Was wondering if anyone could tell me what my rabbit has and what to give her??

One of my rabbit, Jodie, seems to have decaying teeth. :( The top front teeth are decaying at the top near the gum and look as if they are going to fall out :( She has a crusty nose too and has heavy breathing, I thought it was a URI before I saw the teeth :(

She is now just lying in her cage, she's not walking properly.

What do I do???? :(
 
Jodie needs to be taken to the vet ASAP. This isn't something you can treat at home. Best wishes to you and Jodie.

I am taking her tomorrow as an emergency as it is bank hol monday.

I don't think rabbits' teeth decay because they're continually growing and being worn down by eating hay and chewing on stuff. I guess they could decay if they stop growing, but then the lack of growth would be a problem, too.

I think it's more likely that she broke off her teeth by hitting them when jumping down from something or chewing on the wrong thing.

Here's a video discussing dental issues with rabbits:

Is she eating? I suspect that she's in a world of hurt! Makes my teeth ache just thinking about it. Poor baby. Please get her to a vet ASAP!

Do you have any Metacam for pain relief?
 
Oh no, poor bunny! Not sure what this coud be, just want to wish you luck for tomorrow. I know there was something on the forum once before about decaying teeth...:ponder:
 
I gave her metacam because her gums were swollen, however it is an anti inflam, not a pain killer.

Sadly, Jodie died last night :(I suppose i will never know what it was.
 
Aww...i'm so very sorry :(


 
I have edited the title of your thread to show that she has passed away. I'm sorry for your loss.

Thank you :)

Thanks to everyone, she will be sorely missed by both me and her friend, Bailey. :(
