My fluffy rescue lion head (who I've nick-named Princess Powder-puff) has given birth this evening! (You'll be able to see more about her if you search my previous threads).
Completely unexpected and such a shock! She's been with just 3 weeks so must have been pregnant when she arrived. There had been no reports of her being near or with another rabbit and she was displaying no signs! What a shock!
She's built a very fluffy nest which seems very wiggly. There was one cold, but active kit out of the nest, so I rubbed my hands in Princess's toilet area (nice!), distracted her with a piece of carrot and popped the kit quickly back into the nest.
I've not moved, looked or done anything else as I feel that she needs to be left to it for a bit as its very recent that she's given birth!
Poor poor Princess!!!
