Here’s the mug and it’s box…

lolz, Holly I have the small plush of this rabbit and I can remember reading the story to my kids when they were little. It’s a cute little bedtime ditty.
BB, I was recommended to this vet when I phoned another hospital nearer to us than my current vet and they told me about her. Oddly enough, this is the hospital that my son’s dog was taken to after the hubby ran him over with the car last May. It’s much smaller than my other vet, and I’d have to say at this point, 200% more affable. It was an expensive test, but I feel so much better having had it done. And surprise, surprise…no laughing gas, kennel fees or worry about Mimzy waking up properly! Hmmm. 0_<

I will be sure to post results as soon as they are known.

lolz…Rose, if you’re coming up here, bring your long johns…it’s been a cold one this year! ^_^

lolz…That’s cute BBM. I have often thought Canada may be the way to go for me, I haven’t been there since I was thirteen though.

I believe your province was spotlighted on our local news as Prez O went to visit. I love the old buildings in the capital, gosh those are gorgeous!

Yeah, you can tell the light is increasing here, Jen, Mimzy is beginning to wake from his winter sleep. He is tossing toys and chewing on stuff now, whereas he was just moping for the last four months. If ‘m lucky, this whole episode was just the culmination of the cold weather doldrums. (Of course, now Fiver is starting to poop on his bed because he is jealous of the attention Mimzy is getting…good grief!)

Which reminds me….*off to the BB.com store* I screwed up yesterday and laundered the last bag of “veggie smaks” which was tucked into the compartment on top of the carrier…what a dufus! >.< (ALL the bunnies like them now, so I am so glad the sweet treats are not in demand as much as they were!)

I can’t wait to take Fiver and Pip to the new vet…which will be when I can get an appointment to have their nails trimmed, since she did such a smashing job with Mim. Probably when I go back to get his meds.

lolz, BBM, from the sound of the Congress during his big speech tonight, I’d say you’re not the only one crushin’. ^_^ I wonder if he found the snowglobe and keychain for his daughters he was looking for?

BB, maybe because my Starbucks is inside my Barnes and Noble bookstore? Tell you what, if they still have them there when I next go in, I’ll get one and send it to you, okies? ^_^ I’m thinking of getting another one for me, so I have a set, lol.

I wonder if there’s a teapot that goes with them?

Okay, Jen, but it would be no trouble, seriously. If you can’t find one, let me know.

And so far, I should know by tomorrow if Mimzy has the Big P or not. The vet he saw is out fo the office till Friday.
I hope she comes up with something definite and treatable. He was still sneezing this morning and hawked up a big loogie. And I can’t grab them away from him in time…little bugger. Snarfs it straight down…like Stitch.

I just want him to get well!

Well it’s almost 1 PM here, I called at 11 this morning and they still didn’t have the results back yet. *grr* Apparently the (human) hospital lab does the testing. Does anyone else usually have this long to take getting a result back on a nasal swab?

I am VERY eager to get Mimzy and Pip back together for another attempt at bonding. But now I have to wonder, if he comes back positive, do I want to put them together again? Could he have already passed something to her that just hasn’t manifested yet? Could she still be clean? *sigh* The idea of having to have the other two swabbed or draw blood to see if they are making antibodies just sets my teeth on edge. But I’ll cross that bridge next Thursday-as by then I should know what’s going on with Mimzy and the doc and I can decide if the other two need treatment.

Luckily this vet is open on weekends, so I may still be able to get medicine if necessary.

lolz…Pam, what IS Sammykins wearing in your siggy? It looks like a kabuki kimono or something! ^_^

LOVE the nasal swab instructions! xD Yes, I can imagine it would be SO easy to do, just can’t figure out how my other vet thought it would be a major production. Mimzy was MOST cooperative and even sneezed out a big old globber for us right then and there.

ANYWAY (sorry for thsoe having dinner at the time of this writing) Mimzy has been diagnosed with branhamella catarrhalis. Even the vet had to go look it up. 10 days of enroflaxcin should do the job, plus I’m getting a probiotic, although she is unsure he’ll need it. And she even took into account that he doesn’t like cherry flavor, she’s getting him meds with apple essence.

I am impressed enough already…but to call me at 8PM on a Friday night to be sure we got him started tomorrow morning…now THAT’S dedication!

I gots me a new vet…yush! *dances*

Well now see, that just the thing, LPT…the last time Mimzy was at my old vet, there was a dog in the lobby who was hacking it’s head off…I had just finished paying up and was going to use the loo. Now my bad for not getting the buns out of there right away, but I figured there was plenty of distance between them and this dog. (Thinking back, most likely not.)

The receptionist whispers to the owners of the dog, “Oh, he shouldn’t be in here, he could give that to other animals,” and they ushered him away. So my hubby, bless him, goes and has a talk with the receptionist about this while I’m indisposed and she turns around and tells him, “Oh no, dogs don’t communicate disease like this to rabbits.”

Ummm…yeah. Ooookay.

Can’t prove it, but if that was the policy there, even having Shadow there for his surgery could’ve brought something home on him that transferred to the bunnies and Mimzy was just the unlucky one whom it landed on, so….

Can’t second guess it. Have to just do my best not to let it happen again. *nods* But I would give my left arm to know how he came down with this, for sure. And if he could be a carrier afterward, like with the Big P.

And yes, the vet told me to keep the three bunnies apart. She doesn’t want to take chances either. This gal is GOOD. ^_^
