Re: Poorly bunny - not eating enough, losing weight.
Wow kammie I didnt know you'd changed jobs over Charlie, I completely agree with you that a rabbit should only see a specialist vet who has a keen interest in rabbits. poor Charlie RIP, I know you did everything you could for him!
also jemma, there are some reasonable rabbit medicine books that you can buy off amazon etc, there not cheap but it might put your mind at rest to feel a little more in control.
I have recently rescued a bunny with a blocked tear duct (his brother also had 1 so its definatly genetic) I find bathing it every day with boiled water thats cooled to warm (kills of the bacteria in the water) and cotton wool has really helped, as for the nose I can only suggest steam to try to loosen the snot, maybe put Clover in the bathroom while you have a bath (if it doesnt stress her out). It is very important she gets as much food and vitamins as possible. Just keep trying everything you are already doing and dont give up!
