Everyone please help pray for my pet bunny dear life :(

We have a 2yr old white dwarf rabbit. Her name's Lulu. Very playful little gal. Had a broken arm when she was 1yr old.

Today my sister took her outside for a bath, then left her outside to play for a few hours. When she brought her back in, she noticed that Lulu was lacking strength to move. Later in the evening we noticed she was breathing very heavily. She had oxygen cut off a few times, luckily my pop patted her and helped with her breathing.

Tonight at midnight we brought her into the emergency vet where she's put on oxygen. The vet said she may have contracted some kind of bateria, her temperature is only 35*c. The vet also said her x-rayed pic of her lung has some sort of fluid in it.

I've seen her stiffen up a few times due to lack of oxygen. Her hands and legs were stretched out, her eyes bulging, and her entire body shaking. It was not a pretty sight.

Hopefully things will turn out for the better tomorrow and thereafter. We love her dearly. Hang in there Lulu.

She's the most adorable little creature we've ever met, so kind and playful. Always licking our fingers and toes, and loves it when we pet her and give her a back massage.

Please lend a hand and pray for her life if you can. Thankyou.

I feel for you, man. We had a 20 lb tom cat, we loved very much. One day he came in and collapsed. He had Leukemia and we had to put him down . Hope you favorite rabbit makes it.

My sis had a pet rabbit that lived for about 8 years...quite a long time for a rabbit. Eventually he couldn't move his rear legs and she had to put him down.

I'm sure your rabbit will get better.

Don't worry, you'll get a big prayer from this animal lover!

I prefer the predatory animals, but I think I can make an exception for your bunny. I hope she's doing well...

Thx for your thoughts fellas. But unfortunately she didn't make it. Took her in at midnight, and got the dreaded call in the morning that she passed away at 7 in the morning

I'm sure she past away with minimal pain, at the very least she did not exhibit the same nerve wrecking seizure where her arms and legs were all extended, her eyes bulging, and entire body shaking. That was really painful to see first hand. She died in a comforting position. That alone was worth the $450 overnight emergency fee.

We took her body back this afternoon and had her buried at our back yard, right beside our gold fishes. Put her in a nice wood box.

My sister is totally devasted. She cried a lot. I cried on a few occasions as well. The bonding between us and the family is so strong that we think of her as one of the family.


Again, thankyou all for your concern.


Regards,
Plucky
