Wobbly legs

[Debbi]

My Daisy has developed wobbly back legs, we have been to the vets and they couldn't find any obvious issues. I have a video of it but can't work out how to post it on here. She is eating fine and using her litter tray fine. It seems to be worse after a time spent lying down. It's like her legs have forgotten how to work


Any advice?

I have no advise on the actual issue, but to post a video on here it has to be uploaded to YouTube first

How old is she? Did the vet check for spondylosis or a blood test for e. cuniculi? Does your rabbit have access to any plants in your yard(like mushrooms) that could be toxic?

She is 9 months old and is a house rabbit, there are no plants that she can reach. The vet didn't do any blood tests think they are saving that for the next visit. She gave me anti-inflammatory medicine which Daisy is taking on some dried mango.

To me it almost looks like there is a nerve issue going on in that leg she keeps shaking. For a young rabbit like yours a spinal problem(not related to injury) like spondylosis or disk degeneration isn't as likely. Most likely cause when ingesting a toxin is ruled out, is the parasite e. cuniculi. It can affect the brain/cns causing symptoms like head tilt and hind limb weakness/paresis. Other likely cause could be a spinal injury, even just from the usual running around. So those are the two I would be looking at the closest. As a precaution for the possibility of e. cuniculi, I would want to ask my vet about going ahead and starting fenbendazole(panacur), which is the typical treatment for EC, along with meloxicam, which you might be already giving(though the vet may opt for steroid treatment over a NSAID). Infection might also be a slight possibility, and if so the vet may also want to start an antibiotic(usually baytril) as a precaution until a definitive cause can be found.

If you are in the UK, you have a rabbit specialist near your location, that might be worth going to if you aren't already. His name's Aidan Raftery.
