Hello all,
My light grey flemish giant mouse has a eye infection of some sort. Iusauly would take her to the vet but I cant and havent been able tobecause of a bad ice storm. It is realy bad and has been bad sinceearly last night. My dad has a snow removal bussiness but nothing canbe done about the ice. It has been drizzaling non stop so salt and sandwont keep up and the only rabbit vet we have in the area cant get tohis office as well so I am realy in a bind.
Mouse has had eye problems before and has always cleared up butsometimes I have taken her in. The last time I took her in was lastjuly she was pregnant and I had to take her to a exotict vet since myvet that knows about rabbits was away. The exotic vet who charges aload of money since they know about exotics such as rabbits gave me aantibiotic for her wich caused her to abort her litter so I refuse togo there. The situation was that I sent her with my dad with a writtenletter stating that she had been breed 29 days ago and due to have alitter yada yada yada. The vet palpated her and said she was notpregnant and failed to inform us that the medicine wich cost 187dallors on top of the 200 dallor exam would cause her to abort if shewas. Well she was and she did. So yeah not going there againeven though mouse is not breed.
Two days ago her eye looked like it was starting to act up. I moved herto the house from the barn to miminize and dust there might be athoughits not dusty in the barn and she had been in the house for a while anyway so she hadnt been around any dust. The next morning her eye wasrunning so I called the vet and washed it out with boric acid mixture.couldnt get to the vet that day because of weather so hoped to try thismorning since it wasnt soppose to rain any more. LOL. It did and todayher eye has puss in it. Alot of puss. Hopefully the snow storm wontcome but was hoping that we had something around the house that wouldhelp. We have people medicines and also. Our naibor has some things forhis livestock and I could rundown there and borrow something, but cantgo anywhere else than that. Anybody have any ideas? Darn Iowa weather!
