I've let Fudge this morning in his run.. I hope I've done the right thing :? I kept him in last night it he relaxed on his vet bed & heatpad..
As I went to see him this morning he ran out in his enclosure(bless him)
Do you think i've done the right thing ?
He's had a few poos not loads but some, he's had something to eat aswell not a huge amount but some..
 
is the grass wet? If so I probably wouldnt let him out as it could cause problems with the incision site.

Also running around vigorously might not be a good idea :?
Perhaps you could just shut him in the playhouse? See what other people say.
 
If he's anything like my rabbits he won't be running around exercising, mine just snooze the day away, so hopefully he'll be ok.
 
He came outside for a 5 mins or so then went back to his heatpad..
I've just gone & bought one from the pet shop so hes now got 2 heatpads under his tum :D
The one is only borrowed though so I was always going to need one.
 
I would aim to keep him warm and rested today. You dont want to let him get too cool after being in the warm at the moment, otherwise he may drop his blood pressure. If he is in a shed out of the direct cold he should be fine. Just keep and eye on the intake and output :D
 
Thanks, I'll keep him inside now nice & warm... He seems a happy bunny since he's come home he's letting me stroke him more :) I'm sure it's because he doesn't feel great though & can't be bothered to move away from me..
He's eating apple,pear cabbage leaves :D ..
