Hi all, there is a female bunny about 2 years old who I am looking at adopting.
She has been in rescue for about 6 months and came in extremely overweight and with a bad case of mites.
She then gave in to ear mites which took a fair amount of time to heal up and they dont know if it got to her brain as she also had a bout of head tilt.
To my knowledge she has been on a course of Ivermectin, Baytril and Panacur (they confirmed for 6 weeks).
She has now been given the all clear for her ear mites but she may have ongoing problems.
She has been known to have fits in the past, in which she pushes her head against the floor and screams. Her last fit was about 4 weeks ago and she has been happy since.
I asked them if their vet thought it may be E.C or Epilepsy and they do not know. Does anyone have any ideas that I can put forward should I adopt her.
Also any other signs I should look out for?
She hasn't been spayed and I'm guessing with a history of fitting it wouldn't be advised?
I have some pics of her, they dont know the breed, she was double the size when she came in (overweight). I think she may be English X with something but any idea's would be nice?
Oh and forgot to mention that incase you dont already know I have a little extra time on my hands and have looked after a spec needs bun before so am hoping to give a bunny who needs a bit more care a loving home
Will add piccies in a bit
