Lily and her "Snuffles"

....which may not be snuffles at all!!
She had an appointment at the vets yesterday.Her 3rd appointment in the 4 weeks Ive had her.
It was a different vet this time..Beebee usually sees her.
Anyway,She was really shocked at Lilys teeth.She looked up at me and said "Have these not been noticed?"
The top AND bottom teeth were so LONG!! Her poor little mouth...Im so surprised there are no absesses or anything.
Anyway, the teeth have been dealt with..for now.Her mouth and face look so different.
But Im so amazed cos theres no more snot.Her nose is dry.She didnt have heavy breathing...but I did notice she would put her face right up in the air when eating.
Shes not doing this.Her bowl is totally empty...shes skipping about so happily!!
Although her teeth arent aligned so will talk again to the vet when shes finished the course of baytril, but the vet seems to think Lily is a dental bunny,not a snuffles one.She thinks the teeth were having the snotty affect.
I tell you...Im praying this is the case!! :p:p
This was because of her teeth!!
 
This is the best news I've heard in months. I wish I could run over with a bottle of plonk for you!!
Yes miracles do happen.
Also we may try our best over a computer screen but there is never any substitute for a "hands on assessment, & clinical expertise" of a good vet.
I'm so very glad you've found one at last. With every good wish for the future.
Judy & Thumper.:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:wave:
 
What a lucky little bun Lily is to have found you! ...and what a poor bank balance you must have after all her vet trips!:shock::shock:

You free for a chat?! I have the house ALL to myself! :D:D:D!! No ruddy playstation shooting in the background!!
 
Hiya Judy.Owe you a pm but babysitting Ruby the parrot so cant be long on here.Hoping you and yor boy are both well.
Lily is going strength to strength....eating well and going back to the vets in a week or so after course of baytril.I want her to be in tip top condition for her jabs which the vet has delayed just to make sure.
The plan is to have Beebees pockets picked so I can bond him with her.
I have let Mrs Bun put on too much weight so shes dieting!!Other than that all are well.will be in touch...just a quickie for now.
with love.y.xxx
