Thank you Whitelop, that helps.

This morning,I took the very hard decision to let my beloved rabbit Ficellego.Not even one month after finishing an intensive peniciilin treatment she developped a bulging eye on her left side and when I went to the vet her incisors were all crooked.The prospects were grimm and involved more...

Thanks for your answers.My vet is supposed to be rabbit knowledgeable ( hum ). Chloamphenicol doesn't work anymore, at least, last time it was used it dd not work. I will definitley ask for a dilution of Duplocillin even though lactated ringers sounds like an exotic skin disease and I will...

It is me again, with my sick bunny again.My spayed, 8 years old angora bunny has a respiratory tract infection.She has been on various form of antibiotics since march at least.In may, she has been given 4 intramuscular injections every three days ( Duplocillin) .As of the 8Th of june, she has...

Thank you for the advice, I do plan to call the vet tomorrow. I ALMOST refilled the syringe with the same needle but stoppped in time.... I even filled the syring with water and it took three tons pf pressure before it finally went through.

I have to inject Duplocilin and IT DOES NOT WORK !!! I am supposed to inject .5ml but everything jams up hard as concrete after 0.25ml. Rabbitt is slowly turning into a sieve. Any suggestions ? I am litteraly painting my walls with the medicine trying to unjam everything ... Darn it.

For the better part of the last three months, my bunny has been on antibiotics.Baytril and Chlorpalm.She gets a little better and then goes back to breathing hard. It seems that the antibiotics are barely keeping up with the disease. I would like to try Zithromax but I wonder if I should just...

Ok, went to the vet yet again.My bun was breathing too fast even though she was alert, eating and stomping.My vet her breathing was a concern but we are not at the awful euthanasia stage, far from it.She said nose cultures are not reliable enough in her experience, she offered to xray her lungs...

Crapola, what to do now ? Tonight she is better but Ithink that her breathing could be improved.I did see sparks fly from her hind legs when I tried to pick her out of her cage for free time...Talk about about a 180. I don't want to antagonise my vet but I still want a healthy bunny for a...

Came back from the vet, switched from Chlorpalm to Baytril as of wednesday night. My rabbit is 7.4 pounds and her dosage is 1ml morning and evening. Bayrtil concentration is 20mg/ml.I can assure you , it is not the liver flavored one, if anything it is the strawberry/watermelon flavor...
