My foster rabbit Lola has head tilt as shown in the photos below
We went to the vets and tests showed that she does have EC so all 4 of my rabbits are on a 28 course of panacur (the vet did says that the non affected rabbits only needed 9 days, but I've decided to do 28 to be on the safe side much to the rabbits' disgust!).
The angle Lola holds her head at hasn't improved but it also hasn't got any worse. Looking at a lot of the info on here her head tilt does seem to be a fairly mild case as she doesn't fall or roll over and she can pull her head straight for cleaning her ears.
My question is, should I be discussing any other treatments with the vets. I did discuss metacam but the vet said that Lola doesn't appear to be in any pain, which I agree with as she's still very active and eating really well. Is there anything else you guys can suggest which could help her?
Thanks
