    You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions.

I have to say, I'm with sdf76 on that one, again, no offence to anyone!! I've just read it all, it's not always easy to drag young kids out of bed either. Hopefully Princess is ok!!! Good luck!!!! xx

I hope Princess is ok?

I know members are really well-meaning but personally I would never leave my children with a stranger off the internet -even for a sick rabbit, so I hope they would understand if you didnt take up their offer.:)
I do hope you have managed to get veterinary advice today- (hopefully from a different vet who knows the difference between boy and girl buns!!)- sometimes a practice has both rubbish vets and really good ones so maybe someone else will be on duty this time? or find another practice?

Can anyone on here recommend a rabbit-savvy vet for this new member in her area?
-sue:)

What area are you in? I can recommend a vet in gloucester?

To be fair, neither would I, but by someone offering, that at least gives the person a different option, even if its one they discount.

I'm still hopefully awaiting an update.

Also just wanted to say that I think we all appreciate none of the options were easy, but the more we suggest, the more options there are, whether or not they are viewed as feasible or not, that's all :)

does any one know where i can get a cheap hutch from?
 
:wave: Thats brilliant, I am sooo pleased for you, nice to hear good news, well done to you aswell. Sorry I am quite far away I think with regards helping with hutch I suppose ebay might be a good starting place but, I am sure you will get loads of advice, best of luck and best wishes to you :)

You welcome, just glad it was a good outcome, you never know with rabbits.

Put aonther hutch on that post. 8ft wowee, especially if it goes for that price :)
 
That's fantastic news. I'm glad there are no more. If she did not eat the after birth and she does not show any signs of infection in the next few days (which can happen if its retained) then it might become obvious when she is spayed because things like that can fossilise in their uterus. HOPEFULLY though she just ate it.

As well as ebay, try freecycle too.

I'm really glad you managed to take her and she currently seems ok :)
 
not having any luck in a hutch :roll:
but we've put mario in his hutch and let princess out for some frush air and she ran right for the hutch
unsure if she wants mario or the hutch
but its soooo nice to she her jumping about again
ive tied gumtree,preloved and free cycle to no luck on ebay now but all cages near me dont run out for a few days :shock:
 
I would try emailing them, explain the situation and ask if they would be willing to end early, esp on those without bids. It sometimes works and sometimes doesn't.

Sent you a pm, with another option :D

Glad to hear your bun is well.

Good luck with finding another hutch. Please remember if you are taking a second hand hutch you will need to give it a thorough cleaning to ensure you will not be passing on any nasties to your rabbits. A thorough clean with 10% bleach followed by a good rinse and dry will be in order as the usual pet sprays are not effective on everything. A steam cleaner is also very useful if you have one.
 
Good luck for Wednesday. I have one of mine going in tomorrow (well, I say mine, but really a foster), so feel the anxiety you feel. Hopefully Mario will be fine and it will go smoothly. I've written an article about before, during and after a spay/neuter, would you like me to PM it to you?

You're doing a great job for them both :)
