Sherwood Pet Health Rabbit Emergency kit and Bulk Recovery Food (Small kit)

I am extremely happy, they sent me this so fast. I was so desperate and it got here the next day!-To be safe I would pay asap delivery (I didn’t because I had other feedings)This product made my job so much easier because he liked it. My rabbit was going through GI stasis, I ran out of the critical food my vet prescribed. I was then force feeding this owbow and he hated me lol. It was quite the fight every feeding.My rabbit did not have much of an appetite but once I gave him a taste of the appetite stimulate he was looking for more. I had to syringe feed him the food packets and I went with my veterinarian instructions. He would eat on his own small amounts and I would increase feeding times I was in between jobs so I fed him every 2-3hours around the clock. It wasn’t hard because he was willing only by syringe. Waking up throughout the night was hard, but I did it. It’s not bad because he was more hungry at nights (that was motivation for me) and it would take less than 10-15 minutes total .When I worked (3)12 I fed him 6am, came home for lunch (I didn’t eat) 12pm, 7:50p, 11pm, 1am , 4am (I know it was crazy)When I worked my new job (5) 8hour I fed him: 6am,3:00 usually, 6p, 9p,12am,3amI didn’t feed him the whole packet I fed based on my veterinarian amount and what my rabbit would allow.Point is do what you can. If financially possible you can hire someone to make visit(s) to feed your rabbit while at work. It’s not expensive. I didn’t know these people existed.He’s so much better, completely eating on his own. Don’t give up.My rabbit is a mini Rex - anyone who has the same breed should absolutely have this on hand, they are at extreme high risk. This is my 4th time dealing with GI stasis and sometimes it just happens. I had rabbits for 30years and this is the first rabbit I ever had to experience Gi stasis with.First picture with him laying down flat, you can tell he’s not feeling well, in pain, this is the day I went to the veterinary ER. He lost weight. 2nd picture he is feeling so much better, following me around the house. I can tell he’s thankful.

love, love, love that it has multiple mini-packs in the bag! this product has been a life-saver for my bunny(ies) many, many, many times over!it comes with a few appetite enhancer(s) that you mix with (warm) water & also a few mini-packs of the green-food, itself.it's basically powdered-pellets that you mix with (warm) water to feed the sick bunny. i've had bunnies that lap it up from the bowl & i've had bunnies that needed to be syringed with this food.when i tried blending my current pellets i got a sloppy-mess or the mixture wound up being too large to pass through the syringe.TOTAL life-saver!!!!!!!!!!!

My rabbit absolutely hates Oxbow Cirtical care, I had to force feed it to her at one point. She never had an interest in even sniffing it. She's able to take any medication with ease, but the Oxbow Critical Care is the only thing I would have to wrestle her to take it. Meanwhile, I took a few packets of Sherwood Critical Care out of the bag and she was going nuts for this! This is quite promising, I am assuming she will be able to take this when she is in a dire situation. She is very prone to G.I. stasis as she's diagnosed with megacolon, but so far she doesn't need critical care yet. It is quite expensive, but if it means my rabbit will be able to eat it willingly then it's worth the money.

I really like the way the emergency food is portioned into separate small bags. In other critical care, it's all in one bag that has to be used up or discarded and if you dont need the whole bag it is wasted. The small pouches make it easy to only use what you need. The appetite restore didn't seem to really make a difference for my rabbit but it did help us get some more fluid in him and he was more readily taking it because it is essentially banana sugar water. We did not use the included syringe for our rabbit as it was a little too short and food didn't get far enough in to where he had to swallow. Might be better for smaller pets. I definitely think having this in your emergency kit is important and it really helped my rabbit get through GI stasis.

One of my rabbits kept having stasis episodes at least once a year so I decided to buy this pack to have in my emergency first aid kit. My rabbit started showing very early signs of stasis and all the meds administered from her last ER vet had expired, so I didn’t want to chance it and gave her baby gas drops and this Sherwood emergency kit. I used one pack of the appetite restore mix and syringe fed my rabbit and the package said in 1-3 hours your rabbit should start eating, and sure enough at the 2 hour mark, my rabbit was pooping, eating, and drinking water! This kit is a huge lifesaver if you’re in a pinch, but always keep a close eye on your rabbit just in case you need to go to the emergency vet.

If you have a rabbit you should definitely keep this on hand. Have used this and critical care and definitely prefer this brand. Love the individual packets so stays fresher longer. Works great.

One of my bunnies has had chronic digestive issues with frequent bouts of GI stasis. The other formulas provided by both my vet and the emergency vet (Critical Care and Selective) are not tolerable to my bunny and most of it ends up on me! Thank God for Sherwood, not only does my bunny let me syringe feed this to him, but I can actually put it in a bowl, and he'll eat it all on his own! I'm not surprised because unlike the others, this smells so fresh and good. This has been a lifesaver and has given my bunny his health back. The packets of appetite stimulant are a much-added benefit to help with recovery. Better than yucky medicine! My only problem is that my other bunny who is not sick, has discovered how good this stuff is and races to clean out the bowl! I'm so glad I tried Sherwood. It is totally worth it. I wish the veterinarians would distribute this rather than the other stuff.
