Can anyone look after Domino?

Just thought if there was someone that was more likely to pick up 'poorly' signs quickly it might help you worry less while you are away. (Although there is no reason to suspect he will deteriorate if he is stable before you go.)

Theres nobody "bun savvy"......but my best friends lives a 15 minute walk away and if my dad thinks that he doesnt seem 100% she will come down and check on him, shes seen him every weekend since hes been poorly so she would know if something was off.

My cousin is a vet nurse so going to ask her if she knows anybody just incase x

I absolutely agree with you. It's best to keep him in his environment rather than stressing him with a long journey and being away from home which could upset him and provoke him to go backwards.

I'd get a little team on standby just incase your dad isn't sure.

Dad wont look after him, says why should he So looks like I wont be going, and it will mean staying here with my Dad and brother, while my mum goes to Kent for Xmas to see my other family.

Bring on the new year fast thats all I say, not sure how much more I can handle. feel like all i do is moan to you guys x

awww hun
what is wrong with your dad honestly, has he been smacked with the meanie stick
he really needs to get a grip.
i wish i could help x

I agree Fiver love, how can anyone mind looking after a bunny? I hope this works out for you love and you come to a satisfactory conclusion. Please keep us posted.

Huge hugs

I am so sorry everything is so hard for you at the moment. I really hope that this time next year you will be in a much happier and better place xx

What a complete farce. Nevermind about doing it for anyone else, could he not just do it for you and for a poor little bun?

I kind of understand it partially, we havent got on at all for about 6 months and we barely speak...but... its because of how he doesnt understand my health and just constantly belittles it, and say..he wouldnt ask me when I am in bed at 7pm because im so tired, "would you like any dinner" he just doesnt ask - but then my brother walks downstairs from having a day off because he couldnt be bothered to go to work, and he can go to work ...and he does him dinner.

And it just started to grate on me, and we just kept rowing so in the end i basically ignored him. But..him doing this for me would have made it up to me a lot, and the last few weeks he has said that he is tying to understand so we have been getting on a bit better.

But then he does this. Not sure what will happen now really, I mean we are going to kent so if anyone lives in Kent Ill drop him off

The issue here is not a case of personal problems between you and your dad love, the fact that a bun needs care is an issue on its own. We have taken on a little cat who is homeless and we have defleaded her. It isn;t a case of she isn't our responsibility, she needed help and that is where it ends.

I hope hope something works out for you love.

I have sorted something!

Someone who is a fosterer of the rescue I support has offered to look after him. I have met her at rescue things (when I did that rabbit care talk) and I have her on facebook and she offered, shes really nice and fosters lots of buns but has none over xmas so im really chuffed. He will be indoors in her spare room and she will give him lots of tlc

That is such good news and must be a huge relief to you.

I am so pleased you have found somewhere for Domino. It sounds as though he'll be in great hands with this lady, and you can now enjoy your break as you deserve

At the end of the day you're his daughter and in your relationship he's the parent and meant to be the adult so he should put that aside to help you nevermind that I have to say I'm 100% with Jo, it's about Domino being cared for...Anywho, that doesn't matter anymore, I'm so pleased for you that it's all sorted so it won't cause any problems and you can spend your christmas with your family

oh taht is such a relief for you souch great news x
