Hi
We had a scare with Little H but as she had been with us for most of the
winter because of the cold weather we were able to spot it early. Of course
it is always after hours and so we had to use the vets emergency service.
Fortunately the vet on duty was fairly rabbit savvy. (Once the vet said well
we'll do what we did last time??)
Anyway after some Buprecare, Metoclopramide and Zantac we came home with H
and some critical care.
It's the first time we've actually seen the recovery process as in the past
H had been kept in the surgery overnight and then transferred to Sylvia's
knowledgeable care.
It was fairly quick. After two critical care sessions and also some
pineapple juice she started to be more herself. Complete return to her
normal activity took a few more days, and some dandelion leaves which she
loves.
She always seems to get GI about this time of the year. I thing it is due to
coat shedding, and despite us brushing and combing vigorously, she still
manages to get it.
Because we were unconsciously monitoring her we nipped it in the bud and
knew it wasn't as bad as previous occasions but still a worry. Moral is be
on your guard.
