    Floppy

    You came here on the 20th August 2008 and met Harley. It was like love at first sight. Before this you were at the RSPCA and adopted out to a person who didn't have much idea about rabbits. We told Auntie Tracy that Harley needed a girlfriend and in a few days she rang and told us about you...

    Floppy again!

    Very good news. Floppy is about 80% better. Last night she started eating pellets again and drinking water herself. We really thought we were going to lose her on Thursday evening. We stayed up all night with them on Thursday night having just an hours sleep each. Harley goit back to normal...

    Floppy again!

    Just an update on how Flops has been getting on. She has been back to the vet because she wasn't eating much earlier, no pellets or hay just treats which were making her have diahrrea. We also mentioned stronger pain meds. The vet can't offer anything stronger that we can give orally but he...

    Floppy again!

    Thanks Tracy. I will phone the vets tomorrow and let you now then, if thats ok? I'll text you tomorrow when I've spoken to the vets. Although I am at the hospital tomorrow at 9 but I will phone at 8. Which pain meds would be the best? Feeling really confused at the moment. Don't know if...

    Floppy again!

    She's home now. The vet did only give us Septrin to use for 20 days but only metacam as a pain killer. While she was at the vet she had metacam, Dolorex (butorphanol), Ketaset and Atipam. Whatever they are! :P Would it be worth getting something stronger if she seems to be struggling? She's...

    Floppy again!

    Just heard from the vet. Floppy has tooth root problems. She had her abscess lanced, drained and is left open. She is coming home at 5pm. She has some septrin and will be having convenia injections. Now I have to get my head around having two bunnies who will die from tooth root problems. I am...

    What might cause these symptoms? (pneumonia)

    Hope Sky gets on ok at the vets and Badgers x-ray goes ok. We all know you will do all you can for your Buns.

    Floppy again!

    She will be on anti biotics and she had a Convenia injection tonight (thanks Tilly! :)) Charles said that because of the metacam she is on, it could be masking the pain. We do feel a bit bad that we didn't pick it up quick enough :( Hopefully they will both be fine. They are very...

    Floppy again!

    Floppy's back from the vets now. The vet suspects an abscess so she is in for a GA on Wednesday to drain and flush it. Also, the vet thinks there is a small abscess on her jaw - just like Minnie. He said an x-ray may be worthwhile to see what her teeth are like but is not necessary. She was...

    Floppy again!

    Floppys dewlap has swollen more today. We are taking her to the vet at 5.10 so fingers crossed. Would it be best to ask for a biopsy on the lump?
  13. MPHF

    Floppy again!

    The lump is attached and is very hard. Is it common for an abscess to be hard? She is still eating, drinking, pooing and peeing normally. She is acting as if nothing is wrong. We have a vet appointment booked for tomorrow evening for Minstrel and Penguins jabs but will change it so Floppy can...

    Floppy again!

    Today, we found a hard lump in Floppy's dewlap. She has been on Metacam since christmas time because of the beginning's of arthiritis in her leg which she broke last year. We think she is a Holland lop at about 6 nearly 7 years old. Everything is normal, eating, pooing, weeing but she seems to...

    Hope Badger gets on ok. Tilly will always be remembered especially for making Minnie so happy and comfortable.
