Rabbits are one of our common pets. Their fur needs to be washed frequently, not only to keep it clean and hygienic, but also to make the rabbit more cute. However, some rabbit owners may neglect the care of their rabbits after bathing, which may lead to rabbit health problems. Today, I will share with you my experience of dying of a rabbit after bathing it, and what to do.
One day, my friend Xiao Li called me and said that her rabbit had finished taking a bath. Later, he appeared to be dying. After hearing the news, I rushed to her house to help Xiao Li save her rabbit. Xiao Li told me that after bathing the rabbit in warm water, she did not dry it in time or give it water, but just let it dry naturally. As a result, the rabbit suddenly fainted in the cage and became very difficult to breathe.
I quickly checked the rabbit's temperature and found that it was already hot and its skin was also a little red and swollen. I know this is because Xiao Li did not dry the rabbit in time after bathing, causing the rabbit to catch cold and become inflamed. I helped Xiao Li wipe the rabbit's body with warm water, and use a dry towel and a hair dryer to dry the rabbit's hair. At the same time, I prepared a basin of warm water for it to drink.
After such care, the rabbit slowly resumed breathing and no longer looked so listless. But this is not enough. I told Xiao Li that after bathing the rabbit, he must dry it in time and let it drink water. This can prevent the rabbit from getting sick due to reduced resistance. In addition, we must also pay attention to the time and method of bathing the rabbit.
The hair of rabbits is relatively delicate and easily damaged, so the bathing time should not be too long. It is best to control it within 10-15 minutes, and the water temperature should be kept between 38-40 degrees. At the same time, do not let the rabbit enter deep water when bathing to prevent the water from flooding the head and causing suffocation.
Finally, if a pet has symptoms of discomfort, we must take care of it in time or take it to the veterinarian. Do not delay to avoid more serious consequences. existAfter a series of care, Xiao Li's rabbit recovered to health. Under our care, it became lively and cute again. This experience made us realize that raising pets requires serious responsibility and ensuring their health and happiness at all times.
