Thank you all for your support and kind words. I’m finding it hard living our daily life without him. I glanced in his direction about a thousand times a day.

Hmm… if it isn’t an abscess and it isn’t cancerous, then that makes me think syphilis. I urge you to talk to another vet. If the “sore” is something as simply as syphilis, it can be treated with antibiotics.

Thank you for the update, lovely news!

Happy to hear he’s back home with you! Thank you for the update!

It can take a couple of days for him to get back to eating properly again, the antibiotics might also temporarily subdue his appetite.

Hey guys today we received the result from the sample.. they just said  it isn’t anything cancerous or anything really.. they don’t know what it is, but to operate would just make her suffer as it’s near her eye area

I haven’t included a picture but it has gotten worse since the last picture i posted.

I’m in the UK and where my sister is there…[Read more]

My bun had his dental procedure today and he is home in one piece (though very uncomfortable and grumpy!)

Critical Care, antibiotics, and painkillers are all on schedule now. He is still sleepy from the painkiller shot and who could blame him!

His teeth already sound better though another tooth is up for further investigation. Awaiting feedback…[Read more]

Are you sure it isn’t an atypical syphilis infection? Sorry, that just randomly came to mind as a possibility.

7 isn’t really that old for surgery in general… but it all depends on what the surgery is and the chances of recovery. If she has multiple abscesses throughout her head then it would be very difficult to cure. Usually you can only know the full extent with a CT scan, which is very expensive and usually only available at specialist hospitals. I…[Read more]

Thank you guys i really appreciate it

In terms of the wound it really is so strange, the vets took a sample and sent it out a few days ago but we haven’t received an answer as to what it is -And they don’t seem to know aswell. Vets just said that it’s spreading to her actual eye almost… And because she is 7 years old it’s dangerous doing a…[Read more]

I’m so sorry, what a sad turn of events. Would it be possible to get a second opinion or see a specialist?

I think you should go to see her on Saturday. It will be hard, but I think you would regret not going.

Oh dear, it seems to me like ending her suffering is a bit premature? I know you’ve posted about it before but what type of a wound is it? Is there an abscess?

There are “flesh-eating” bacteria, but they typically do their work of destruction really, really quickly. This seems more like a slow spread, like some sort of pyoderma (what’s known as…[Read more]

That’s great! Thanks for the update 🙂

Thank you all for your help 😊 my bunny is doing great and no more problems. I will slowly start giving him treats but I’ll break them up.

This does sound like it very well could be a dental problem. The fact that she saw some sharp looking teeth AND he isn’t wanting his hay suggests that the points very well could be bothering him. Hay requires the most side to side chewing and is usually the first thing to go when a bun has molar spurs. It’s not uncommon for buns to need a trim…[Read more]
