Monty is sick. No idea what it is yet. He didn’t eat his morning food but that isn’t really new he is more of a nibbler throughout the day. I let him out and he acted fine and was doing binkies and just generally being a brat. Around 6pm he was in the living room with me digging in some boxes but 10 minutes or so later I noticed he wasn’t getting into trouble and went looking for him. I found him hiding behind my bed. The thing about Monty is he has never hid even as a baby he didn’t hide. I lured him out with a raisin which he ate. But then he ran back to his cage and sat on top of his box. That too is nothing out of the ordinary since that is usually where you will find him.
I gave him veggies and knew something was wrong when he didn’t immediately start eating them. So I prepared for scratches and bites on my hands to check his stomach. I really knew something was wrong when he let me pick him up and do whatever I wanted with him. So I packed him up and took him to the vet. He let the vet do whatever she wanted to him. Monty hates being touched in any way that isn’t petting his nose. But never lets the vet touch him without fighting.
So far nothing has been found. No obvious infection, no stasis, no teeth issues, no injuries, nothing. Blood was drawn and he is currently being kept there with fluids running.
Poor fuzzy Monty! Sending get better vibes to out adorable carnivorous friend ! {{{{{{Monty}}}}}}
Oh wow, that it concerning. Especially since he normally wants to take your hand off. LOL
Hope he feels better soon. Just make sure he bites the vet and not you.
Vibes for Monty! Hope he gets better soon ![]()
Sending “Get Well” vibes for Monty Bunny.
Poor baby. He’s a tough little guy though. We’ve all got our fingers and paws crossed for him.
(((((Monty)))))
I hope they find out what it is soon, and that he gets better fast. ![]()
Oh no! Vibes for little Monty.
((((((((Monty)))))))
Oh no, Monty
Is it possible it could be a blockage?
((Vibes for Monty))
(((((((( VIBES MONTY))))))))
Keep us updated. I hope he will get better soon!
There hasn’t been much of a change. He will be staying at the vets office until he is well enough to come home. He is currently getting an ultrasound since his stomach is a little tender today. He was put on pain meds last night since he was grinding his teeth a bit. But as of now there is still no clue as to what is wrong with him. The vet told me he showed a little interest in a piece of banana but still refused it.
Oh no…poor Monty
my daughter and I were just talking about him last night because we haven’t heard from you in awhile. I wish it were under better circumstances.
We’ll keep you both in our thoughts and prayers for his full and quick recovery. (((((((((Vibes for Monty)))))))) xx
Just saw your last post. Have they checked his blood glucose? If that is high he may have a blockage.
More vibes on the way. Poor bub
xx
The vet just called. The ultrasound showed no signs of a blockage. His glucose levels were checked yesterday when I took him in and were normal. His heartbeat is abnormal and that is being looked into now.
He is declining. He is no longer responding to any type of touch and just sits hunched in the corner of the cage.
I am so sorry to hear this. Poor Monty.
Hang in there Sonn. {{{{{{Monty}}}}}}
((((VIBES)))) for Monty!
Oh no
Prayers being lifted for wee Monty. Come on, lad. (((((((((((((Monty))))))))))))) xx
Anything new Sonn? ((((MONTY))))
~~~LOTS AND LOTS OF VIBES!~~~
I’m very sorry to see this. You’ve been through so much with your bunnies. (((((Feel Better Monty))))
Will be thinking of you both.
{{{Monty}}}
Got a call from the vet an hour ago. Monty has passed away. There is still no indication of what happened or why.
Oh Sonn :'( :'( :'(
I am so very sorry to hear this. You are in my thoughts this evening, I’m gutted for you.
You gave him such a good home when no one else would. You took great care of him and fought so hard. I am so very, very sorry.
Sleep well little Monty. You will be deeply missed by so many whom you didn’t even know. :'( xxxx

I’m so sorry!
You did what you could for him. It sounds to me like his little heart just gave out… and sometimes there is no good answer as to why.
At least he got to have a good life with you. We’re all here, for whatever support we can give. [[hugs]]
Oh no! Sonn, I’m so sorry!
You took such wonderful care of him and gave him the best home he could have wished for.
Binky free, little Monty.
Oh Sonn, so sorry! I know he was quite the handful, but you loved him so much and gave him such a good life. Thoughts and prayers for you.
Binky Free, Month Bunny xx
Sonn, I’m so sad to find this news.
I’m so sorry. You’re very much in my thoughts.
***Binky Free Monty*** A fluffy terror, yet loveable and will be missed!
I’m so sorry, Sonn. You’ve been through so much these past few months and I can’t even imagine how you must be feeling right now. You gave him a wonderful life and not many people would have put up with such a blood thirsty beast. (I’m kidding, kind of.) He will be so very missed.
Binky Free, Monty~
