Young Bun
I own 2 adorable little bunny's who are my first ever rabbits and I got them due to when I went to work experience
I was doing work experience in a pet shop and they had some rabbits I was feeding and cleaning them out
At the back of the petshop they had some sick animals or animals that they didn't think were ready to go to their new homes
That's where I first met my rabbit, she was 8 weeks old and was skin and bones she was having weight gain problems so had to be fed this special food through a syringe the vets advised that she be put to sleep but the people at the pet shop didn't want to so continued to feed her through a syringe, as I was helping there I also got to feed her through a syringe and she loved it she ate loads of the food so was hard to understand why she was so skinny
Anyway she started to gain weight and by then I'd fallen in love with the little thing so decided I would adopt her as soon as she was fit to leave. Sadly not long after she started gaining weight my work experience came to end so I could no longer see her but the staff there happily kept me informed on how she was doing. Then as she was starting to gain more and more weight they decided I could take her home in a couple of days but then out of no where she lost a ton of more weight and it didn't look good.
But they stuck with her and carried on syringe feeding her despite what the vet said about putting her down then about a week later I got a phone call saying I could come pick her up!!
When I went to pick her up she was still quite skinny but no where near as skinny as she used to be, she had also been paired up with another rabbit to keep her company and there was no way I could have split them up so i adopted them both
Now almost a year later I still have them both and the rabbit that was once skin and bones is now a big fluffy healthy mini lop
