Well-Known Member
Hello all! Ive posted before about Cally's odd behavior and discussed the vet's prescription of Baytril and his "seizures". Since his Baytril ended, the seizures have increased (if that's what they are). While on the medication, he still had the seizures, they were just very rare. He had another today that lasted pretty much half a minute. His body completely contorted and violently shaking. Front legs stiff while back legs vibrating and kicking. When it finished, he was gasping for air or at least it sounded like it. I am very concerned as I know, in humans at least, that seizures can cause a lack of oxygen to the brain and long term effects can be detrimental to one's health. We just moved to Tennessee and would like to discuss this with a Rabbit Savvy individual. Dont know if any of you have a suggestion about his behavior, what to do, or know of anyone in Tennessee who is absolutely knowledgeable with rabbits. There are some vets around here that take care of farm animals but I am not sure if rabbits would be considered in that category. I dont want to go to the vet and have them tell me they can see Callaway but then not know anything about the animal which is pretty much what happened when we lived in Maryland.
He will be 2 years old in August.
