's for England and sometimes his poo is runny he drinka and eats fine when he comes out he just runs round in circles plus hes just moved everything in his cage to one side
And we thinj he's deaf
So... I'm going over on Saturday armed with some hay, some treats, some pellets and a brush.
The rabbit has had his teeth and nails checked and nails cut, so I don't need to really worry about that.
I'm going to look at the living arrangements, what food and hay the rabbit is given and check out the wee and poo to look for abnormalities.
Can anyone give me some suggestions of what to look for?
I'm going to attempt to see deafness by clapping, whistling and making a noise with some tin foil to test different pitches and see if there is any ear movement, however if it is a lop I'm assuming this is more difficult.
Any advice would be great, thanks guys
