I'm waiting for the out of hours vet to phone back.
Rebel, one of my bunnies, is being treated for snuffles. He saw the vet again on weds, 10 days after the treatment started. No improvement, but not worse. The vet was happy to give it another 10 days and see how it went. He's lost 90g by the second visit though, from a starting weight of 1600g. He's a small Dutch. The vet condition scored him at 2.5 at the second appointment. He was ok this morning, maybe slightly quiet this afternoon, but when I went to feed and check them tonight his breathing is pretty laboured and he's not looking great, although did nibble at some pellets. I weighed him and he's another 100g down, although mine are different scales to the vet obviously, so that might not be correct.
Im not sure whether to bring him indoors and seperate him from the other two buns. Or to take him to the vet alone. They've only be a trio for a couple of months and although the buns do all groom each other and all lay together, I still feel that Rebel is a bit left out and that the for, Sweetie can be a bit intolerant of him, although there aren't any obvious signs of this.rebel and the other bit get on great. They were meant to be a quad, but I sent them to the rescue to be bonded and very sadly we lost Rebel's wife, dash. It was a horrible time and now I'm panicking and I just don't know what to do for the best. I don't want to stress him by being alone, but also don't want to keep him with the others if that's causing stress.
I can't stand to lose another bun.
