    Lethargic Lop- No immediate Vet Care available

    I wondered about that. I would likely only do it as a last resort then. He has started drinking out of the bowl again, but still won't eat pellets or hay. He has also started eating fresh veggies, but I'm not giving him much of them, so he's still on the Critical Care twice a day. The fecal...

    Henry Dale

    Henry was a gift for my daughter's 6th birthday. She had been begging for a bunny for years, and was a responsible helper with our other animals on our 5 acre farm, so we agreed. She named him after her Uncle Dale, (my brother) who passed away at 22 years of age, just before she got him. He is...

    Say hello to Chip...

    Chip is a stud. Love his chinchilla coloring. We have a lop as well, and I adore their ears. Hope he and Cali are fast friends!

    Lethargic Lop- No immediate Vet Care available

    Funny thing is, he only grinds his teeth when I'm getting ready to, or when I'm feeding him. I have been trying to set the Critical Care mix in a bowl and see if he is interested before syringe feeding, and he'll scoot up to smell it, then grind his teeth and lay back down. Like he hates the...

    Lethargic Lop- No immediate Vet Care available

    I just finished giving him his third round of meds and feeding. When I fed him last night, I noticed he had more fight in him, and resisted the syringe more than before. Same today, and he's swallowing more at a time. And he had the energy to wash his face between syringe fulls. He still refuses...

    Lethargic Lop- No immediate Vet Care available

    He is on .25 mL Meloxidyl (Oral) Every 12 hrs with food and .35 mL Enrofloxacin Strawberry (oral) every 12 hrs with food He's supposed to get 1.5 TBSP of the Critical Care, with water, daily. He had about 2.5 tsp at his first feeding before he quit swallowing, and I am just about to try to...

    Lethargic Lop- No immediate Vet Care available

    Yes, I stressed that he seemed quite sick, and most of the receptionists I spoke to agreed that a rabbit shouldn't wait very long, as they are fragile creatures. It wasn't that there were vets knowledgeable about rabbits, and they were full....I was calling every ER vet within 2 hours of me, and...

    Lethargic Lop- No immediate Vet Care available

    Update: I've read up on the links, and think Mucoid Enteritis seems to fit his symptoms and his stool appearance the best. I went to our local farm store, but they have nothing for treating coccidia in small animals - only ruminants and cows. The staff looked into options and tried their best to...

    Lethargic Lop- No immediate Vet Care available

    Thank you for the info JBun. I am going to read up on the links now, and will make sure he doesn't get anymore banana. As far as trying our local farm store for a coccidia treatment...is there a certain product I should look for? I googled, and found that CORRID can be used, however, all other...

    To neuter or not?

    I'd agree with JBun. We have a 2 year old intact male. Also our only rabbit, and will never be bred. He doesn't spray, is housebroken, very docile and sweet. I personally don't see the benefits to neutering (given his personality and lack of bad habits) being worth the surgery/cost. A friend has...

    Lethargic Lop- No immediate Vet Care available

    We have a 2 year old male Holland Lop that is suddenly (last day or 2) lethargic. He is still eating a little, and seems to be drinking a lot of water. (?) He is my 8 year old daughters treasured pet, and she takes very good care of him. She had him out in his run in the grass 2 days ago, and...
