        Dear all –

        Hello. I’m new to this forum, but I usually go here to get information about general bunny health and care. My bunny, Ollie, just turned 8 last month, and since the beginning of March, he was diagnosed with e.cuniculi. He has cataracts in both eyes; his right eye recently was infected two months ago, but he’s navigating pretty well since he’s been staying at my parents’ house for years. He’s had two treatments, both consisting of PanacurT for 28 days. I just received a call yesterday about his third titer results (he goes for monthly checkups and exams), positive again, and as the vet indicated, “was higher than the previous test,” but she doesn’t want him to undergo treatment and told me to look out for any head tilting, sporadic falls, and constant circling. I asked her whether it was worrisome that the results were high and inquired why treatment wasn’t necessary this time; she indicated that it wasn’t at a dangerous level and she would like to see him in 30 days to determine if he can fight it on his own. Aside from a major tooth extraction, he’s been eating well, defecating, urinating, and playing as he usually does. I’m just an overbearing, worried bunny parent, and wanted to ask the community their thoughts. 

        Much appreciated!

        Also, this is the only vet that specializes in “exotic animals.” 

        thanks,

        K.Ngoc

          Welcome to BB Ngoc. I’m sorry to hear about Ollie’s health issues, but it’s great to know he has an owner who is looking after him so well.

          Unfortunately, I have no experience with e-cuniculi and its treatment; however, we do have some users who have shared their various experiences with it. Our search function is down, but if you Google “site: binkybunny.com e-cunniculi”, the results will be past topics about it. Do not respond to old topics, but you are free to keep revisiting this one to update us.

          I’m also responding to bump this so some more experienced EC members can chime in with their thoughts.

          Sending healing vibes~~!
