I wonder if any one can give me some advice. I had 4 rabbits all rescues, Finn was a dwarf lop-eared rabbit. He was in a awful condition when we got him, we nursed him back to health, he did have a long term problem with his eye (discharge and fur falling out under eye) vets could not find out the cause. He was other wise heathy. He was a lovely gentle rabbit, a real softy.
He was 4 years old when he suddenly died 1month ago, he was fine running around eating and drinking, one hour later he is was lying dead by at bottom of Cage.
Strange thing is he was limp and floppy riggamortous never set in.
We spoke to vets they didn't recommend doing a autopsy, they said it would be very expensive and unlikely to find out the cause of death.
So we didn't get a autopsy done.
Today another of my rabbits Peter a lion head rabbit has died. He was fine a few hours ago running around eating and drinking fine. And now I've just found him lying dead on bottom of Cage ridged.
He was only 2 1/2. I don't understand it.
I'm devistated, he was such a lovely cheeky bunny, he loved to explore.
Why do my rabbits keep dying. I'm afraid my other 2 rabbits are going to die. I look after them well, clean them out twice a day, feed them mainly hay and some pellets, fresh veg.
All my rabbits are indoor rabbits incase this helps.
Any one got any ideas as to why my rabbits died. Should I get a autopsy done this time, does any one know how much a autopsy costs.
Any advice much appreciated,
