i brought him to vet, vet say he kena lice.. and ask me to bath him.. i still remember that day was heavy rain. it's difficult for me to take taxi plus i'm sick too.... no matter how, i need to bring him to vet...
at last vet gave me some herbs medicine n ask me to bath him...
i went back home n bath him with warm water... dry it.. that nite, i went to collect their new home. i need to separate them, so i use a board. then tao tao is resting at the corner, while tuo tuo keep on bumping the board as if she wanted to stay with him...
that nite i feed them, n sayang them... till late nite i company them...
but....
the next morning, 6.45am.. tuo tuo died 1st~!lying motionless in the cage.. i really dun get it.. she is healthy all the while... i tried to be strong...
that morning i applied for coming in late to work..
i accompany tao tao.. he is too, moodless, didnt wan to move..
i went to work by 9am... i asked my housemate to look after it for me... but by 1pm.. tao tao left me....
i dont understand... how could this happen...
both of them is the sweetest rabbit i ever had.. whenever i come back from work, tao tao will jumping towards me n bring me to tuo tuo...
but now.. it's all become memory...

Hi babyying,
Your rabbits look underaged. How old are they? Do you know that underaged rabbits < 2 months old die easily if they are not around their family? They have a weak heart, weak mind and weak antibody. So if they lose too much sleep or appetite (which probably will happen if they are put into a new house) they can pass away just like that. Plus the lice makes it worse...baby rabbit's skin are so thin and undeveloped, too much of itchy lice and they can just die from skin infection.
I think most people still don't get the information that
RABBITS BELOW 2 MONTHS OLD SHOULDN'T BE SEPARATED FROM ITS FAMILY FIRST! THEY WILL DIE VERY EASILY! But nvm babyying, at least you know now...next time if you want to rare rabbit or any pet at all, remember to read information online and there are lots of information in this thread's 1st page (Lowyat Forum got lots of other Pet care threads too) and do further research through google or any search engine if needed. For any pet you want to bring back also, you need to check whether they are healthy or not. Some pets can spread diseases to another pet (and some even effect humans!).
From your photos I see you feed your rabbits with vegetable also, which is not recommended for baby rabbits. Vegetable contain a lot of water inside and your baby rabbits stomach can't process too much of it...which may lead to stomachache or diarrhea (cirit-birit/lao sai). I know a lot of people who accidently kill their baby rabbit cause feed too much of vegetable, and mostly carrots cause they see Bugs Bunny eating carrot a lot...
Vegetable are just sweet treats to rabbit, they are NOT their main food. Only give them sparingly. Veges for them is like candies/cakes/sweets to us...imagine what will happen if we didn't eat rice/bread but just eat candy all day right...even adult also will have stomach problem.
Anyways, I hope you stay strong and think positive. Be sure to do more reading and research online to keep a healthier pet in the future!
