I was told not to do that. Our first vet prescribed 100cc sub qs to my 1.3 kilos bunny. The second one told not to give more than 50 cc sub q in addition to the Critical Care. I was told so many wrong things by vets. That my bunny's droopy face was just a cosmetic problem or he had a brain tumor...

This picture was taken today. I took Wasabi to the backyard for a walk. His last one.

He didn't make it. I was taking him to a vet and he died in my arms on the way there. Thank you for helping me. RIP Wasabi.

They do not have appointments today and for emergency I would have to take him to a vet who is not bunny savvy. His prognosis was grave to begin with. I managed to give him fluids today it was just harder than usual.

It used to be easier to do sub qs. Now Wasabi's skin feels thicker I am having a hard time to insert a needle. It's also more difficult to make a tent out of his skin. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Thank you. I stopped giving him yogurt and I am giving him metronidazol later today. I was told it has to be 72 hours between injections. I gave him 1/4 teaspoon of benebac yesterday and I should have it in gel form today. The vet told me to stop motility medication and it seems to stop the...

Thank you.

Yes. A few times. He is very sick. GI stasis, diarrhea, ear infection. I refused to put him down and now I am thinking if I did the right thing. He gets better for a little bit, then turns to the worse, then again small improvement and gets worse even more. He had a great appetite a few hours...

Around his tummy mostly. A bit to one side.

My holland lop bunny was getting 50cc fluids by vet's recommendations. Yesterday he didn't pee and the vet said to give an extra 50. After I gave him another sub q today I noticed the fluids have not absorbed after 6 hours. It is possible I gave him slightly more because it was a new bag and...

Got a hold of the vet and she insists that yogurt is fine. She doesn't know how much of powdered benebac to give. The instruction on the package says 1 tea spoon for 1-5 lbs of weight. It sounds like too much.

Well, this vet is probably the best bunny doctor within 1 hour drive around me. I have bene-bac but I am not sure how much to give him. The vet was supposed to call 2 hours ago and I am still waiting.

He is eating Critical Care and pellets. Greens just very little. And he is not eating hay at all. I give him non-fat plain greek yogurt. I started giving him yorurt along with TMS so I am not sure with one to blame.

His poop is very loose. He is taking TMS and the vet suggested giving him 1cc of non-fat yogurt twice a day. The diarrhea started yesterday.

And now diarrhea. :bigtears::bigtears: Can I give Pepto Bismol to a bunny?
