Hi rufus is on the mend but sadly nanuk and shamu now have it. a rabbit was put down at work today from same illness. as i had to take them to work to feed them this is probably were it came from.

i dont hold out much hope for nanuk, refusing to eat n loosing weight. i expect to loose him during the night. i hope he lives but only morning will tell.

Shamu is eating a little but has mucky bum and is thin as well. hopefully he might recover. if it comes to the worst they will have to be put down to save the others.....

its sad i no but to have one healthy one is a blessing. getting them this far is a miricle:eek:

I hope they will get better soon! I don't know how it is with rabbits, can you feed them when they don't eat by themselves to help get them through?

im on a mission! i just got some willow branchs,
vitamins, laxative and a stomach anti biotic.

nanuk and shamu were grinding their teeth which is a sign they were in pain. which is usually bad stomach.

so laxative first to flush out toxics n manky food. stomach boitics n vitamins after to help recovery and willow for health n mild laxative.

hopefully it will help

I hope it does..would activated charcoal help any? My Mary ate something completely vile last night and had a horrible reaction. I am trying to give her some of the activated tabs today in hopes it binds and takes them out.
