Updated 08/01/10 called emergency vets vibes please

Thanks for all your get well wishes. He is stuffing his face with pellets at the moment with his wifey bun flopped out beside him. :D
 
He's finished the hay I gave him earlier with a little help from his friend and is now tucking into a fresh load :D Lots of big boulder golden poos.
 
Noticed he'd been a bit quiet today but still eating hay, veg, pellets. I took him downstairs and he was making a throaty coughy noise.:( I called the emergency vet and they say to see how he is in the morning, he might have a respiratory infection because of lowered immune system because of the bloat or the bloat is coming back. I did do some tummy rubs and I am sure he was passing wind, unless it was the dog and he has done a nice big pile of poo but he's still not his usual self. Bunnies are such a worry especially when you are snowed in and can't get to my usual vet practice. :(
 
Oh no Emma :( I was so pleased he was better :( sending mega vibes.


The snow is awful round here too....one of the farmers gave me a lift home but I wish Id walked, it was absolutely terrifying :shock: really hope it thaws soon so that bunnies and their mummies can be less stressed.
 
What is his respiratory rate/effort like ?

He was making the noise more when I touched him its really hard to describe a bit like a croaky cough quite fast and then he seemed to calm. It wasn't constant. Would it be worth using my humidifier:?
