Have Bentley his injection today and I noticed that a tiny bit leaked out(did not see any white but did feel a tiny bit of wetness) I wiped it with my hands and quickly went to get a wet towel to wipe him off but when I came back he already started to lick. I quickly stopped him and clean him...

My bunny has a abscess on this stomach region. We are going daily baytril and penicillin G procaine injections. Had an appointment this morning and vet said it looks less red/inflamed and was even a bit smaller. If baytril doesn’t work, I would definitely ask about the pen G injections

everything welll today! Still got air but I made sure there was no blood nor the needle was on the other side. I double checked his neck just in case and did not find any penicillin on his fur so I am pretty sure I injected where I needed. does anyone know if i can order needles online? I was...

@Watermelons I have them separate. the syringes have thier own packaging and so do the needles. Ill try wetting his fur tomorrow. Hopfully it goes smoothly, I feel so bad already :(

@Watermelons I think so. I twist it as much as it can go and when I change the needle it takes a bit to unscrew it

would water make the injection less sterile?

I will try again tomorrow I guess, This time Ill wet him fur so I can see his skin better. Would alcohol make it sting more?

@JBun yea. When I stick the needle in, I pull the plunger to check for blood before injecting it. When the vet showed me she said that the plunger when under the skin should have a "suction" and that I should not be getting air. But everytime i pull the plunger I get air in the synring so I am...

I watched that exact video almost 5 times. My poor guy had to be pricked so many time. I just kept getting air and I was too scared to inject it bc it was not negative pressure. My vets closed and since tomorrow is sunday they are also closed.

Hi all, I have started Pen G procaine injection and I just tried my self. Everytime I pull the plunger I get air. The vet tech and how i saw on video is that the plunger should go back to the original place and I pull it back. Anyone have suggestions?

@JBun that was my understanding as well. I was given extra doses and needles/syringes so I could dose him daily.

@JBun do you know if giving penG procaine (without the benzathine) every 48 hours is as effective as given every 24 hours? The concentration is 300K. I actually showed my vet the study done by Marcy Moore and emailed her as well. Marcey said that since its only Procaine, it should be injected...

@TreasuredFriend for Bene Bac? or the antibiotics? For benebac I forgot to ask when I went for my appointment so i thought to ask on here. As for the antibiotics, I am giving him 0.65 ml of baytril every 12 hours and 0.2 ml of the procaine injection every 48 hours. Now this was a part I had a...

4 days after Bentley's neuter, I discovered a quite large swelling above the neuter incision. I emailed the vet and brought him in the following Tuesday. The vet mentioned that it's likely a abscess and prescribed baytril, metacam and gabapentin. I don't think the baytril will do anything...

For those who decided to do bloodwork for thier buns for surgery, in my case neuter, if the pre-op bloodwork usually done the day of surgery or a few days before surgery?

Does anyone have experiences with Bolton vet in CT? For neuter/spay. There was a thread about them but that was from 14 years ago so I really don’t think any of the information is up to date. TIA

Bentley doesn't have the best litter habit as he is not neutered yet (we will be doing so soon) and sometime when he is in deep sleep i notice he has a habit of peeing where he is. At first I thought it was a UTI or something worse like neurological but a vet visit ruled both out. He only does...

Does anyone have nationwide insurance and have a idea if any plans cover spay and neuter? is the insurance worth it? Thanks

Does anyone have experience with Kensington bird and animal hospital? They are definitely pricy but based on some research I believe they have a lot of experience. Bc of his retained testicle I’m just extra worried about anesthesia. Any other recommendation would be greatly appreciated!
