The offending rabbit will go to freezer camp today and hopefully we'll be done with this craziness among the buns.

I've done some research and it seems that males are prone to kill other males and sometimes they'll rip the fur off as we've already seen but I've found nothing like this particular issue. Why is it that the animals around me must be so weird? :rolleyes:

And why am I awake at 4:30am????? Gah!

The offender is now resting in the freezer. It explains why Vinnie wanted no part of being put back outside...he knew too much it seems.

Spent a few hours in Children's Hospital this evening with K. Thankfully she didn't have appendicitis which is what we had feared but she is fully constipated. Sure she wouldn't want me to tell everyone that but...hey, I'm her mom :p

Yikes, that can be really bad if not caught in time! Hopefully no bacterial infection in the gut! You've gotta be tired. Emergency rooms just take it right out of you! Hope K can move it out without too much pain. :hugs

Unfortunately she's been dealing with chronic constipation for the past 6 months and we cannot get into see the GI specialist at Children's until next month...and we scheduled that several months ago!

The doctor last night said that it's likely inherited and she'll likely deal with it in some form her whole life. Ugh. Unfortunately we don't know her family history as her bio mom was adopted and bio father is unknown. I hate for things to crop up unknown but that's the way it is in this case, at least when you know a family history you can prepare yourself for what might come up.

She was scared to take that ambulance ride to Children's but they were very nice and she came home with a stuffed pink pig that she named Piggie.

Yesterday before this happened I found 5 - 2 way radios in the back of a cabinet that I didn't know about and charged them up. I'm now sitting listening to the kids coordinate chores on them. It's much more effective than yelling across a field :p

Glad K is OK. :hugs

Those radios sound very helpful. We have a pair around here somewhere......
