I thought I'd introduce our latest arrival, Minty. It was a bit 'touch and go' when she first arrived just over 3 weeks ago but the vet gave her the all clear yesterday which is great news.

When she first arrived she was very underweight and had an upset tummy, luckily she loved the 'critical care':

The poor thing also had mites and bumblefoot (now treated and on the mend). She's soo good when it comes to her treatment:

The good news is that her tummy has settled down, shes gained a good bit of weight, her fur is growing back and the bumblefoot is clearing up very well.

So healing vibes to Minty, it is totally amazing how well behaved she is taking her antibiotics and cleaning her feet. She's perked up so much in the last week, shes like a different piggie.
 
Aww she is very pretty I am glad she is on the mend. Her poor feeties :(

I have always had the impression (with my own rabbit) that animals that haven't had the best start in life always seem a bit more loving and seem to just adore any kind of care and attention :)
 
Oh poor baby having been through so much. She is so cute. I really hope she is well soon.
 
bless her, glad shes on the mend and has someone to give her the tlc she deserves
 
Awwww poor sweetie, get well soon wishes and chin tickles x
 
She's very sweet :) Wheeks to a quick recovery. She'll soon be popcorning again! :)
