    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.

Doughnut - loss of back legs - anyone else's rabbit had this?

Doughnut has good days and bad days. Sometimes wet, sometimes dry. But at the weekend I was in the kitchen then someone came to join me! So cute. She always used to follow me everywhere.

This morning she was dry again after being wet on Sunday and having her bum bath!. I'm taking her to see the specialist weekly now, continuing with all the meds and the laser and will see what happens. She's happy and eating but nowhere near as mobile as she used to be. As long as she can hop around a little I will continue with everything.

It sounds as if she is coping well enough at the moment and I hope she can continue to do so for as long as possible xx
 
Pleased to hear that little Doughnut is still getting around ok, long may it continue. Keep it up beautiful girl xx
 
She's having weekly laser sessions at the moment. Still hopping around and joining me in the kitchen for treats! Because she can't really beg now she either gets as high as she can lifting her head up or sits on my food so I notice her.

She's still wet on and off so putting barrier cream on her a lot.

That is good news. Xxx
 
She's actually been dry for a few days! I was sitting on the sofa and a little bunny came bouncing over to me. She's so sweet. She can't beg any more but she lifts her head so high up and I keep telling her not to bother as she will get a treat :)

Haha I have been seeing Richard too who is also brilliant, he's done some of her laser treatment. Seeing Mark this week and just paid for another 5 laser treatments. I'll say to him about dropping it down to 3 weeks to see how she gets on as normally it's a monthly maintenance. Sure he'll have a little cuddle. She stamped her foot at the nurse but not at Mark or Richard. She likes the men lol.
