HENRY HOSPITALISED FINAL UD

I'm now on the hunt for a shallower litter tray. Still need a big one that he can get his fat *r*se in but one where he doesn't need to leap out. His current tray is about four inches deep and I saw him jump out this morning and immediately react. He was miserable all morning afterwards. I've improvised and got a shallower tray (of sorts) but need 2 proper trays. His big green seed tray won't fit through the crate door.
Can't recall seeing any anywhere in local pet stores. Anyone got any ideas what I could use instead?

Mine use these - as annabelle can't managed ledges with her bad back.

I used to use dog beds for the piggies as well.

The entrance/exit section doesn't want to be more than two and a half inches deep. His present tray is four inches deep. He will insist on bounding out of it.

I don't think the ones I have for annie are any higher for that.

I do so agree, if it does turn out to be toxo it is no way your fault love.  You are a wonderful bunny mummy.  Top up loving vibes are on their way.

Thanks.... but I bet you would feel the same in my shoes.
About the tray... I got out my trusty hacksaw and cut out a section along one of the long sides of one of his trays. A bit uneven but serviceable and he will still have high sides to keep in pee.
He is eating pretty well but I think I've spotted where his muscle pain is.... he often lies with his left hind leg stretched straight. So I'm guessing the problem lies there abouts.
He is being quite sulky today... as well as feeling sore. So he's not wanted to know me, except for food!

Oh darling 

Still no news on the blood tests and it's getting me down.
This morning Henry was his old self for all of thirty minutes! He was a very helpful little nuisance when I was trying to clean out the cage but very soon he was the usual picture of misery: eyes half shut, head drooping, ears flat, body in the flat bread loaf position and not relaxed. And that's how he is everyday, all day except for feed breaks. That's the only hopeful thing I can hold onto... he is eating well.
I'm feeling really rough myself with my "lower region" problem which four Doctors have all, so far, failed to identify, let alone cure. The last Dr saw me on Wed. and took a swab for analysis and she said it wasn't what the others had said.... all I know is it's bl*o*dy misery. And it began the 3rd October ... about the same time, maybe slightly before, I began to notice little things about Henry ... you know, those little niggly things that you can't be sure your actually seeing or imagining...
I'm starting to wonder if we are in sympathy with each other, and if so... which of us is really poorly and which is empathic?
AND... having written that last bit.... am I still sane?

Im sure you are still sane hun x x x

I wish I could offer more than just hugs but I'm sending them anyway!

It's been a strange day today.
For starters I finally succumbed to the call of my pit at 4-15 this morning and over slept. (The third time I've been in my bed since all this began.) Having intended to rise at 8-00 to have his brekkie for him at 8-15 I woke with a start at 9-50!!!!!!
Needless to say HE WAS NOT IMPRESSED ... which pleased me no end because it showed he was having a good day!
I got his feed and, as usual, while he was eating I made to change his litter tray and tidy the cage as much as possible. Then, with some nifty paw work he slipped by me. out of the crate and bu**ered off on a nosey around.
Thinking, "S*d it!" I ran for the hoover and gave the crate a thorough cleaning.
He really enjoyed that hop around. Nothing strenuous but so pleasing to the nose! He came back in the crate of his own accord and for the rest of the day he has seemed more relaxed and like himself.
But.... (oh, I HATE buts!) he did do something a little odd this evening. He flopped on his right side and I saw the right hind paw twitching, like we would open/close our fingers! It looked like a nerve thing to me.
Yes, you've guessed it.... Now I'm worried about a nerve problem!
This bun will be the death of me!

Why does that bloody but always have to be there sweetie?  I so enjoyed reading your good news and then I was the But.  I am sending lots of hugs and healing vibes, please keep us posted.

Well it would seem he is okay.
I say SEEM he is okay because I TRY not to tempt fate and I'm ever a PESIMIST.
But his vet rang this morning and all SEEMS to be going well. Henry SEEMS to be well on the road to recovery.
So I'm HOPING this is the last time I post on this thread.
