Thank you

Can I ask, how long should I wait before I let Flopsy dig in soil? She’s got two plastic boxes connected with a tunnel in which she digs but I’ve covered them now because of her wound. She’s desperate to get in them, she’s trying to find the way in but I don’t want the soil to get in her wound...

Thanks all, Flopsy nibbled on some herbs and I syringe fed her again. She seems a bit more comfortable than before. Brave girl :love:

Yes, I was given metacam in pre-filled syringes. 0.3ml in each syringe. I’m to give her one in the morning and one at night. She’s 1.6kg

Thank you all. She’s not eating or drinking at all so I syringe fed her last night and this morning and I will do again around 11am. She’s moving a little though and she passed a few poops.

Thanks very much. I’m glad that’s normal

Thanks for your reply. She’s now home. She’s looking really rough :sad: Her eyes are wet, do they put something on her eyes during the surgery? Why do you think they’re wet?

Hi all, my little Flopsy is coming home at 5pm after being spayed this morning. I’ve read to keep the rabbit warm post surgery but given the hot temperatures at the moment (26C here), should I cover up with a blanket or is it not needed. It will be 12C at night. Thanks

Hi all, I can’t get wood pellet litter anywhere at the moment. Seemingly caused by the war in Ukraine - at least that’s the info I’ve found online. What alternative litter can I use? Thanks :)

Thanks both for your reply. I think the groomer pulled off a chunk of his fur by mistake. Because it wasn’t there before the groom (or I’ve not noticed it). It’s looking nice a pale today (looks less red in reality than on the photo). The fur around the area is not wet and he doesn’t seem...

Hi all, Benji’s got a bald patch on his leg :sad: It was noticed by a groomer today. No other symptoms. Should I be worried?

Hi, I was reading recently about “barbering” which supposedly rabbits do to each other in a bid for dominance. Do you think this might be why she’s pulling his fur from the same spot over and over? Glad to hear he’s doing better and almost healed now :love:

Thanks all :love:

I thought I’d share this picture of Flopsy showing how much she has come since her awful kidney infection :cry: I’m so happy she’s back to her full health :love: https://ibb.co/ct208Yt
