I don't really know anything about rabbits, but I don't like to think of any animal being poorly. So I hope your little rabbit is soon on the road to recovery!! Take care of yourself too Tina.

Best wish for a speedy recovery Micky. He may burst a hot water bottle have you got any of those maze pads you put in the microwave. Valxxx

Thank goodness you've caught it in time!!!!!

If he is an outdoor rabbo it's not a good idea to bring him in - it causes 'sniffles' and will add to the pneumonia!!!
If he's an indoor rabbo already put him somewhre ventilated - not in a direct draft though...

All he needs is a clean dry hutch with plenty of soft dry hay for bedding, a supply of fresh water and lots of love and rest....
I also add fresh herbs to my poorly rabbos diets - there is a ready made bag you can get from Asda called herb garden - i swear by it!!!!!!!!

Like i said - i had a wonder bunny - Billy- who fought off pneumonia quite a few times, each time we thought that was it - but they are tough little cookies!!!!!!!
Give him a huggle from me..And if you need anything just Holla!!!!!!!!

ps. forgot to say - if it's an outdoor hutch you can hang an old blanket (not a really thick one) over the front (outside) of his cage - this will keep the ventilation but prevent too much cold getting in!! xxx

Thank you all so much for your concern and support.

Micky and Margaret sleep in a 6 x 8' shed normally and have a run with secure and draught free accommodation for the day time. I have brought them into the house, snuggled them in. They have thick cardboard and newspaper lining a pallet with half a bale of hay and their favourite curly kale and nice goodies.. anything to keep him eating and drinking. ... it's marginally warmer than their shed and they are probably warmer than I am. Tomorrow I will look for something like Daff, Susan and Valium have said and a trip to Asda for some Herb Garden .. thank you Lou. I'll try him on some porridge too..
The veterinary said to keep them together... if Micky was infectious, Margaret would get it regardless.

I have to give him antibiotics twice a day for 14 days and will keep my fingers crossed.

Thank you again, I know everyone understands.

Hello Tina Marie - hope Mickey is ok, bless him:o)) You're doing everything you can:o)

take care

jude sarf wales :o) xx

Oh, i'm so glad he's got a cage mate - she'll keep him warm enough!!!!!
I used to have this gorgeous guinea called tiny (HE WAS HUGE, LOL) and he used to sleep with my bunny and keep her warm when she was ill, little guy used to clean her too - i'm sure thats what kept her going for so long.....

That herb garden i absolutly swear by - i had a bunny (Toothbunny aka Jean-claude) who has an abcess - they said there was nothing could be done - i gave him the herbs and the abcess completely went - the vet said it has NEVER been heard of before - i'm sure it's down to all that herbie goodness.....

Will be thinking of little Micky and sending healing thoughts...
Thanks for letting us know how he is..

LOU XXXXXXXXXxxxxxxxxxxx

Hello everyone.. Micky is looking bright this morning.. shame about Margaret though. I have an appointment at the veterinary this evening for her.

They were nice and warm last night and are eating well, which is a huge relief.

Thanks again for your support.
