I'm going to look up the symptoms as I'm looking after next door's rabbit. Hop the wee one gets better soon.

When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it.
If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant. -
Today's update. He is still here just sitting around and not eating. Still giving fluids every three hours. Sorry to say there doesn't seem to be any improvement.Gardening requires a lot of water - most of it in the form of perspiration. Lou Erickson, critic and poetComment

aww, but if he's not getting any worse - there may be hope yet. At least you are managing to get some fluids down him. It may take a while?

Today's bulletin.
Still hanging on in there. His breathing seems a little less laboured and one eye looks a little less swollen but still a very sick bunnie. Still giving fluids but am going to try porridge made of pellets soaked in water. He did manage a couple of thin shavings of carrot yesterday. Not out of the wood yet.Gardening requires a lot of water - most of it in the form of perspiration. Lou Erickson, critic and poetComment

I think that we could say the patient is comfortable. He is led sniffly and seems to be sitting a bit more normally. Last night he got a bit active for the first time but he still is not eating and weight loss is beginning to be obvious. I am going to the Vet today to see if they have any Rabbit Complan and something suitable to give it to him.
I am vaguely optimistic.Last edited by roitelet; 14-04-2015, 09:07 AM.Gardening requires a lot of water - most of it in the form of perspiration. Lou Erickson, critic and poetComment

Necessity being the mother of invention and not wanting to drive to the vet I devised the patient rabbit feeder. One syringe with the barrel of a pippett rammed on the end and a porridge of rabbit pellets, carrot, Apple and cabbage. Shoved the end in the rabbits mouth and it works.Gardening requires a lot of water - most of it in the form of perspiration. Lou Erickson, critic and poetComment

Would it be worth adding a little honey or sugar just to give Mann a bit of glucose to help with the healing process?I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work. Thomas A. Edison

Good idea. He has had sugar and a spot of salt in the water but I will add a little honey to the porridge.Originally posted by Lumpy View PostGardening requires a lot of water - most of it in the form of perspiration. Lou Erickson, critic and poetComment

Today he seems much the same no better, no worse. From what I have read this evil virus takes two weeks to either get better or........ The porridge made with rabbit pellets was still lumpy and difficult to give with a syringe so today on the menu is rolled oats, dandelion,spinach,bramble tips honey and butternut squash. We will just have to see how that goes down.Gardening requires a lot of water - most of it in the form of perspiration. Lou Erickson, critic and poetComment
