Well my friend's rabbit was put to sleep today....
I asked what was wrong with it as I know it has'nt had any vaccinations this year due to them getting a puppy they made the excuse they couldn't afford to vaccinate it,:evil: where we live it is surrounded by fields and wild rabbits!!
anyway... the rabbit was a lop and was apparently deaf and was 8 -9 yrs old (apparently) he lived with 2 guinea pigs..... in a small hutch inside a run, the hutch was hardly ever cleaned and reeked!!! :evil:
over the christmas holidays he said it was looking 'old' and 'not doing anything' and they brung it in and then put it out again, I was going to say this is bad for them but didn't want to get involved :roll:
He has been saying the past year it will die soon because it is 'old' it annoyed me how he would say ' its going to die soon' - Just because its old doesn't mean it will die. :evil:
so today I asked him on facebook why he was put to sleep, He said his dad went out to see them and he didn't look well, he wasn't moving and when his dad touched him he would go fidgety ..
so they took it to the vets and apparently there was nothing they could do and had to be pts.
I suggested it could be VHD and sent them the link of info about it...
He replyed the vet said he was old...
Hmmmmm what do you think?????? :?
