Today is Moo's Day...


Today being the 1st day of the Chinese Lunar New Year, it is very sad for me to announce that Moo passed. I was not able to accurately diagnose her problem but the symptoms lead to a couple of guesses. Most people in the international rabbit forum that I participate believe it was a weaning gut problem. Weaning gut problem is when bad bacterias overpower the good bacterias in the kit's gut when their delicate stomach switches from baby to adult. The stomach flora somehow was unable to strike a balance and therefore causes the kit to go into passive mode. Moo stopped suckling and I tried my best to help. And as usual, I was unable to convince mother nature to spare this little girl.
