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.

[@elizabethmckessick154]

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

[@torioakley6000]

I am SO glad you added this. I adopted my little guy and I need to get him neutered. This came up in my recommended and is the second rabbit surgery vid I’ve seen today. Neither rabbit in either vid made it so I was starting to get VERY nervous. More than I already was.

[@jamieandrew-kromer8008]

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.

[@nirvanasanctuary7691]

@@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 :)

[@nirvanasanctuary7691]

@@jamieandrew-kromer8008 Absolutely, the vets did everything possible but sometimes it can be an underlying condition or allergy that no one was aware of & it can happen to any animal including us. Anesthesiologists are supremely skilled people doing a very difficult job, it must be a terrible weight to lose a patient. Our vet does blood work before anesthetic to determine if they're fit for the op & heart/lung checks also. They do everything they can to ensure it's safe but in a tiny percent of cases it goes wrong.

[@Pythonaria]

It was so sad that Cookie passed away but he left beautiful little bunnies. One being so like him is very special.

[@ihave2channelsfollowmyothe578]

I'm sorry but I just don't trust this guy this is the 2nd time I have seen him do a bunny surgery or care and the bunny has died and especially since this time it was a spay and neuter all the vets that i went to, to ask them questions about the spay and neuter had a anesthesia test to see if it would go good for the bunny or not but he did not do that he went straight into the procedure basically what im saying is hes not really specialized in exotic animals and should stay with the regular dogs and cats

[@Pythonaria]

@@ihave2channelsfollowmyothe578 Unfortunately, anaesthesia can kill some animals, even us humans. Why we have to sign a form acknowledging this before we have an op. Whenever I've had to get a cat neutered or spayed, I've had to sign an anaesthesia form for them and it states very clearly the risks. As for this sad episode, you do not know if an anaesthesia test was carried out prior or not. Remember, this is filmed and they have to convolute maybe several hours into a few minutes to keep within the programme time slot on TV. We don't see half of what really goes on.

[@emilyowens]

It is and they really do try everything in there power to get the patient back as well, and yes you are trained for that you are trained on what to do to get them back but you are not with the loss just told its ok to take a minute to recover but you will then need to put on a face and continue like nothing happened the saying is you cannot cry more over the patient then then owners, you need to be there for them. Sorry for the long post I was trained as a vetinary assistant and shows like this are pretty accurate with behind the scenes

[@beckyhartley9502]

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.

[@jenat82]

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.

[@anyjen]

@@jenat82 considering how many dogs die alone and unadopted in shelters, even a couple of years in the home of a person who will adore it will make a huge difference in the life of that 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. Depression and loneliness are huge issues for elderly people that can effectively shorten their lives, because it may cause them to neglect their own care or actively work against it.

[@jenat82]

@@anyjen that's a problem too. But i hope you do realise there are many dogs that don't get a home cos of dog aggression. Not really the dogs fault. Nor can you blame people for not taking that on. Especially if they have children.

[@sharonandrews6985]

Scott sure did. Bless his heart. I'm glad I found this channel. Such wonderful people.

[@gina928]

I appreciate Dr. Scott's care and love for the animals he treats. I wish I could find a vet like that where I live. Most are pretty blah.

Lovely Babs getting Molly was so much a happy cry. Those baby bunnies are beyond adorable 😍

[@bethanysmith5856]

Aww, Babs seems like a very sweet lady. It's wonderful that she wants a new dog. I'm so happy that she got Molly.

[@tylerrozie]

cookie looks like a lionhead rabbit. i have one and they are beautiful!! their fluffy head is a dorable and they make great pets. the only thing is the fur on their bum can stick to their feces, so make sure to keep their bum trimmed and cleaned!

[@danielledewitt1]

When we were kids me amd my sister had a rabbit called Pinky.

[@tellmethesongoftherain6534]

Poor Cookie, you just tried so hard to save him. If you could have saved him, I’d be so happy if you did, And I’m still happy that you tried to do so. I wish you well during these hard times, - Sincerely, Anonymous.

[@kendallcheramie]

Who else is nervous about that little dog chewing up that red ball. He's gonna be back at Scott's to get pieces of that ball out from his stomach.

[@Panda72021]

I was also nervous. Clearly a chewer, should get him more durable toys. I know of Bark Super Chewer (only because I've seen the ads) which sells hefty chew toys, but unfortunately don't ship outside the US (I checked out of curiosity 😆).

[@unseasoned.chicken.tender]

i was quite nervous too

[@anncolvin7448]

Babs story makes me love this show even more.

[@LadyAndromeda1234]

Babs' letter lowkey made me cry. She's so sweet and the letter's equal parts adorable and heartbreaking.

[@abmoralesrosado]

Poor cookie! His only crime was sneaking one in!

[@rebekahweber2413]

Be a good boy and he would not have been in that position. Another one that followed hormones to utter ruin. So sad. History just keeps repeating. I wish he was not in the situation and I feel bad for Scott and Nathan. Such a sad outcome. Another testimony to keep under control.

The older lady and her new baby pup 🐶 warmed my heart god bless her and her new baby pup 🐶 ❤

[@itsneela]

what i really love- they just see the save place for an animal not the age of the new owner- in germany lots of elderly get rejected when applying for a dog or a cat because of their age- but i think especially for elderlys who are alone an animal companion can be a great life addition and very helpful

[@testerwulf3357]

I know right?? Elderly could use a pet more than most of us..It gives them company and something to care for.

[@irimac1806]

But the thing is, you need to be able to provide for them and also have the proper documents and so on for that. Unless they have an ally that would be ready to sign a contract for the shelter that theyre willing to take the dog on 3x-5x a walk a day its gonna be hard to provide for them.

[@XSemperIdem5]

@@irimac1806 that was probably key to her getting the dog, she said she had friends who would walk the dog.

[@eleanorcooke7136]

My Nana is getting a new dog. She's just gone 80 but luckily has the money to be able to pay for a walker. Recently, her old dog Reese (dachshund x poodle) had tumours due to Cushing's so she had to put him down. What the shelter wants to know is if someone will look after the dog after she dies.

[@cherylbeldin2739]

I remember when I worked for the Federal Government in the late 70's. One of my teammates told me about a rabbit named "Thumper". He was used by the scientist to help breed many, many rabbits they needed for test subjects. He was suppositively a very happy rabbit being mated to many female rabbits.

[@luzarredondo23]

Major respect for the vets and vet nurses!! You do all your best and yet you get completely devastated when you lose one and it isn’t easy at all. Not your fault and remember that you did all you could and use the best of your knowledge and experience to help the creatures you assist! Don’t give up!!
