Holly U/D back from vets

[Phill]

i couldnt feel it though, i can see it and when i tried to feel it all i could feel was fur

Sounds like a fat lump, you can see all of Rons and feel them, they sort of hard but sort of squishy at the same time. i would watch it and her for a few days, see if you notice any difference in her or any difference in the size of the lump, if you don't notice anything leave her for the time being, and if you do notice something have the vets take a look, they should be able to tell you if it's a fat lump just by feeling it at a consultation so it souldn't cost to much x

Oh donna *hugs* she will be fine. Plus liek i've said the vets should be able to tell you what it is or isn't just by having a feel of it. It could just be her fur getting stuck with water etc try not to worry please xxx If you want a chat you can PM me xxx

 

[KarenM]

Try not to stress. I'm pretty sure abcesses are hard, so if it was big enough to see I'm guessing you would definitely be able to feel it too, if that's what it was.

It's a struggle to do anything bun-related single-handedly for me too; I don't know how people who live alone cope - I find it hard enough to manage with an OH who is too scared of breaking the bunnies (or being bitten by one :lol::lol to hold on to them firmly enough.

I hope tomorrow puts your mind at rest and it's nothing too serious.

 

[donnamt]

well i just cried down the phone at poor Lou

she even offered to take Alvin and Holly if i ever feel i cant cope, i must sound like a right mess

Holly had a good groom on the 28th and was perfectly fine then so she doubts dental issues have suddenly happened in the last 3 weeks, she too thinks a fatty cyst thing in the dewlap if not just dribbled water from the moutains of water shes drinking.

what a stupid wreck i am. i think i might actually sleep tonight now though

 

[KarenM]

Awww, bless ya. I always feel better after a good cry. :lol::lol::lol:

 

[donnamt]

the lump seems to have spread right accross the middle.. i *think* i have spent two days panicing over the actual dewlap

Pearl didnt have one but lou said lops can have quite big ones even spayed

i took pics too but she started to get peed off i was interupting veg time.

i really hope ive just been a muppet and i havent got a ill bunny

 

[donnamt]

is this normal for a lop doe?

gosh i feel so newbie to buns again

 

[Collielover]

she looks like she has a sttart of her dew lop but I am not a vet so I think your right on getting her checked out

 

[Elena]

That looks likes Mischa's dewlap (yes he's a boy with a dewlap )

 

[donnamt]

i swear last night it was to the one side and was very lump like

 

[Elena]

Oh and I must say...

Squeeeeeeeee at little bun tongue!!

 

[doorkeeper]

It looks like she got her dewlap wet Donna. The tufts of fur sticking out of it are typical. But maybe a vet visit will make you feel better. I just wish you could get over here more easily, I'd check them over whenever you wanted then.
Try not to worry so much. As we discussed earlier you just need more rabbits to keep you so busy you don't have time
Must go feed the hoards....

 

[Rachel89]

this is Honeys

When it first started it looked like Hollys, I think its where shes got it wet too, as hers use to dry in off directions and I paniced alot . I went to the vets too as I thought she had a growth.
Try not to worry yourself too much, I'm sure she will be fine.

thankyou.. i do feel better now and im sure my vet is expecting a perfectly healthy bun too

no harm in getting the VHD done while we are there, if its ok to mix with the panacur... altho probably not id stress myself over that then :lol::lol:

 

[donnamt]

Squeeeeeeeee at little bun tongue!!

yeah soooo sweet

 

[Rachel89]

I went in crying to my vet thinking she was going to die

No harm in getting a health check too, then you will be able to totally settle your mind. I normally bring Honey along when any of mine need to go just incase as I'm worried something else will of gone wrong with her

 

[doorkeeper]

I would just do one thing at a time, get the panacur over with, leave a gap then do the VHD. I have seen too many rabbits get ill after VHD. We don't want you to really have a sick rabbit.
