I would not advise administering anything else, especially if he is already on longterm Metacam. Is there anyone who could go and collect some Metacam from the Vet for you ?

I could get it myself today but my vet isn't there until tomorrow and really I would be better off taking the rabbit to see a plumber than the vet that is on today, he is that bad :?
 
would your vets give you the extra day of meds until you can see your normal vet tomorrow? say that you only want to see that vet or something :?
 
I can try popping in later but they don't open till 4.30 so I can't talk to anyone from that surgery. I phoned the main branch to get the appointment for tomorrow
 
Might be worth asking the receptionist over the phone if you can get a repeat prescription without an exam? Your nice vet might've marked that it's OK on your account, when I had to get a new lot of Metacam for my dog I just had to phone up to request it so they could dispense it and get a vet to sign for it before I went to pick it up, but that was all.
 
Prob is this is is the third bottle he has had without a check up so I think they will need to see him first, esp as he has deteriorated. But hopefully they will let me have it a day early if I have an appointment booked already
 
i have a newish bottle hun..just as long as i can get it back after tomorrow when mums bun willhave ben speyed so she can have some as needed....
rob gave me a big bottle for willow with her toe....its so handy to have some left
 
will tide you over till you get to see rob....just bring me up a bottle or something to pop some in....and ill see if i have a syringe somewhere for you..

mind you maybe a check up first may be essential after 3 bottles..its liver and kidney failure it causes right?
phone if you need some desperately...you know where i live.
 
Fudge has been PTS today the vet decided he had deteriorated so much that it was time for him to go :cry:
