Please Note - Medical Advice
Please keep in mind that posts on this forum are from members of the public sharing personal opinions. It is not a replacement for qualified medical advice from a veterinarian. Many illnesses share similar symptoms but require different treatments. A medical exam is necessary for an accurate diagnosis, without which appropriate treatment cannot be given.
You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions. Even non prescription drugs can do harm if given inappropriately.
We are very grateful to members who take time to answer other members questions, but please do be clear in your replies that you are sharing personal experience and not giving instructions on what must be done.
Urgent Medical Advice: If you need, or think you might need, urgent medical advice you should contact a vet. If it is out of working hours phone your vet's normal number and there should be an answer phone message with instructions on what to do.
The vets have admitted her because although I tried and think I got some food down her in early hours I just don't feel comfortable doing it and don't want to stress her if I'm doing it wrong. They are going to do it all and let me know how she gets on.
She didn't seem concerned about her eye although it was more open when the vet was handling her it was all wrinkly.
Will give u an update as soon as I have one

I hope that Luna improves during the day at the vets. I used to hate having to syringe-feed. It seemed to either explode out of the syringe all over the rabbit or become completely blocked in the syringe and wouldn't move. I still can't manage it without getting some on my clothing.
Thank you everyone for your vibes and help it's been greatly appreciated.
Luna has just come back home and is looking soo much better and is having a good munch at the moment. She's even moving about nicely
I'm £160 lighter so cannot eat for the next couple of months [emoji14] but worth it and know it would have been much more if it went to an emergency
