Hi All
I had a call from the vet yesterday as she knew I was looking to start fostering. Someone had taken in a wild baby bunny that their cat had brought in. He has been at the vets for two weeks and is now approx 5-6wks old. However, he has some nerve damage to his front leg, due to the cat having him.
He has had his myxi jab yesterday and is due to have his VHD in four weeks when he should be around 10wks old. He needs three sessions of physio on his leg each day and the vet has gone through this with me. There is a possibility that this may aid his leg but only time will tell.
So, this little guy is now my first foster! He is now all comfortable in a hutch and is currently being fed on Burgess pellets (as this is what vet was giving him), plenty of hay and water.
As Im a newbie to this and the fact that he is a wild bun, I was just wondering if there is anything else I need to be doing?
Regards, Ange
