My rabbit is a new zealand white, about 2 years old. About 48 hours ago she just collapsed and won't stand up. I took her to the vet immediately and they're not exactly sure what is wrong with her. She has some cysts in her ear but we're still not sure that is the cause. The only thing the blood work and xrays came up with is a urinary tract infection.
So, I've been giving her meds (sulfamethoxazole and baytril). She has not improved at all. Her hind section is completely immobile now and her bowel movements are no longer pellets. She refuses to drink any water. I try to shoot it into her mouth with a syringe but she is very defiant and most of it spills out. I guess there's nothing more to be done, she does eat hay still. I'm just hoping maybe someone knows something more that I can do for her.
