I'm still smiling at myself because I actually - just for a second - really considered counting Sasha's poo output when someone said there was an average daily figure!

She's waiting for her vet and her mentor Gillian Knight to phone- hoping for ideas and hopefully they can contact a specialist. Tigger still has diarrhoea but there is larger quantity of the stuff than before and she's not sure if this is good or bad. Bad obviously that she has diarrhoea but good that she's eating more and things seem to be passing through better than they were. She's hopping about still and Caroline said 'so sorry this is not getting better yet but only good thing is I think I feel more sick about it than she does! What a fighter.'

Poor baby. She's doing so well bless her.

EDIT: Just had a chat with Caroline and we are both banging our heads against the wall because neither of us though about Coccidia!
I know it's a long shot, but this is the eighth day she's been ill. Probably her 6th day of diarrhoea since we had two break days where nothing came out. Unfortunately her favourite rabbit vet isn't in today and the vet she spoke to said she would need a faecal sample and won't give her the baycox right away like her favourite vet would have done. This means 2 days waiting for results and another two days for her to fight.
Caroline thought it would be worth a shot if I rang and said I give permission for them to give the meds to Caroline right away without sample or before results come back, but they said no
Caroline's going to take in a sample anyway and in the meantime see if her friend has any Baycox. She remembers using baycox in the past and it has worked wonders for other bunnies it's as if there is some magical ingredient in there where other things don't work (like we are experiencing now)
She's worried the results will come back saying she doesn't need it as she has a lot of experience of faecal samples being quite rubbish saying a bun doesn't need something.

Lots of prayers needed that Tigger can keep fighting and we find a cure/reason! Really hoping some baycox can be found and that it will work. If it doesn't I'm not sure what to do

It's a shame I know absolutely no rabbit people around me. So if you are near Royston/ Great Chishill and have any baycox let me know! worth a shot.

Is that the same Gillian Knight who helps run the heathlands animal sanctuary? It's based in Royston and is where we got one of our dogs from! Hope Tigger is feeling better, sending good healthy vibes your way!
