Young Bun
Hi all I desperately need some advice. I was at the 'rescue' that I sometimes volunteer at this afternoon and I'm extremely concerned about one of their rabbits. They've had one of their females for a year. She came in with hind leg mobility issues due to being housed in a hamster cage since a baby. She's always been able to scramble around but with barely any extension of her hind legs. I've not been there for a month but I got there today to find her unable to use her hind legs at all. she's for absolutely no muscle in her right leg and her other is very weak. She can only drag herself on her front paws and her skin looks raw on the right leg. I noticed her fur was caked in poo and wee all over her bum and hind legs. Iold the owners daughter who blatantly lied, telling me she'd been bathed earlier that day. She then bathed tHe buns legs under a cold water tap?! Apparently she's been like that since last weekend and she's been to the vet and received working treatment and baytril. The owner of the rescue thinks she's done everything she can for this rabbit but I think she's been severely neglected. She's going back to the vet on Sunday and it sounds like she'll be pts. Am I completely overreacting or do I have cause for concern? If I'm not overreacting what should I do??
