Hello, Lola my female bunny has tonight suddenly changed. I went out with there veg tonight, and ussually she'll run over and go mad for it, tonight she didnt move, so i picked her up and she just sat in my arms for a bit, then looked at her food so i put her down by it but she just ran downstairs. As she moved she seemed quite wobbly and each of her legs were taking seperate steps instead of the ussual 'hopping'. I immediately phoned the vets and took her up there straight away, didnt want to leave it, rather get her checked out.
So we've been to the vets where they've literally checked everything, ears, eyes, teeth, all fine. Felt her tummy, fine, weighed her, ussual weight. Temperature was normal, breathing was a little fast but thats just because she was at the vets! So we put her on the floor to see her hop about, where she just moved slowly and was 'swaying' a bit.
The only thing the vet could come up with was possibly worms as if she has this it could affect the nervous system? So the vet gave her a painkiller injection and has given me some anti biotics - 'Septrin'. She just said to see how she goes, see if she hopefully will improve or if not to take her back saturday.
Im really worried now, my mind is racing with all possible explanations and i just keep thinking the worst, ive been in tears. It was only Monday we had to have our dog put to sleep and now this? Im just so worried, does anyone have any idea at all?
Thanks
