[Camarie]

[Wabbitdad12]

Your bunny's are really cute.

 

[Camarie]

Thanks Wabbitdad! Sadly I have some bad news...Stormy passed away suddenly today...the boys are keeping me sane and so is LadyBug who is Prego and will be giving birth soon. I cleaned my room and all the cages today so everything due to the fact i needed something to do...tomorrow i am makeing a huge cage for the rabbits...i am still trying to socailize them together i think they are getting a little better. Gizmo goes in tomorow morning for his nuetuer. Salem apt is in Oct if he is still alive the vets think the abses is a tumor and i dont have the money to get it removed. Just i want to hit the guy who sold me the rabbits cause i am learning through craigslist and thru friends the rabbits he sold to them where sick too. I feel sorry for his 2 breeding pairs. Just a sad/angry day...

 

[Wabbitdad12]

I am so sorry, what a lowlife.

 

[Camarie]

Gizmo's Nuetuer went wonderfully and he is back home healing up.

 

[SweetSassy]

That's good news.

 

[Camarie]

Also Gizmo weighs 2.66 lbs and today built a new bigger cage! Pictures coming soon! LadyBug is also HUGE and when she gives birth ill post pics ive had her for a little under 20 days and the preganacy i think isaround60 days.

Fatty LadyBug!





And Gizmo BINKY!

 

[Camarie]

Well Salem has moved into the outside hutch for now, i am looking into getting him help. I have contacted shelter telling them about his condition hoping one will give him a chance i cant afford. So soon it will be just Gizmo and Ladybug my guinea pig...well not for long since LadyBug is prego. I am debateing if i should get another bunny for Gizmo later once i find someone who will help Salem and once LadyBug gives birth. I really hope someone contacts me willing to help Salem. I want him to have a chance at beating the abses and living out the rest of his life happy.

 

[SweetSassy]

That has to be hard, but your doing the right thing. If you can't afford his medical attention(bills). I think it's fair to give him a chance to live a normal, pain free life.

Keep us updated.

 

[Happi Bun]

I'm so sorry about what's happening with Salem. Can you not find a vet that will work out a payment plan with you?

Why did you move sick Stormy outside???????
Have you posted in the RO rescue section to see if someone can take Salem???
I don't think you should get another bunny.. What happens if new bunny gets sick? Bunny has to go. I think it's time to stick with Gizmo and save your money in case something should happen to him.

Sorry not trying to be mean but there's a pattern here. **sigh**

Honestly I would say that another bun at this point is an horribly wrong choice. What about any vet care and costs that may come up? Any animal will fall sick at some point or another, no one can guarantee that it won't happen.

Salem is sick. He has now been, essentially, 'kicked out'. I feel for this poor baby. I can't believe anyone who loves an animal can stick them outside while he is suffering. An ailing animal left alone to suffer and now be scared all alone in a unfamiliar place. Poor, poor rabbit. I wish I were able to help the poor guy...

 

[Camarie]

He isnt outside in a unfimilar place the outside hutch is bigger and he has more room to walk around. I am not giving up on my rabbit ive paid for 2 vet bills already trying myself to cure whatever the abses is. He is not being kicked out he is getting a second chance that i cannot afford. I have a shelter that is interested in giving him the help he needs. I want him to get better and live not die. I can pay for any normal vet bills but my vet belives its a tumor and the removal is very pricey over my budget. I just paid for Gizmo to be nuetuered. I can afford somethings. And none of my other rabbits have been kicked out. Stormy DIED and i dont want that to happen to Salem. Moo and Boo are with my friend where they can be rabbits and Jethro died of old age and illness after arriving with Moo and Boo. My rabbits got a better life with my friend they have more room which is what they needed. Please this forum is not a place to judge. I am telling everyone whats going on to give me support. I hate that i have to rehome Salem. I love my flemies to death and if u read my posts you can see that. I want him to live. I cannot provide the help he needs and are out of ideas to help him. This was my last resort to help save/cure him.

 

[Flashy]

I do think you're doing the right thing by trying to find a place that can help Salem. So well done you for trying to do the right thing

How much detail can you give us about what's happening with Salem? Have you posted in the Infirmary? Also in the Rehome section?

You have a very high 'turnover' of animals, and I completely agree with the others that it is only fair to the animals to not get anymore. This is not about you, this is about them and doing what's best for them.

You said you wouldn't get anymore after Stormy and Salem and you rehoming the others, yet you got Gizmo.

It seems like there may be some sort of emotional need for them, on your part, and that you're not putting the needs of the animals first. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong though.

It's very clear you love your animals, but also that you can't give them the care they need and so they suffer because of that, like Salem is suffering now (in that he is ill and needs to be rehomed whilst ill).

I'm also a bit intrigued as to what happened with your grandmother because she made you rehome your others, how come she tolerates these?

You know my PM box is open if you want a chat. I do think you need to do some serious thinking about your animals and what is best for them, not just what you want.

I truly hope Salem is ok, can you keep us updated?

 

[SweetSassy]

Sara, I think your a great person. I love talking to you and reading your blog and posts. Flashy has madereally good points though. Maybe just keep Gizmo and Ladybug, and not get anymore animals. And....Find Salem the help he needs, like your doing.

My PM box is open too..... April

Salem has been sick since i got him at 4 weeks. The first vet saw the area was swollen but said it would most likely clear up on its own. I am going to stick with Gizmo and Ladybug. I got Gizmo because the person who was giving him away needed help and asked and i have a problem with saying no. I am focusing on getting Salem the help he needs i found someone who will give him that chance she said she will come get him on Sunday and take him to her vet. I will keep everyone updated with Salem. Gizmo is also healing right now after his nuetuer. And All my focus is on pregnant LadyBug because she might need help if she has complications with her birth. Salem is getting the help i cant provide him and it took me a long time to decide to reach out to see if someone could take him and do more for him i cannot. My grandmother has finally calmed down after my cousin was born. I have always had animals in the house wether it was ferrets, gerbils, hamsters, lizards, frogs, salamanders, fish, rabbits, or guinea pigs she doesnt mind as long as i take care of them. She was just stressed with the baby coming but now she is fine.

I understand your anger but I am thinking about these animals. No not all animals have major problems right away BUT in most animals' lives there will come a time that they need/require a large, costly surgery. That is part of the 'price' of owning an pet. A small price, I think, for the joy they give us.
You must realize this and do what is best for the pet. Sometimes doing what is best for someone else and hurting oneself is very hard BUT when you truly love something you sacrifice.
I don't look down on you for not being able to afford his treatment. We all find ourselves in this situation at one time or another in our lives BUT because of this you really shouldn't be thinking about another pet at this time and place in your life. This is NOT the time for selfishness... It is the time to do the right and the honorable thing- place these pets you do have and your future pets before your own wants.
