The Plumpkin Thread - Spay Tuesday 12th

So sorry for not updating this sooner everyone. As TheThreeB's predicted, I have been crazy busy. As I had to take Plumps to the vet three times last week (and pick her up after her op) I've been trying to catch up on my work and other stuff I've got behind on from such a broken up week.

So regarding Plumpkin:

The vet who operated on her (a different vet this time) said she had a long spur sticking into her tongue on the other side of her mouth this time. That was filed right back. She said the other side of the mouth where two teeth were previously extracted were looking good, and that she's not sure if the spur she had to file has shot up since or if the other vet never filed it in the first place, because the focus seemed to be on the one side of the mouth (which I think was the worst)

Since coming home she has been on metacam and ranitidine (today is her last day on medication). I've already seen vast improvements in her mood and agility. In fact, I came down at 7.00am this morning to find that she had somehow managed to open the latch on her hutch door from the inside and was enjoying some time in her run :lol: (there are two entrances to her hutch and one of them is a bunny business hexagon panel that I attached to the side with a little metal door with a latch. To open the door you have to flip the latch up and slide it across. Plumps is a clever bunny!)

She came running up to me and then proceeded to do laps around the run as if to say 'Look what I can do!'. It's the first time I've seen her running without her legs looking really stiff. She's even attempting to nibble grass now, although I'm not sure how much of it she's actually mananging to eat. I'm giving her those fibre sticks that MM recommended and she loves those.

Plumps wants to say hello to all of the lovely people on RU and thank you billions for the good vibes. It's hard to say if the worst if over just yet, but for today at least, I'm feeling really happy with her progress :)

Thank you for your PM :wave:

Fibafirst sticks are a hit here too - I'm so glad she likes them :)
I am sure they will be good for her and her teeth.

It's a beautiful day and you have worked wonders with your Plumps. More vibes from me :love:
 
Brilliant. She must be so releived to to have a spur sticking into her tongue!

She is so pretty. I love white rabbits. I have two.
 
I just wanted to update everyone and let you know that Plumpkin is thriving.

She's hopping around, her eyes are bright, she's eating plenty (even nibbling grass here and there) - visibly she has put on weight - I'm so happy for her. Hopefully it's ownwards and upwards from here, with the outcome of getting to live with Beatrice and Hamilton where she can be snuggled all of the time <3

Thank you again everyone, for your constant support and well wishes. It feels like a very cruel world for animals sometimes, but Plumpkin is one of the lucky ones, and I'm so grateful to have this little character in my life.

This is such a good update :D

I just looove her close up :love:
 
Wonderful update and I've been hoping every day that Plumpkin has been improving. Clearly she has and she is looking simply gorgeous. I love the 1 ear up 1 ear down pose. Great to read that she is eating well and she is thriving with the love you are giving her. She must feel so free and she is adjusting to that beautifully. Its a wonderful update and I'm looking forward to more as you get time. She is my favorite bun follow. She's just lovely.:love:
 
What a wonderful update! Glad to see some good news this morning. Keep up the good work! Xx
