Isnt he thin though now, I am hoping apple, toast, and lots of treats will help him put back the weight he has lost. I think that's why he sits by the fire, for warmth and comfort. They do have blankets and fleeces in the run for sleeping on and the heating is on all the time
 
It’s tricky to see on the photos but I know what you mean. They can lose weight so quickly. I’m sure that he will put weight on soon, does he like readigrass, as that is good for putting on weight, I’ve also fed junior pellets to active rabbits that struggled to keep weight on too.

Thank you, I will look at readigrass.
 
Lovely photos :)

We've been using junior pellets (usual brand) to help feed up our Blossom who had lost lots of weight (as mentioned by Zoobec, up thread). Shes doing amazing now x
 
The readigrass arrived - Dillon does not like it :( but Cuthbert is yumming it up :) Took them both back to the vets today for Dillon to have his last stitch out and they were discharged with a clean bill of health. Thank you so much for your help and support with my boys especially MightyMax and Tonibun but everyone has made a really stressful time more manageable, thank you thank you , thank you

You're really welcome :)

I've had that problem in castrated males and I really felt for you all. Especially when there were limited options to recovery ..

I'm so glad they have now been given a clean bill of health - super news!!
