Hi
I posted what I'm about to say on somebody else's thread which I later realised was from November and therefore would not get anymore replies.
I have currently got a bunny who was recently diagnosed with rabbit syphillis-I was told by numerous people that it is incurable except by penicillin but that would come with major risks and large costs. Another lady I knew tried the penicillin approach and it ended very badly. With many sad rabbit deaths. The only thing I was advised to do was administer some steroid cream onto her genitals. You said that penicillin can save a rabbit and is not too costly. Please, how likely is it I can save my bunny with penicillin? Can I just go to the vet and quote you, saying that I would like to try it? I live in London, does anyone know if the price would be similar? This would be a real real breakthrough if this works. And I'm sorry to have so many questions but do you mean to say that my bunny, who was sold to me with the illness could potentially breed again, she is still young-about 1 year old mini lop.
Thank you so much!
