Just cant believe it think she has bladder stones :(

My GOD! Thanks for PM!

You were totally right with your instincts about her, well done. I can't believe she was passing that. No wonder she was acting as she was!
 
From my experience you rarely tend to hear of a stone being passed, normally they are identified in the bladder. I don't know much about stones to be honest so can't say much more than that. But to hear of a bunny passing a stone, let alone getting a stone that size out of her urethra must have been agony for the poor little girl and it must still sting now. Ouchies!

That is one brave bunny.
 
i know i couldnt beleive it when i saw it, my first thoughts was its a massive poop:shock: but when it fell to the floor i was like no way..

i washed it and bounced it in the sink just to be sure and it defo a stone:lol::lol:

it was half in her and half out... she has had some metacam, but passed wee ok and the colour was normal a tiny stone was in about pin head size, just hoping touch wood its the last of them,, god knows how long she has suffered for with it:cry:
 
the vets have called me and she is going in on wed morning for an x-ray to check there isnt anymore stones thankfully she isnt having a GA they said they will do it while she is conscious...

but she is defo running around more just been in the shed and Rosie and hubby are running around in their tunnel...

defo a lot more active...:):):)
 
Good luck for Wednesday :) I'd be interested to know the outcome, and if there are more, I wonder if you might get a copy of the x-ray? Some people have x-rays e-mailed to them. Just a though, stuff like this fascinates me :lol: We marvelled at her over tea tonight. Good convo for tea time.
 
:lol: hubby was shocked at the size :lol:

poor girl,,

i will ask them email me a copy then will put it on here...
 
here are some pictures of Rosie, she is doing really well and eating really well
she just needs to put some weight on now, after talking to a Rodentologist we have decided to hold off from the x-ray as well dont want to put her through anymore trauma, she seems really well now and is running a round her shed, but if she drops any weight or her behavior changes she will be straight up the vets...

her weight is 1,598g and does feel really bony on her back end which in guinea pigs is a sign of bladder stones, now that she has passed it and still on metacam and seprin and her appetite is really good now im hoping she will put some weight on soon! what is a good ideal weight in a rabbit of 12mths female ??? xxx
