Hello this is the first time I've posted on this forum. One of our rabbits has been really poorly with suspected EC and I've found reading about similar problems on this forum incredibly helpful, especially when he was so ill that he couldn't get up and kept rolling over and I was beginning to wonder whether I was being cruel not having him put to sleep.
He is so much better now that he's almost back to his old self, just with a slight head tilt so he looks mildly curious all the time! I brought him indoors when I first realised how poorly he but left his bunny friend outside in their hutch because he had started to mount our poorly bun (tiger), and I also wanted to make sure that I knew how much tiger was eating, drinking, pooing and weeing. We took tiger back to the vet to check that all was okay and I asked about putting him back outside and rebonding him. She advised that as he had been so poorly it would be better for him to be a house bunny and this is fine with us, but we are not sure whether to try and rebond him with our other bunny and have them both indoors. The vet said that rebonding them could take a long time but I forgot to ask whether it would increase the likelihood of tiger getting EC again.I wondered whether anyone here had any advice/experience they could share?
