I am thinking that it would not hurt to give him a dose of a probiotic like benebac. I have added that to my own treatment regime with a few of my bunnies. Sometimes it is difficult to determine what is causing the problem. Keeping him off veggies and on hay for a few days sounds like a...

Do you feed hay?? If so what kind? It sounds like you free feed pellets to both of them? She is very cute.

I hope that you stay on the forum . You will make a lot of friends ; most of us have gone through illness and death with our rabbits..... and all of us tend to blame ourselves when something terrible happens but most of time it isn't in our control :feelbetter:

This is a really heart breaking story of an EXCELLENT rabbit owner who did everything that she could to treat and save her rabbit. You did nothing but help her. It is often difficult to find a a vet who is truly rabbit knowledgeable and I do believe that neither vet zeroed in on the issue ...

Bunny should be kept in a confined space until you get him properly examined by a rabbit knowledgeable vet. He shouldn't be using the leg. I just found this interesting article by the former administrator of RO. There are more articles on Medi-rabbit that I will post for you.....lots to...

The photo did not come through ... Can you describe the bumps in more detail? Are they red and Inflamed? Can you give us more info in your bunny ? Does he live outdoors?

I am so very sorry for your loss. He was darling! You are a great bunny owner and Totoro was lucky to have such a loving mom. I hope that you decide to bring another little ND into your life again sometime soon Rabbits are delicate plain and simple... like I said before many of us have been...

Oh I am so sorry that you lost him but give yourself a break. You did the very best that you could for him. All of us have lost rabbits and it seems like all of us tend to blame ourselves even when it isn't our fault. Rabbits are not easy pets (to say the least) Now you need to take care of...

I hope that you can keep us up-dated on how she and the kits are doing ..and also maybe you can get a night's sleep now...you have been through a lot also !!!!

It is ideal to give a variety of multiple different hays and cuts of hay. I know this is not always possible because of cost and what is available. The different textures of each type of hay and grasses cause a rabbit to chew in multiple ways thus better wearing down the teeth uniformly . In...

I am wondering what type of group took her???

Is he on Metacam..just wondering if a pain medication change might help you? I have never used tramadol but I have heard that it is a great pain reliever... or even something stronger if it would not affect his quality of life :-(

:imsorry: .... I didn't think that the situation looked good. What a terrible loss but you did the right thing. I am sure that he had a wonderful life with you ((Hugs)) If you still have Georgie's remains it is best to let Pebbles see ( and spend time with) his body so that she will know that...

I am also shocked that she gave birth . The pregnancy was not normal as these issues do not occur in a normal pregnancy ..passing a lot of blood is not normal . Did she eat the placentas? I would not give her the probiotic that you bought as I know nothing about it and it seems more like a...

Dana Krempels article is an EXCELLENT resource ..yes, I know that this is information overload but it may help to read it http://www.2ndchance.info/bunnies.htm

Actually abscesses on rabbits are often removed because they are encapsulated which means they are walled off and will not drain easily because of the thickness of rabbit pus. If an abscess is opened and a drug regime started the abscess would need to be flushed Sometimes an abscess can be...

Rabbits can have PEDIALYTE which is an electrolyte drink for children. The fruit flavors do have some sugar in it but it has never caused issues with my rabbits. Pedialyte is a clear liquid which has no dairy

I agree that this is a very difficult situation. Would your vet teach you to do sub q fluids at home.? It would be so much easier to keep him hydrated. I am fairly certain that the sedation is from the drug ..but you cannot allow him to be in pain either. Do you have any idea how he fractured...

Because of the anatomy of a rabbit's head (particularly lop and dwarf breed with "pushed in " faces) the lacrimal ducts (tear ducts), upper molars and nasal cavity are in very close proximity to each other. Thus a rabbit with an infection in a back upper molar may have discharge from an eye...

Do you have animal dentists in Poland? Some dentists treat exotics which would include rabbits . My bun with malocclusion was treated by an animal dentist rather than an exotics vet.
