Thank you all for your kind words and compassion. We all miss our little spoiled prince, it's hard to walk by his bedroom still and even his 'frenemy' companion bunny has been sad. They had just started bonding after over a year together (both males and did not get along at all initially so they...
So his eye actually improved to the point that there is no swelling and he had it open and clear but yesterday the infection came back and now he can't walk and his whole side is swollen. He stopped eating and he is just sitting in the corner. 🙁 He has an appointment in a few hours
Update- new vet did not seem as concerned, just advised to continue meds and this is normal healing for a large infection. They said it doesn't appear to be spreading and the swelling seems to be minimal, pressure behind eye is minimal. He has been more tolerant of being picked up today which...
Thank you! We are at a different vet right now, we gave them the medications he is taking and are waiting for them to call us while he's inside. He is still spunky as ever and we made sure to tell this vet he is behaving normal and eating. I'll see what they say and ask about switching...
Earliest available appointment was 1pm tomorrow, my sister deals with mostly cats but recommended warm compress before cleaning to draw more out and relieve the pressure- she thinks it's likely looking worse because it was behind the eye and now coming to the surface and draining. Sent her the...
Thanks I will be calling around this afternoon to see if there are other vets with experience in rabbits. I think by the time his Wednesday appointment comes around it may be too late...
Just as FYI he came from a reptile show so I'm sure he doesn't have great genetics since he was mass bred as a feeder, he is still eating his favorite foods (although not enthusiastically) which is a small piece of banana followed by fresh basil and cilantro (he prefers mint to cilantro but it's...
I have a 4-5 year old rex named Whyley who was having a little watery eye so we took him to a vet who said his eye had a scratch and gave us lubricating drops- after a few days his eye rapidly got worse and was almost sealed shut with white pus- we took him to the emergency vet (on Christmas...
Yes I am sure he is claiming her as he "chins" her when she's in the room and definitely prefers her attention. Also perhaps he doesn't like that the cat prefers me to him (she can get annoyed when he demands groomings with his head butts and if she isn't in the mood she jumps high up and bops...
He was neutered 6 months ago, and if we try to pick him up he throws a fit and will do the run away high kick into his "house" and won't come out again 🙄. He's actually peed ON my girlfriend before and he looked pretty pleased about it, he didn't run away afterwards (I told her he just...
Also he has plenty of tunnels and boxes and hay. And here's a photo after my girlfriend sat with him for a bit then got up for 10 minutes to take a shower- he immediately covered the spot she was sitting
