Just back from vets

Magic went into labour this morning ..

but she was struggling so took her to the vets and they thought she only had one baby and it had grown to big so gave her injections to strengthen the womb to try and help, but it still wouldn't budge, so went to the emergency vet, and he said she has to be sectioned, when they sectioned they found out there was actually 3 babies, and 2 had tried to come out at the same time and thats what caused the problem, and the other baby was to small, the babies died, I got Magic spayed while she was in as don't want to put her through this again ,

she has 10 stitches, has started eating a little and is drinking, has done a pee, but not pooped yet, got to give her a solution every hour untill she poops,

get well vibes welcome ,

getting smokey the chop soon as well

Re: Just back from vets

just back from vets, vet said she's looking great nice and bright , gave her another dose of antibiotics and a jag to get her guts moving, so just to keep an eye on her to see when she starts pooping , she gets her stitches out on a week on tuesday , then once she's feeling better gonna properly bond her and Smokey , any advice on that welcome ?

vet said not to get smokey the snip as since Magic has already been spayed we don't need him done

Thats bad advice on your vets part. An un-neutered buck can and will pester a spayed doe and you could end up with fighting rabbits.

Im glad she's feeling better, and i hope she continues to improve.

Re: Just back from vets

I am so sorry for smokey, this must have been really upsetting for you and very stressful and tiring for her, well done for spotting the signs and taking her to the vets asap

I agree with nonnie not only will he stink he will drive smokey mad and they will just end up fighting
