Hi Folks I am confused about using a syringe and getting correct dosage. I have attached pics which may help you understand. My rabbit has a lot of pain due to dental issues and the vet recommended up to 2 ml of metacam each day. I the syringe in picture is what was in the box. I don’t want to...

Thanks it is 1.5mg/ml

Hi Folks My vet prescribed up to 2 ML of metacam with my rabbits food once a day. He is just under 2kg in weight.I get confused by the syringe which has got 0.1 0.2 upwards then at the bottom 1.0 which will it be?

That’s good to read this and 12 is a good age. I understand you fully and agree we know when it’s time to let go! Yes he’s active and loves running around the room and lots of stroking. I will keep you posted from the vet visit on Friday

That’s good to hear that it helped your rabbit I agree that if it helps relieve any pain and quality of life is still there then the rabbit has a right to live. Vets don’t know our pets like we do they make their decision based on fact and guidance. How old was your rabbit?

He’s booked in for this Friday with Sarah Pellet who comes recommended thanks

Thanks for the recommendation

Hi Folks. My rabbit who is 10 has a diet of soft pellets due to dental problems. My regular vet is off long term sick who used to file his teeth down every 6 weeks. I took him to pets at home vet who said she was shocked at how his back teeth were growing sideways in his mouth. She recommended...

Thanks again

What dosage did you give your bunny? Mine may need it long term my vet said 2mil a day with Calpol but I’m not giving him Calpol too risky on his liver

Thanks I’m ignoring it and using Metacam which he had today and he’s much perkier too! Reviews are very good using this too.

Yes he’s doing ok thanks

Hi folks. Hope you are all safe! My rabbit jasper who is a good 10 years old and can only eat softened pellets went to a different vet today to check his teeth. My regular vet is off sick long term so had to find another vet. The old vet used to file Jaspers teeth down regularly which helped him...

So sorry to read this this is the most difficult part of having pets but he was well cared for by you.

He’s started to eat again but I’m still taking him to vet to be check out. I will try syringe as last resort but thanks

My rabbit has stopped eating his soft pellets he’s an old boy 10 and only has spikes for teeth hence soft pellets. He usually does this when he is due for the vet to file his remaining teeth down but the vet is off sick. I have booked him in to another vet in 2 days to be examined my worry is if...

It was a one off he did when with me ages ago he usually goes in his tray in his cage. I have a doe she’s never done it yet but wondered what to look out for.

Not sure if any one has any tips on when you have your rabbit on your knee being cuddled stroked and relaxed If there is any tell tale sign they want to use toilet before they spray on you!

Both my rabbits lick me sometimes on my forehead too! Or when I’m combing their fur they lick my other hand. Try grooming him with brush!

it’s so sad 11 years is such a good age you have clearly looked after them well. I have a 10 year old lion head he’s doing well but I always dread the time when he gets sick. But if I were you I would chance the surgery. Only your vet can advise best. It will be so hard for the other rabbit if...
