    Loosing hair dripping eye

    I sent an email to my vet to see if she has any thoughts, I was hoping it was a side affect to the antibiotics and he would get stronger, but it's getting worse not better. I'm sure being put under or the antibiotics affected his system, too coincidental not to be. But I'm not a rabbit...

    Loosing hair dripping eye

    Snickers is done with his antibiotics and this is the first day with no puss in his eyes and his eye lids are not pink or swollen. But unfortunately he is now totally crippled on his back legs, so ask yourself would you want dripping eyes or being crippled. He can no longer pull his legs under...

    Loosing hair dripping eye

    Yes he was eating and acting normal except for the dripping eye and infection, after putting him under for X-rays and antibiotics he lost the strength in his back legs, this morning he is licking his mineral block, eating his pellets and drinking, he is alert. This will be the 10th day of...

    Loosing hair dripping eye

    Hello JBun, I noticed that his back legs are wobbly and when his butt falls over it takes the rest of him with it, his front legs are stable and so is his head. This is the response from my vet. I do not feel that Snickers has an ear infection (otitis interna), because he does not have a head...

    Loosing hair dripping eye

    Thanks JBun & Katiecrna, I have been trying to keep his face dry and clean with a warm wet cloth and then dry it with a dry paper towel, if the dripping stops will the hair grow back? When i let him out of the cage to hop around it appears that he has an equilibrium problem, he hops then falls...

    Loosing hair dripping eye

    The vet called me today and said the blood work looked ok, and besides that she really had no answers, she said keep giving him the antibiotics and the eye drops. I asked her why his eye looked cloudy and she said it was a cataract, I was reading a thread below mine by (BunzworthBentley) titled...

    Loosing hair dripping eye

    We went to the vet again and did some more test to find out why Snikers eyes keep running, the X-rays showed that the teeth are not the problem, they sent some samples to the lab, they did say that his blood looked a little anemic but we won't know until lab work comes back. They gave me an...

    Loosing hair dripping eye

    Thank you JBun, I do have another appointment made for the vet on Friday, do you know what the average age that a rabbit lives. Unfortunately with age we pet owners need to make that sick decision when it's foolish to continue vet care. I spent $4,000 trying to save our Rag Doll cat and he did...
