On the 21st of September I lost my 8.5 year old rabbit to a dental abscess. The next day I went to the breeder and he had two rabbits a boy and girl. My son named them Oliver and Rosie. Rosie was playful and full off mischief, Oliver was shy. Well so I thought. I adored them both. Oliver was a good wee bit smaller, thought nothing off it. Over the week I watched them both, but had a feeling something was not right with Oliver he never really relaxed, he ate a lot slower than Rosie too. Not the pellets but hay and grass. Took them for a wee run out the back since the weather was so nice, Rosie ate the grass like there was going to be none soon and Oliver nibbled but not fast. When I got up this morning I saw the Oliver had a wet chin. Alarm bells rang as my last rabbit had this. Took him to the vet who said there was no hope and to take him back. He had a abscess in his roots. I am stunned as he was such a lovely wee thing. I will miss him so much. Rosie is getting spayed and after this I will look for a friend. Until then I hope us humans will do ok. :cry::cry::cry:

Oliver


Rosie


Took this picture of them together before I went to the vet, I never knew he wouldn't be back. Still cannot believe he isn't here with her :(
 
Oh I'm so sorry, that's really sad, poor little chap. I really hope that you can find a nice bun friend for little Rosie, and they can have many happy years together. Xx
 
The breeder is a good friend, he even passed his new rabbit check up last week at the vets. All was good with him
 
Thanks, I hope to get her a friend once she is spayed and recovered. She seems a lot happier now after a few days. Lots of love from all of us :)
 
Hi Ra. Aw Oliver was lovely and so is Rosie. Such fluffy babies and beautiful colours. Glad to hear Rosie is a happier. Did u ever get any update from the breeder to how Oliver is now ?? I am just worried about what he will do with him ?? :(

Oliver was put to sleep that night at the vets. Poor wee sole such a short wee life. At least he isn't suffering anymore. I know he was a lovely wee boy. His colour was lovely.
