I’m so glad you got Louie a friend, I am hoping this one gets a friend, I can tell he wants one, loves grooming the stuffed orca and follows my cat when she walks by the ex-pen.

One of the fosters mentioned checking the hay? They said they had an experience where there was a poisonous/toxic plant mixed in that may cause seizures?

@Louiethe bunny – would love to see baby Louie photo!

Thanks @hophopbunny. I might try it, but I am afraid of the scale right now! I might see if i can plop him on it while he is in a box.

He eats at least 3 piles his size of hay on top of that, if not more. I don’t have the problem of hay all over because he is a little vacuum, if I drop some he just runs over and sucks it up. And just to be clear my greens aren’t just lettuce they include grasses, herbs and other forage (wild plants tend to be much more fibrous, but agree with…[Read more]

The dentist warned us about the difficulty of dealing with abscesses but seemed confident his treatment plan would work. According to research I’ve done on him, he seems very knowledgeable. Alas, he didn’t say anything to us about Hunny’s teeth except her incisors are misaligned (thus he filed them) and the molar with the abscess can’t be removed…[Read more]

Ive read a few things online, some places say baby aspirin is ok some say it’s not. I’m worried if she’s in pain she won’t poop.

Good idea! It’s probably best to eliminate it as a possibility at least.

I think it depends on the dream and how deeply they are sleeping too. Sometimes you just see nose and cheek twitches. Sometimes you get the foot and body twitches too.

I’m glad they finally found what the problem (likely) is! Although it isn’t the news you were wanting, a tooth abscess isn’t the end of the world. I agree with the others. Pen G shots are generally considered more effective. It is very difficult for oral antibiotics to make their way into the abscess. There is no harm in trying though and the…[Read more]

@DanaNM Can I do anything for her if she’s in pain? She looks uncomfortable

Sending good vibes that the medicine helps!

If she is eating willingly, that’s good. Just keep getting food into her and the poops will come.

That was also a thought… apparently there is a bit of an outbreak going on in SB. Going to try to look at it with a blacklight… supposedly if it fluoresces that way it’s ringworm.

She pooped two poops. Then I gave her some more simethicone and syringe fed her. I’m hoping it works 🤞🏻

It’s not ringworm, is it?

Understood. Here’s hoping the medicine helps Hunny and she does not need surgery. As I said in my original post, the dentist is concerned about that option because of the abscess’s location (Hunny’s fourth molar, on the left side). He says there’s no way to extract the infected tooth without taking the perfectly healthy one in front of it, as…[Read more]

I completely understand the frustration. Here’s what my vet said regarding dental abscess long term treatments (who was very experienced with rabbit dentals). The first step was to extract the bad tooth and clean out the abscess. The vet said eventually he would need to have the molar opposite the one extracted filed (and possibly others), because…[Read more]
