I have a new rabbit in the house - a youngin to keep my other rabbit company. While playing in the kitchen today, I noticed she was dropping cecals all over the place. Mind you, until now I've actually never known what one looked like - my two year old cottontail has never had troubles with...

I've had a lovely, super well-behaved slightly anti-social 3-legged rabbit (Cannoli) for about 2 years now. Since her recovery, she's brought nothing but joy to us - she's in good health, easy to take care of, and asks very little of us. That said, I also have a nine month old now. Don't...

How are you making out? When I rehabbed my cottontail I made a formula from condensed milk, cairo syrup and eggs if I remember correctly - try searching for the ingredients online, it worked well for me. I want to copy a previous posters sentiment and warn that cat wounds, however minor, can be...

I'm curious how your friend is making out. I can tell you from experience that a povidone iodine solution (aka betadine) is farsuperior for wound treatment when applied correctly, instead of peroxide. Your standard otc povidone should be diluted with water to a quarter strength or so - using a...

Well, first and foremost surprise! Canolli isn't a he, she is a she we discovered yesterday. That was the least obtrusive news. An xray showed what I thought - there was some spinal trouble happening. In particular, it looks like there's infection pressing against Canollis spine from...

He is active, but his gait is disrupted in the rear. When he wants to he can move quickly, and he jumped up onto a mini chair yesterday (maybe 6-9 inches high) so he can jump. He falls over often, and sometimes runs sideways however. When he is in his cage he lays down a lot - but maybe he just...

So my fine gentleman can move around still - he had a Grand time today in the kitchen exploring - and is laying in his cage. I checked in on him, and he was laying stretched out on his belly. His back didn't quite look right to a paranoid bunny dad, so I'm wondering if he could have a back...

Thanks for the dosing link! I did give him a very small dose of Metacam today and wandered off to work. Me mum sent me some pictures throughout the day - he is apparently very happy to explore, and she was able to move both legs without meeting resistance from the rabbit (IE no pain). I poked...

As an afterthought, I have some metacam here from his surgery a couple months ago. Would it be wise to give him some, and if so does anyone have a dosage chart?

Hullo all, I'm the proud owner of a miracle bunny who survived amputation of a front leg given awful odds, and my little hero has been doing well overall. He's a five month old cottontail, eats, drinks, and does all his business normally. This morning I noticed he was falling over more...

How is this little guy doing? Just curious. Hope he is feeling better!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_FxB4p4y9Wo&feature=youtube_gdata_player Sir Canolli has some infection in his incision area still in three separate spots. I'm hoping the vet will help clean them up tomorrow - this puss is so thick I can't possibly squeeze it out right now (he has four...

Well, Canolli is still alive and mostly well. He had his bandages removed last Tuesday. He was super happy about it, but then started chewing at his sutures so we had to cover him in a sock jacket. Hated the sock jacket, and finally back into bandages Thursday. Sutures out Tuesday, and all he...

An inch sounds big to me, but I'm no expert. I can tell you that my vet first lanced Canolli's abscess to determine what was inside. Bunny puss can get very thick - I've heard it described as cottage cheese or toothpaste, but I personally liken it to greasy pizza cheese. Either way, it's thick...

Betadine (povidone iodine) as a diluted mixture can be put into the wound opening, just don't saturate it. Diluting to.2.5% should do the trick, and won't harm your friend if he licks at it. If you use the ointment be careful how much, it can mat the fur up and make things difficult / worse...

My good friend Canolli, who (if you've seen my other post) is well on his way to recovery from a right foreleg amputation has a strange / worrisome reflex the passed couple days. I've had him mostly on timothy hay and water to keep his digestion clean while he's recovering, with the occasional...

In preemptive self defense, by the way, he is only in the small aquarium short term. Once he heals up we will be investing in a nice indoor cage and getting him litter trained. Recommendations for a good indoor hutch?

:biggrin: I have pictures and YouTube uploads. How do I upload a picture here? I'll find my link for one of his videos and post it too. Not quick books pos? I have experience with the version nine multi store inventory module and it isn't bad, but has some definite drawbacks.
