HELP EMERGENCY

[Lacycrow]

I am HORRIFIED!!! We have a cat that used to be a barn cat. We keep her locked in our bedroom, but this morning my boyfriend slammed the door accidentally and the suction caused our bedroom door to open while I was sleeping.

I woke up to her running back inside KNOWING SHE DID SOMETHING WRING. I freaked out and checked and my poor baby boy hasn’t stopped stomping for over half an hour! Is there a way to check to see if he’s been injured internally? I’m making my boyfriend take him to the vet when he comes home. I could KILL both him and the cat. I have never been this livid at her. Last time she got out and saw the bunny the first time she chased it and tried clawing at it like a prey-toy through his cage. My blood is boiling.

I’d say handle your rabbit and see if there is bleeding or flinching behavior. Your rabbit may have been able to just run away, and i hope that’s the case, so the stomping is your rabbit still on guard for danger. Thumping is a bodily movement so it could be a sign your rabbit isn’t in pain as well?

Also make sure your rabbit is eating and pooping as normal after this stressor.

Definitely check bun over well for injuries. Our lab made it upstairs and into the buns’ room once. Didn’t go beyond the doorway (buns were behind dog crates with xpens attached), but scared the buns pretty bad. The room looked like it had “snowed” litter and my boy (who rarely thumps) thumped for over an hour.
