Hello tink, and welcome!

It sounds like he has a pretty bad injury to his back leg – what area are you in? We can suggest some vets to you, as you will probably want to take your bunny to a vet because injury to a back leg can become a life long injury without proper care.  Do you know what happened to his leg?  Is he grinding his teeth loudly or crying as if he is in pain? And is he eating anything? If he is not eating, he is most likely in a lot of pain and needs to go to a vet right away.  Let us know if you need some help finding some vet recommendations.  A good place to start is http://www.rabbit.org !

Good luck, and I hope your bunny starts feeling better!

Comments: He is the only one I could find in my area that believes in spaying females, and has done two successful spays for me. He really is a sweetheart…especially with fanatical bunny moms like me.

Comments: They have been really great with my two rabbits. They spayed my doe and castrated my buck with no problems. They are friendly, helpful and don’t mind when I turn up with suggestions, articles or other info I have learnt about rabbit medicine. All three of the vets are great and I now that I have moved I still travel the 50 mile round trip to use them.

Hi~ poor bunny. i’m in  the U.K too although i’m slightly further north than you (nr Newcastle to be exact!).  I found the best way to get a rabbit savvy vet was simply to phone them all up and ask them questions then compare and contrast.  It may take an hour but it’s worth it.  I found a great and very local vet, by doing just that.  Unfortuantely bunnies still seem to be a bit of an enigma here in the U.K.  The other thing to do would be to simply phone a local shelter (even RSPCA) and see if they can help – they will have dedicated vets they use and trust.

If you get benefits you can use the PDSA for free also if you have one near you.

good luck
