    Re: Cookie - so sorry he didn't make it but just wanted to reassure watchers that it's pretty rare for that to happen. I've run a sanctuary for little ones for more than 20 years - rabbits, guinea pigs, degus, chinchillas, mice, hamsters, rats etc. We've had many undergo anaesthetic (for neutering & other reasons) & we've NEVER lost one. Neutering rabbits is vital (unneutered female rabbits have a more than 60% chance of uterine cancer & pyometra is common in all unspeyed female mammals) so please don't let Cookie's passing put you off. Make sure you get an exotics specialist vet who regularly treats rabbits (RWAF website has a list) not a general vet. Sadly lionheads & other flat faced breeds usually require dental work at some point & will need anaesthetic so make sure you have a rabbit savvy vet near to you before you adopt a bun.
    Please don't let little Cookie's passing put you off getting vital treatment for your little furry friends, cancer or pyometra is a way worse ending than poor Cookie had. We've had buns live to 13 & older partly because they were neutered. It's the best thing you can do for them.

      I wish I knew this information when I rescued EB X I just had to get him out of the situation he was in, he was thin, filthy and had a body score of 2 so we worked really hard to get him where he is now X he couldn't be neutered because he struggled with the anaesthetic, but luckily he was bought out of it X
      Never had any issues since though X

      Yup, I have a lionhead who is going on 9 and as healthy as can be. He was neutered at 6 mo by our local humane society for both heath reasons and because he loved our chihuahua a bit too much. As a lovely bonus he no longer had a gross smell.

      I’ve had many bunnies over the years. Males can be very rambunctious. Since this little guy was just dropped off in a box he could have been any age and he was possibly just to old to handle the stress and the anesthesia.

      @@torioakley6000 it's ok to be worried about your friend, shows you care :) Have a chat with your vet for reassurance - most exotics vets have done thousands of rabbit neuters & often many on even smaller/more fragile critters like chinchillas, guinea pigs & degus. That & dental operations are their bread & butter. Most haven't lost very many over the years. A successful neuter isn't as TV worthy as a heartbreaking loss so that's why you're seeing them. They don't show the thousands of routine cases. Your bun will be very sexually frustrated, possibly aggressive & will destructive if you don't neuter & it's very, very hard to bond an unneutered male with another rabbit & that's without thinking of the 168 babies a year they can churn out! It's really the best option - good luck with it :)

As for this sad episode, you do not know if an anaesthesia test was carried out prior or not.

      I worked at a veterinary practice and one of my friends and colleague had booked my bunny in for an operation because she clearly had something wrong internally. My friend reckoned it would be a routine exploratory and I warned her that I didn't expect Shadow (my bunny) to pull through the aesthetic due to how weak she was. I did get a call a few hours later, it's surreal comforting a vet when you're the owner of the animal thats past.

      I'm just concerned how long that partnership will last, to be honest. We say to people in their 50, they are irresponsible to have babies. And kinda goes for getting pets when you are so old that they might outlive you. I don't mean to be mean here. It's a fucking fair thing to get old. Or deep depression or whatever. But if you find it hard to keep yourself tiptop, having additional responsibility is probably not the best. I do think that home visits to the elderly could REALLY benefit from having a dog come along. My grandma was in an old persons home and they had people come with their dogs quite often. ALWAYS a hit. This was a place for alzheimers and dementia. They would take pictures of the people living there with the dogs and so they could relive it and remember. So I understand what good a dog can do. I love dogs. At that age though, I feel having someone offer a service to come visit people with a dog is a better option. Cos realistically this dog can end up homeless yet again is a year or two. Same goes with people with disability or depression or something. The joy of dog is so real, but I think we should also think of the dog. It takes a very strong person to repeatedly adopt old dying dogs. But we are kinda forcing that on a dog.

And it's unfair to say an older person can't have the full-time company of that dog just because they might die before the dog. You can't know that; she might live ten or more years yet, and in fact she might live longer just for having that pupper in her life.

      my Pomchi when she was a puppy she died in 2017 at age 9 but before that when she was not yet a year old we had her spayed and she had a bad reaction and had a seizure so when we took my baby boy to the new vet we changed vets because we found out things about that one anyway we took our now 4 year old boy shih tzu when he was a young pup to get neutered and I was terrified because of what had happened before and because it was so soon after losing Sweetie girl that I was a wreck worried about my boy eventhough its a bit wasier for boys still they gotta be put under and I am afraid of that as a human when i had to go under but more for him

The vet only met him once for a few minutes and it absolutely crushed him when he didn't make it! Had that been a vet here in the states, most of them wouldn't have batted an eye! These vets are exactly the way vets should be, I really hate the the way vets can seem so cold and I know they trained that way but still.

    I am so sad about Cookie. I have worked with a rabbit rescue and this does happen. They do make very sweet pets.

    Cookie gave 9 furry blessings, sometimes that's all we are required to do. God bless you Dr. Scott and staff.

    I didn't know Scott's practice wasn't in Australia and was quite confused by the European architecture.
