At 1:00 today I was sitting here at my PC and I saw a sudden movement. All of a sudden my rabbit Heidi started thrashing around violently. She was all streched out and flinging around for about 1 minute. It seemed like an eternity. I bent down to calm her down and pick her up. She was barely breathing. I was scared to pick her up because it looked like she
had broken her neck. I did anyway because we obviously needed the vet immediately. She was covered in pee and wet poo. She had completely evacuated her bowels. The smell was horrendous. She was totally limp and her head kept falling backward. I got her wrapped in a towel and ran to the neighbours for a safe driver. I was/am a mess.
She died as soon as we were in the car. Not more than 5 or 6 mins since she had the seizure. What on earth happened there? She was fine this morning. She ate loads, groomed herself and Toby. What on earth could I have done differently? It was over in a matter of minutes with no warning.
She eats the same food as the other rabbits, she is very athletic and healthy. I am stunned tbh.
My poor beautiful coffee nose bun. It still not really sinking in.
