Just updating on Alfie. I posted a few days ago regarding Alfie’s ordeal with seeing different vets for his reoccuring stasis episodes and dental issues. I have taken Alfie to now a 3rd vet today because the past 2 days, we went to our initial vet to get an examination done, and the next day was a scheduled dental trim under anesthesia. Well…..on the day that Alfie was to get his molars trimmed, they put him under sedation and then the vet calls me AFTER and informs me that they don’t have the right sized tool to file his teeth (believe me, I am as enraged as you are). How can they put an animal under the risk of anesthesia just to admit later that they should not have even done the procedure?! I surely dropped that vet quickly and said I would never return. So today, I had an appointment with a new vet that was recommended by someone I knew and told me this vet has worked with rabbits and many farm animals. She was the first one to immediately take xrays, perform a fecal test, blood work, urine testing, and oral examination. To my surprise, when the vet showed me the xrays, Alfie’s teeth were not nearly as bad as what the other vet claimed, saying that the jaw is perfectly aligned, and that something else is putting him off of eating enough hay. After the vet performed a fecal floating and smear test, we discovered that Alfie has coccidia which has gone undetected. As glad as I am that we have FINALLY got some answers behind all of Alfie’s symptoms….I feel so utterly horrible that he has gone through all of this and I can’t help but feel like I’m a bad mom. We have been given the appropriate medication for the coccidia as well as Metacam as Alfie’s main symptoms from the coccidia is abdominal discomfort/pain. I have seen improvement already within 12 hours. Hopefully this 5 month-long journey of recurring stasis will be put to an end. Has anyone had a bun here who experienced coccidia?
