Awww Mikeymoo - now thats no way to think is it - I'm sure your little treasure will be fine and be home wanting loads of TLC later.

Now no wearing the carpet out while he's gone :wink:

Awwww - that tickled me the thought of your little lad being packed off with his Tedd - awwww Bless thats lovely.

Strange that the Vets would say he shouldn't have been feed though as I always thought that with rabbits and the way their system is that they can continue to have normal food during the morning of an op :!: -

Give us a yell when he's back with you for cuddles - I'm sure he will be just fine :wink:
 
They can and should be fed right up to the op. They can't vomit, which is why cat and dogs etc are starved pre op. Also the anaesthetic slows the guts down and if they have been starved prior to surgery aswell then they are more likely to get gut stasis post op. So you did right by leaving him food. I'm sure he will be just fine and back to normal before you know it. Let us know when he is home :D
 
Hiya! Im sure the little darling will be fine! :D

My vet also said that Sophie could eat right up until the op bkz of the fact that rabbits can't vomit.

Thats sweet though, sending him off with his teddy! :lol:
 
I remeber reading that they could be fed right up until the op so i made sure he had plenty of food available last night.

He loves his little bugs bunny - snuggles up to him at night :roll:
 
AWWW thats cute :D :D

Im sure he will be fine, Little louis has a little cuddly toy lion (hes a lionhead :lol: ) he cuddles up to much to Twinkles disgust as she would rather he snuggled up to her and she stamps her foot at him if he pays his teddy too much attention :lol: :lol:

I can definately say that soft cuddle toys go down a storm - Zac is a single bun but very much bonded :lol: :lol: with me :lol: :lol: but he loves his soft toys - he has a Teddy, A Bugs Bunny and several other little cuddle bunns and Zac normally takes in turn to groom them all when I'm not around :lol: :lol: - So I definately think Sophie deserves a treat :wink:

Hey Mikeymoo - you were spot on with the feeding then - well done you :D :D :wink:
