3 legged rabbit

we have got a 3 legged rabbit in at the rspca at the moment. nothing more to say just thought it was quite interesting!

Aww bless it!!

Ive never seen a 3 legged bun in reali life.

Front or back leg missing?

Front leg. Desn't bother her at all.

My Cerys has half a front leg missing, caused by her Mum we think as its not a surgical amputation.
Harry had a hind leg amputated a few months ago after sustaining a compound fracture in a nasty accident.
Both Buns cope perfectly well

Boblets' Lucy has 3 legs and she seems to get on fine! A sweet little lady.

Can't wait to see pics of your legless bunster

I think Juno will have to have half her front leg amputated, hopefully not all of it as previously suspected.

Do buns manage better with a half a leg then? I'd always imagined that they'd be better off having the leg totally removed if they had a fracture? Not sure why I thought that...perhaps so they don't have to carry around the weight?

Well Juno dosn't have a fracture but the 'wrist joint' drags on the floor and becomes inflammed and infected. Above this the leg dosn't cause problems and she can lift it at the shoulder so I feel she would have more benefit only loosing part of the leg rather than all of it.
