injured wild baby bun....

we have had a wild baby bun brought to us today ..

he / she is in a pretty bad way ..
punctuure wounds to both thighs and back .poor little thing is terrified .

Been to vets and there is nothing obviously broken but he / she is very wobbly .

Iam worried about stress and / or internal injuries but all i can do tonight other than keep warm , comfy and quiet .had pain relief injection .

lots of vibes... just reminds me of little Monkey

Awwwwww Angie

I hope the little one makes it. At least he/she is safe from predators and has had pain relief.

Lots of special wildie Bun vibes on their way

lots of extra special vibes for the little one. i hope it copes with the stress and turns a corner tomorrow

Special vibes coming your way little one xx

I hope s/he is OK and suffers no lasting damage. I'm sure the biggest challenge at the moment is overcoming shock.

(((vibes)))

Oh no Lots of vibes that the little bun pulls through.

Sending vibes to the baby.

oh sending vibes - if it helps your worries when I found Wobbles he had been hit by a car and couldn't stand and had a huge water balloon on his skull and i thought that I was just taking him hime to die peacefully but he made it. And Foxglove was found being pecked by crows and was full of holes and the manager at the RSPCA thought she was a goner but she pulled through so fingers crossed yours will too.

well he ./ she is still with us and has eaten all the grass and hay i put in last night .

still very wobbly and frightened but at least made it through the night .

Im so pleased he/she made it through the night. Sending lots of vibes for a full recovery

Oh Yayy

I'm so pleased the little one made it and being passed weaning means s/he has time on her side too. I think thats what saved Juno really, had she been younger I probably would have lost her. I spent her first 2 weeks keeping her on a natural diet and she has now finally been weaned onto a domestic one but still eats far more roughage than my other bunnies do.

That's such good news

Sending calming vibes for little frightened bun xx

Glad baby made it through the night.
Any ideas what attacked her/him?

How is the precius lilttle wildie now? x

well i was realy worried about Bracken ... i know shouldnt have named him / her ....this morning ... he / she was sat realy funny with head down ... but through the day we have seen some inprovement and Bracken is moving around a bit now .

back legs seem a bit steadier but im realy worried about one of her front legs as it keeps bending under her ...

been back to vets again this evening and had another very thorough exam ... still no signs of breakage ..

She has had a steroid injection and anti biotics and im to sart oral baytril tomorrow...

i guess its just a wait and see game for now .

Just found this Ang, Poor bunny Its a big positive that Bracken is still with us, S/he must be made of strong stuff - and is in the best hands. I know I said this earlier but you are amazing. Sending massive warm snuggles to Baby Bracken, Keep fighting angel XX

Juno's front leg bends under and thats how it got infected in the first place, through abrasions where it dragged. I would really suggest putting a bandage round it if it's dragging considerably.

Is it possible she may have suffered nerve damage through the puncture wounds to her leg?

Is she on probiotics too? Juno has been on them since day 1 and the first day of Baytril really upset her tummy too.

Juno :luv: ... Bracken :luv:

Bracken is inproving ... ... am trying not to get too optamistic as i know things could still go badly wrong but
she is definatly steadier on her back legs and this morning seems to be using her front leg slightly better ..

when she sees me she atands with her paws on the mesh :luv: :luv: :luv:

:luv: :luv:
It's because she can see her Mummy! Juno sits on her Teddy when she wants cuddles and attention.
