I got a young Continental Giant last year, after the anniversary of the passing of my pair. I didn't talk about him - Bramble AKA MEGABUN - much on here because he was bought from a breeder and I'm well aware of the general opinion (feel free to judge, but not today); but he was a welcome addition to our already quite large family. Here he is after he destroyed the cat flap:
He was vaccinated over Christmas, neutered last month and I've been on the look out for a larger lady to join him in the next couple of months.
Unfortunately, however, he stopped eating yesterday afternoon. I rushed him straight to the vet where he was given painkillers and infacol, and I managed to syringe feed a little pellet & pineapple juice mush into him twice yesterday evening, but he passed away overnight.
He was only 8 months old and I am utterly, utterly distraught. I've only just started coming to terms with the loss of one of our rescue piggies over Christmas and I feel like I'm jinxed.
He's going in for postmortem this morning. I can't really afford it but I am so bereft.. I need answers or closure or something. I don't know what I'm going to do without him. He was such a mischevious, naughty bunny but he brightened up my days.
