My wife and I have an old english, snowy who we think is 8 ( got her as a rescue rabbit so not sure of her age ) We are fairly certain she has Ecuniculi. She is incontinent, lost the use of her hind legs and goes round in circles. Very frustratingly I only found the forum tonight, she lost the use of one of her rear legs about four months ago, improved and then got worse again. She was x rayed and this showed an old break at the top or her leg and bad arthritis so we put it down to that. She managed to get round on three legs and was content. However about 12 days ago she lost the use
of the other one.
I took her to the vets and had a very uncomfortable converation about quality of life, vet mention there was an outside chance the incontinence could be caused by a parasite/worms and prescribed lapizole and we are on day 8, the last couple of days she has gone off her food. We have got her on Bio-lapas a probiotic drink. Should we be be giving her something like fibreplex. I will be phoning the vets tomorrow to see what they recommend but would like your input as well.
Thanks
Adrian
