Tucker's attitude is actually prettygood. He huddles sometimes, but not all the time.He sits next to his hay and wants to eat it, but justwon't.He's tired, frustrated, angry, and is sick ofbeing made a fuss over. He hates pineapple juice andNutriCal.
You would've died to see him sprawled out for the vet. That'sthe one thing that I can smile about because he made such a liar out ofme. It was so cute. It was as if he finally feltrelaxed enough because he probably felt like he was going to be rescuedby these other people from me. There is nothing thevet can do for him at this point. They've done everythingthey can and unfortunately, there's no miracle drug for thiscondition. This treatment will either work or he'lldie. Seems that simple. An operation is out of thequestion for the cost, there aren't guarantees, and the closest I canget to anyone that would even touch him to open him up is inBoston.
As for Fauna, shepays little attentionto histreatments,but she does circle around him with happiness whenhe does get in his litterbox. He'll run over to herfor protection from me when I'm trying to catch him fortreatment. They really hang out with each other a lot thesedays. He sits and stares at her for the most part,all day long while they're in their cages.
As to the sugar, I have an email to Pamnock, Rick Stahl, and the womanwho wrote Rabbit Health in the 21st Century. The acid in thepineapple juice is what will break up the hairball. The liveactive cultures in yogurt might help. Will let you know whatI find out.
