    Help! rabbit has bad head tilt and closed eye

    I also wanted to say I feel so much better taking boo to this new vet. She seemed very knowledgeable and was very nice at helping explain everything to me. I just wish he could have had he combi pen g instead of just the pen g by itself.

    Help! rabbit has bad head tilt and closed eye

    Update! So I went to the zoo vet last night and she gave my boo a pen g shot not the combi one. I was upset about that because she says it's a preservative and that's not healthy for him.

    Help! rabbit has bad head tilt and closed eye

    You know what I just thought of something. I wonder if I could give him the sulfa every couple hours since it has such a short half life. I don't understand why the vet thinks this will help and not the baytril when the Baytril stayed in his system longer! He told me to give the sulfa twice a...

    I swear this vet wants my boo to die! He told me right away yesterday when I saw him that I need to put him down. Didn't even offer the sulfa until I said why havent you guys given him other meds to try ? Why only Baytril? And they only gave him a short course of Baytril every time. So he really...
