I posted a thread about this around a month ago. I noticed sores on my rabbit Basil's feet around a month ago so I brought him to the vet. She gave me ointment and scrubs and she told me to scrub his feet and apply the ointment twice a day. She said it would clear up in 5 days. She gave me the ointment and scrubs on like July 12th.
I think the urine sores happened because I had him on a wire hutch and a box with bedding but he would pee/poop in the box and lie in it. I now blocked off the box and put two blue resting pads on the wire in his hutch. He also has a playpen:
I took him to the county fair on July 18th and the judge didn't even notice the sores on his feet. I am going to be taking Basil to State Fair in 2 weeks and I also plan to go to an ARBA show on August 10th.
I recently stopped using the scrubs and ointment because his feet haven't gotten any better. This is what his feet look like with the fur pulled back:
This is without the fur pulled back:
Do you think the environment Basil lives in needs to change, should I continue with the treatment from the vet, should I bring him to the vet again, or is there any advice you have ?? I am getting worried because State Fair is soon!! Any advice would be soo great
