🐾Emergency C-Section, a Surprise Diagnosis, and a Happy Ending! 🐱💉

Meet Tanya, a brave rescue cat who came into our practice recently after giving birth to her first kitten, Twirl. When labour didn't progress, our team acted quickly and performed an emergency C-section to ensure Tanya was safe.

But during surgery, we discovered an unexpected complication - Tanya had a severely enlarged and blocked bladder. This doesn't commonly occur in female cats! Alongside the C-section, we carefully treated the blockage, and Tanya began her recovery whilst little Twirl started feeding well. 🍼💕

A few days later, Tanya was still unable to urinate on her own, so she returned to the practice. We gave her pain relief that was safe for nursing mums to help relax her bladder, but we were still unable to express it manually. As the next step, we performed a cystocentesis (a sterile needle is inserted into the bladder) - safely draining 62ml of urine from her bladder!

The good news? Once home and fully recovered, Tanya finally peed on her own with no further issues - a huge relief for all involved! 🎉🐾

Tanya is now comfortably back to mum duties with Twirl by her side - safe, healthy, and loved thanks to the rescue (J's Cat and Kitten Rescue, also known as Ginger Biscuit Cat and Kitten Rescue) and our Veterinary team. 💙

🐰Socialising Your Rabbit: Quick Tips for a Happy Bun! 🐾

Rabbits are social animals that thrive on companionship and gentle interaction. Start slowly - sit quietly near them, offer treats, and let them come to you. Gradually introduce new people, spaces and routines.

Bonding with another rabbit? Go slow and supervised! See some more tips below! A well socialised rabbit is happier, more confident, and easier to handle. 💕

🐰✨Why Neutering Your Rabbit Matters! ✨🐰

Thinking about neutering your bunny? Here's why it's one of the best things you can do for them:

✅Health Benefits: Neutering reduces the risk of cancers and infections, especially in females.
✅Behavioural Balance: Say goodbye to aggressive behaviour, spraying, and territorial issues.
✅No Surprise Litters: Rabbits breed fast - really fast! Neutering prevents unplanned baby bunnies.
✅Happier Bonding: Fixed rabbits are more likely to form strong, peaceful bonds with other bunnies.

🏥Most rabbits can be safely neutered by a rabbit-savvy vet around 4 - 6 months old.
📅If your bun isn't neutered yet, it's never too late to give them a healthier, happier life.

🐰💥Gut Stasis in Rabbits: What Every Bunny Parent Needs to Know! 💥🐰

Gut stasis is a serious, life-threatening condition where your rabbit's digestive system slows down - or stops completely. 😟

🚨Why it's Dangerous:
When the gut slows down:
- Food and gas build up
- Pain increases
- Appetite disappears
- Dehydration sets in
- Dangerous bacteria take over
All of this can happen very quickly - and it's an emergency! 🆘

⚠️Signs to Watch For:
- Not eating (even favourite treats)
- Small or no p**p
- Lethargy or hiding
- Loud tummy noises or no sound at all
- Teeth grinding (a sign of pain)

🥕Common Causes:
- Stress
- Pain (dental problems, etc.)
- Poor diet (low fibre!)
- Dehydration
- Lack of exercise

✅Prevention Tips:
- Feed high-fibre hay daily (80%o of diet)
- Keep your bunny hydrated 💧
- Regular vet check-ups 🩺
- Encourage movement and play
- Reduce stress and keep routines calm

🐰💨 If you notice ANY signs - call your vet immediately. Gut stasis can become fatal in just 24 hours.

🩺🐰Preventative Vet Care = A Longer, Healthier Bunny Life! 🐰💚

Rabbits are prey animals - they hide illness very well. That's why regular vet check-ups essential, even if your bun seems fine! ✅

What Preventative Care includes:
🩺Annual Health Checks
➡️Catch dental issues, weight changes, gut problems and more before they become serious.

💉Vaccinations
➡️Protect against deadly diseases like Myxomatosis and Rabbit Viral Haemorrhagic Disease (RVHD1 and RVHD2)

🦷Dental Exams
➡️Overgrown teeth can cause pain, eating issues, and gut stasis. Rabbits need regular checks!

🔍Parasite Prevention
➡️Mites, fleas, and flystrike can all be avoided with the right protection and hygiene.

📅Early Neutering
➡️Prevents certain cancers and helps with bonding and behaviour.

🛑Don't wait for signs of illness - by then, it could be an emergency!
📲Book your bunny's check-up today!
💬Tag a fellow rabbit parent and help spread awareness!
