Look in your yellow pages for animal hospitals. Call any one listed until you get an answer and ask where your nearest 24 hour animal hospital is. Call them and ask who to take her to for immediate care. Even if you find a listing for dogs and cats, they will probably be able to help in an emergency-or be able to determine if it is an emergency yet from her symptoms.

oh no! Were you able to find anywhere else to take your bunny? That doesn’t sound good at all that she is crawling, she must be in some kind of pain. Is there anywhere else that you can take her?

Oh, no I would be furious! This definitely sounds like an emergency. I don’t know where you live but maybe there is a rabbit savvy vet near you.

Here is a link to vet listiings. Now I know these may not be emergency vets, but many times on the after-hours regarding the vet’s office provides their recommendation for emergency care. So it might be worth a try.

I am fairly sure that cold ears are not good sign, but I do not think it is a sign of ear infection. I think it is more likely a sign that she perhaps is having stasis, or something else is causing her to feel sick that is now causing her to not eat. You are doing a good job taking care of her though, and a good job monitoring her symptoms. I think it is definitely a good idea to get her to your vet ASAP – explain that it is an emergency and the emergency vet wouldn’t help you and I hope they can get you in right away. I hope she is feeling better very soon!

Hi,
I don’t know where you live so I’m not sure which time zone you’re in. When I read that she was hanging in there this morning it was almost 8AM EST, so I’m hoping that you were already at the vet. Let’s hope she is being seen as I write this. Hang in there – your vet will understand the emergency nature of her health and hopefully she’ll be diagnosed and treated before I even hit reply. Let us know what the vet said when you get a minute.

OH my gosh. I hope they can help get her back to normal. I would be so worried I would be sitting in the vets office at 8 am waiting til someone saw bun. I bet you are sooo worried too. Gosh what a long day this will be for you both. All 3 of you. Gosh best vibes coming your way

please keep us posted. i am sending out major “be well, Shadow” vibes!

I’m glad to hear your rabbit is O.K. sometimes this is a sign of a stroke – more specifically when the left rear leg is dragging. Other things I thought of were spinal cord damage or some type of infection interfereing with signals from the brain. Did the vet give you anything? Fiber is really important and papaya is usually just really a preventative that sometimes works and sometimes doesn’t. How is the appetite?

how is sweet Shadow this morning, is she continuing to feel better?

I’m very glad to hear Shadow is doing better! It may have been gas or some other kind of tummy trouble that passed. Has she been doing well with eating her hay and her healthy veggies? (I don’t have to ask about treats because I know all bunnies gobble those right up!)

This is a good sign that things are passing through, but keep a close eye on her. Usually stasis isn’t caused by a “fur ball”, but the fur ball is caused by the slowing of the tract, and the slowing of the gi tract is usually caused by something else, some other underlying problem. So when vets say “fur ball”, that worries me a bit because “fur balls” are not the cause, but the result of something else. So hopefully it was just a bout of gi stasis that is getting better (sometimes there is a reason like diet, environment – like too hot, illness, stress, and sometimes there just doesn’t seem to be a reason and it clears up with care)

Sending out continued healing vibes! Keep us updated

Is Shadow shedding at all, when was the last time you gave a good grooming to get out all the excess fur? This may help some with the being over-heated issue.

i’m VERY glad to hear that it sounds like she’s on the mend! thanks for keeping us updated.

wow she is better what a relief. great and was probably too hot for her that day. hmmm. you just never know do you
