This might be a long post sorry. I’ve lost 4 rabbits in the last year, 2 of them were unrelated to anything but on two occasions I’ve brought a new rabbit in only for it to die around 2/3 weeks later, no sign of illness etc. I looked into having a post mortem done on the last rabbit but the vet seemed reluctant on the phone and said that as I didn’t know exactly when the rabbit had died it may not be doable and also he said it may not give me any answers anyway. I was quite upset and had some other things on my mind too so I let it go but I decided to not get any more rabbits as I couldn’t work out how they’d died. I still have Jelly and she lives alone in the shed but I don’t spend much time with her, being a house rabbit probably isn’t an option really. She’s got a big shed and is fed, watered and cuddled and also goes outside daily when the weathers good (I’m trying to work out a way to attach a run to the shed) but I just feel like a life alone isn’t fair on her. Shes only 2, maybe 3. I can’t bear to rehome her but I’d be keeping her for selfish reasons, and I’m not sure what to do thank you if you got this far!
