Medical update Shelly

















As you can tell from the previous post we have a few animals who are on medication or need special care.
Shelly has been into hospital to have a small abscess removed from her ear and though she came home yesterday she has only just started to eat this afternoon. We took her back to the vet this afternoon as normally following surgery they like to have the bunnies eating and pooing the next morning. To ensure she did not become dehydrated or any gut stasis occur we have been feeding her with Critical Care food throughout the day. Within the last hour she has started to eat her carrot tops and spring greens for her tea.
Shelly will need to see the vet to have her stitches out in 12 days time, and once the fur has regrown her ear should look perfectly normal.
