Hi,
One of the rabbits I took in last year and found a home with my friend has started losing weight and has saliva around her mouth. Her sister is fine. She was taken to the vets today and her teeth were found to be fine, as this was my initial thought. The vet wasn't sure what was wrong but prescribed Baytril to 'see how she goes'. I don't think much of the vets she used but it was the only one she could get to in her lunch hour. I've recommended she take her to another vet a little further away when she is able to on Friday.
In the mean time can anyone suggest what might be the problem? She has no symptoms other than weight loss and dribbling, although the vet thought there may be some swelling in the back of the mouth but she wasn't certain.
I've tried researching into this but I've not found anything other than molar spurs. Can anyone please point me in the right direction?
Many thanks,
Clare
