At this point any poops at all are a good sign. She’s so lucky to have you! Keep her eating anything you can get her to take and I’m hoping for another update soon with more poops in it 🙂

Oh, I love this idea! 😀 It looks so comfy and cozy, definitally need pics of her in it! 😉 Unfortunately, my ladies chew and pee on fabric. So, it wouldn’t work so great here… 😥

UPDATE ON PIPPIN

Shes still with us and at present munching on wet dandelions, I’m still very worried about her poop output as it’s still a very small amount and little tiny pieces I did however manage to break one into two so there must be some softness coming just wish she would do more. Her breathing seems different as if it’s not such hard…[Read more]

This is most certainly a conversation you will want to have with your vet, and possibly look around for another professional opinion if you can.

Unlike in other animals, rabbits create a very thick, viscous pus, so lancing it likely wont actually clean it out and the problem will recour. Another issue is that on the surface it looks small, but…[Read more]

Fenugreek is good, but should be fed in moderation as it’s actually used as an appetite stimulant in humans (and small animals),  and can help with weight gain in skinny rabbits.

I understand this is a very difficult situation. There are various quality of life assesment tools for pets that you can find if you google, I can’t recommend any one in particular.

It will of course still always be a judgement call.

If space is the issue maybe you should consider moving…? Like if that’s a deal breaker and he’s willing to move out over it maybe you guys can just move together to a different place? Keeping in mind that the bunnies will need a space of their own? But also maybe he should get over the stigma that bunny poop is gross? They have pretty dry poop…[Read more]

Eating isn’t really optional, he gets hungry so he eats. I wouldn’t use that to gauge his happiness. Quality of life to me is determined by wether or not they engage in things around them in a positive way, show interest or even excitement. Then I weigh that against the negatives, like pain etc. In other words, are the more good moments than bad…[Read more]

@LBJ10 I have been using hammocks since Pacey (I remember everyone thought I was insane back then giving a rabbit a hammock lol). But she is way too big for the hammocks I make and I saw this at the store and was like AHA! It’s working great so far. I don’t think it would if she liked to chew fabric or pee on fabric.

Yay, that’s great! Sounds like she’s on the mend. Well done! 😀

That’s such a great idea! Why didn’t I think of that?

I’m so happy I can’t sleep ( it’s 2.45) I know we’re not through it yet but she’s just taken water and cc out of a spoon I offered her she seems a little more herself it will be about 5.45 I’ll offer her cc again and more fluids although she’s nibbling wet-ish hay a wet greens no where near enough I just want to see a good output of poops. She’s…[Read more]

Thank you for your input, I truly appreciate it. You see, when feeding, aside from the syringe, he still eats his carrots, apples and collard greens. Today he ate so much of his collard greens. My point being,to euthanize him when he seem to have a lot of life in him, but it might just be me being delusional. He pees and poop normal. He just can’t…[Read more]
