As I mentioned in my last post our pet rabbit was sick, so I took him to the vet to have him checked out. After a quick examination of him and some manhandling of the poor thing, the vet said that Buttons has a fever and gave him an injection and some anti-biotic pills.
After a day of resting and a good sleep he is back to his normal self of running and jumping, but he doesn’t eat as much as he used to – of course, he still makes a bit of room for his apple. Anyway yesterday I think he did not quite like us after we gave him his medicine because this proved to be quite the challenge for me and Nadia and also I think for Buttons too. The way to give him his medicine is in water but that is not the tricky part, we have to give it in a syringe and down its mouth, which might not be the best of plans as some of you who have bunnies know.
After a short struggle with us and some medicine later he was back to normal and ruling the living room and making me chase him round the room while he was trying to eat Nadia’s valentine’s card.
