    It looks like it was irritated, but it does look better. My guess is something go in there or she was poked. Maybe by some hay.

    Just took this photo today, i feel like it’s a healing scratching mark, since it’s not watery anymore and she wasn’t with a closed/half shuted eye. (Had to put the new image on Google Drive because i can’t pin anymore). The pictures i took today: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1B9DJMUDZgmhELMuDY1n75c1AMjUUcA6h?usp=drive_link

    The test for EC is a titer. A fecal test is only going to look for worms, etc.

    vet got a look at her front and back teeth and everything looked good and was really at a loss as to what could be going on. She talked with another vet, called me back at the end of her shift, and said she wants me to stop by on Monday and give a fecal…

    Em – EC tests are notorious for having false results, so what you experienced isn’t unusual. I agree with the others. Something is definitely missing here. If she is getting appropriate food, then something else is going on. I would suggest a more thorough look at her teeth to rule that out. This needs to…

    Definitely would proceed with further scans/imaging (x-rays or skull CT) to rule out a dental issue. my previous rabbit had sudden unexplained weight loss and excessive thirst. His blood results never yielding anything alarming. He was a frenchie, and went from almost 7kg to 4kg. It was undiagnosed E. cuniculi impacting his kidneys (I have…
  • Hello! It sounds like you and Budja have been though a lot! I’m so glad to hear she is doing well despite all the health problems. I know caring for a sick bun can be hard on both the bun and their bunparent, so I hope you have been doing well, too! 🙂

    Her poop (size, amount, and shape) looks good to me. I did manage to get her to gain a pound but whether or not she will be able to keep that weight I’ll have to wait and see.

    If everything else was good, I’d still suspect the teeth. Some buns have very sensitive mouths and will become picky if they have even very small spurs. The bun might still eat but not as much as she ideealy should, and she might not chew the food as properly as she should – that can…

    Thank you! Did that last night and today she woke up perfectly, i think she popped it on hay probably, now i’m storing it in a box with a little hole so i can avoid this kind of accident! Maybe i was just overwhelming hahahaha. Thank you again!

    Both my buns get pellets in moderation
  • Hi Adam! I remember your bunny and I’m very sorry for your loss. It’s important to focus on the 9 years she had with you. She was loved and well taken care of. Don’t let a couple of days, where you were still trying your best given the circumstances, cloud all the wonderful years you…
  • Reply To: Unexplained weight loss - LBJ10 12/18/2024 02:53 AM
    Does she get any pellets? Some bunnies just need them, some don’t necessarily.
  • Reply To: Unexplained weight loss - crazylittlebunny 12/17/2024 10:57 PM
    The majority of my rabbits diet is hay, I Rotate different vegetables/leafy greens so that she gets to variety in her diet, And any sugary fruits and vegetables are given In moderation/sparingly. I haven’t noticed any behavioral changes. She is still eating, drinking pooping and behaving perfectly normal And she isn’t eating slower than she…
  • I so happy to hear Budja is still doing well. It’s no surprise that you would start to see problems with the opposing teeth since some were removed. Hopefully they can keep that in check.
  • Thank you!  I just wanted to update this thread. Budja’s just recently had another CT done (this time with contrast) I was told they weren’t too sure what was going on last time due to the lack of contrast, so they decided this time to go ahead with it. Everything on the CT looked good…
  • Nine months later and I cry in my cubicle - Adam 12/17/2024 07:59 PM
    Her last days, as I looked for something that might help: https://binkybunny.com/forums/topic/rabbit-has-fluid-around-lungs-looking-for-treatment-options/ Doesn’t help that I have a couple pictures of her to look at every day, but I won’t forget her, she deserves to be remembered.  My brain though, once it goes down these tracks it just won’t stop until it has destroyed my…

    If nothing else seems off, then it could just be that she got something in that eye. You could try rinsing it with saline (like for humans) to see if that helps. If it persists or gets worse, then you’ll know it’s something else.

    Hi! Just noticed today that my  2 y.o. lop bunny’s right eye is watery. At first i thought it was her face molting and the aspect of fur was different, but then, later, i saw it a bit wet. It’s not crusty or irritated, haven’t seen her scratching it, i don’t know if her eyelid…
