Crunchie is still doing well but...

He is going in to vets on Tuesday for anestetic they are going to remove all the fur around teh nodules areound his face - nose eyes mouth and any loose - dead skin. At the moment a syou can see on the pics on FB - bits pf dead skin are coming off - however some is hardening and its uncomfortable for him. By removing all the dead scabbing we will be able to assess the skin below.

The vet said he is like a burns vctim. That he will always be scarred - may lose the tips of his ears and the nodules on his eyes may never go - good thing is that his eyelids havent split. His lips will always be thick :(

More bad news is that he has pasturella as a secondary infection :(:(

After op on tuesday we will be getting some steriod cream for his little face :(


I dont care what he looks like - the vet said he will never win a beauty comp but I dont care :( I just worry that now I made the wrong choice. He's notin pain - but it must be so uncomfortable :) and Tuesday will be worse :(

Fingers crossed for Tuesday. Really hope the operation is a success. Hopefully he will be much more comfortable once it is all done. Sending vibes for a successful anaesthetic and speedy recovery

Sorry to hear about Crunchie hope the OP goes well and he will be more comfortable afterwards. He sounds like a fighter, I had a bunny called Crunchie too and she survived breast cancer and was a real fighter too.

Thinking of you and Crunchie xxx

Don't second-guess yourself. You made the decision you thought was best and that's all any of us can do. Poor Crunchie - it's a horrible illness isn't it?! :(

Hope all goes smoothly on Tuesday and just remember that your care has got Crunchie this far. x

Sending lots of vibes for Crunchie, you should be so proud that you've got him through this, like you say Dom, it doesn't matter if he has a few scars, he's here and fighting which is what counts x

Sending loads of vibes for Crunchie. Will be thinking of you both on Tuesday.

He's a very brave bunny and so lucky to have such a devoted mummy.
