Bunnies, needles and books: Hugo's update

Well, I went in to the vets yesterday afternoon to visit Hugo and see how he was doing...the nurse brought him in the visiting room and let him romp around, and he was so excited sniffing and chinning anything in sight! He was surely bright and alert, but alas, he is still being fed Critical Care and although he likes the taste (or so the nurse said), he HATES being fed with a siringe!! Well, I would be furious too, wouldn't you? Yesterday still no poops, despite receiving gut mobility drugs etc, and still not eating on his own. He surely wants to make us suffer, the scoundrel!
This morning, Dani said he finally passed some currants, and he is still bright and alert but not eating...so she said if he still keeps on passing on currants he may be coming home this afternoon!! I have arranged to see him at 3pm, so if all goes well I can take him home then. Fingers crossed!

And now I shall leave you with a video of my furries that was shot in June... apologies for the not very steady camera hand!!

PS what dashing bunnies you have.; Wednesday, 23 July, 2008

One thing my sick guy would always go for was canned pumpkin! Not the pie filling, just plain canned pumpkin. Love the video, what a happy pair!; Wednesday, 23 July, 2008

E' come ritrovare una lingua comune che ci unisce, una sorta di Lapino che permette di comunicare con tutti i bunnies del mondo.
Dai un bacino sul nasino ai tuoi due splendidi nigliosi.
With love; Saturday, 26 July, 2008
