Hi All
We have purchased an english angora rabbit at a show in Or. We got
home on Monday evening all look fine but how can you tell. I noticed
that the rabbit wasnt eating or drinking and there were no to little
droppings. The rabbit has a full coat of wool when we got it an after
doing a little reading I thought the rabbit has wool block. I have
been treating the rabbit with a comercial hair ball forumula for cats
for 2 days and not noticeable improvement and now with and
molases/mineral oil tonight. Well something happened it looks like the
rabbit had a major blow out. The scat looks like black diarrhea and
stinks. I had to wash the poor rabbit to clean her up but she is
still un responcive. My question is, is this normal or do I have
bigger problems?

You can find a list of rabbit-knowldegable vets at www.rabbit.org

Not all vets know nearly enough about rabbits, who are very different
from cats and dogs, though almost all of them will claim they do.

It sounds to me as if your new bunny needs some urgent attention.

Please cease immediately the hairball goop and mineral oil.

Try to get her to eat grass hay or fresh greens such as parsley.

But she needs a vet. Now.
