hot knox buns
Young Bun
I am constantly treating my girl for snuffles, among other issues. She is just a very unhealthy girl...
We recently moved across the US, and the stress put her in another bout of illness.
Something I never noticed in California, is that she is so congested that she wakes up in the middle of the night and seems to be crying out. I have heard bunnies scream while under anesthesia or while getting tattoos, and this is different. My opinion is that she falls asleep, and then becomes so congested that it wakes her up and frightens her.
Of course, she is on baytril again, but it is always a slow go to nurse her back to health. (and even when "healthy" she never stops sneezing and coughing alltogether)
I am just curious if anyone else has had this experience with their bunnies during a respiratory illness? I always seem to know more about bunnies than the vets I see for them, and ALWAYS more than the vets I work with... But none of them seem to think much of this kind of vocalization. I can tell she is in terrible distress, and I wonder how common this response is?
So please share your experiences and wish us a speedy recovery! I really could use a full nights sleep again...
