WEll. Hubby wanted to go to Orlando 2 weeks with me. There is lady who speaks arabic not a lot of english she agreed to feed Cotton for 2 weeks etc. 2 weeks is too long to leave Cotton.
4-5 maybe 7 days ok. 2 weeks no way. that rhymes lol.
Ok the neice in orlando does not want Cotton in her house even in a small cage. I would not let him loose in her house and would take him with me when I go places and let him run and stretch his legs outside.
So hubby said take him with us we stay at mosque. There was a place we stay at in 2 days never came thru I took both pet carriers and some Cotton supplies simethicone mint flavor benedril in case of ant bite chammomile to help relax him. The cage wouldn’t fit in the car with his brothers fruit plants we bought for hiim upon his brothers request.
I had him in big cabrio pet carrier. I had it covered when people showed up for prayer 5x a day and lectures etc. I would let him run loose after morning prayer and after last nite prayer. I tied his leash to pet carrier and he saw hubby shadow and ran dragging pet carrier then he stopped. I had all this hay to clean up. His poop to pick up after letting him run loose. OK no problem.
Then he quit eating. So hubby took me to get him greens. HE would only eat that and his poops got real small. The chammomile didn’t help his appetite but helped him relax. I would rub his tummy and pet him he would tooth purr.
Hubby tried to find me ride home cuz his car acted up when we almost got to orlando and mechanic said do not drive home it will overheat. So he had to stay and get it fixed.
A friend who lives near me showed up after praying and crying some thinking if he dies its all my fault I should have stayed home. Her and her husband agreed to take me home.
We are home as of Sunday nite. Cotton is eating better ate some pellets some hay not a whole lot but doing so much better. Else he would go to vet. This happened once before. His poops are looking larger I saw some in his litterboxes and his bedding by his pellets so he is eating pellets now.
This rabbit is running my life. I had fun when I went with hubby a few years ago and neighbor took care of Cotton. I think I will let egyptian lady take care of him if we go for a few days. She wanted to come to see how to take care of him which my other neighbor never did. He lost weight while I was gone too. I don’t know what to do when we want to go somewheres. I can’t bring him and stay at mosque with him he gets sick. I am upset with neice she won’t let me take him. I can’t see why not. The sis in law says no problem but is neices house not hers. I want to go. He doesn’t eat good no matter I go and take him or I go and leave him.
There were pellets left when I came home when neighbor was taking care of him but she told me he was eating good. Maybe she misunderstood how much to feed him. I left a note on his feeding and care and she never read it. It was never moved. I can show this egyptian lady and Fouad can translate a note for her from english to arabic. And she wanted to come see so I can show her. Big plus. Two weeks was too long. Plus car was acting up.
Anyway any advice? Sorry this is so long.
