  • Please Note - Medical Advice

    Please keep in mind that posts on this forum are from members of the public sharing personal opinions. It is not a replacement for qualified medical advice from a veterinarian. Many illnesses share similar symptoms but require different treatments. A medical exam is necessary for an accurate diagnosis, without which appropriate treatment cannot be given.

    You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions. Even non prescription drugs can do harm if given inappropriately.

    We are very grateful to members who take time to answer other members questions, but please do be clear in your replies that you are sharing personal experience and not giving instructions on what must be done.

    Urgent Medical Advice: If you need, or think you might need, urgent medical advice you should contact a vet. If it is out of working hours phone your vet's normal number and there should be an answer phone message with instructions on what to do.

Snowy not well again.

Snowy has been hospitalised because of lack of eating, pooing and losing weight, the vet cannot find any blockages or anything wrong he is currently on fiberplex, zantac, maxolon,meloxidyl and panachor but still only eating small amounts of dandelion and hay he will not touch his nuggets.
The vet says that he is still not pooing enough, but I told him he has always been like that.
I don't know what to do next if the medications don't work because he had a blood test today and it was ok, the vet has offered him an xray and burrring his teeth but yesterday he said his teeth were ok and so did the vet a couple of days before that. He said they just don't know what the problem is.
Please could I have some vibes for him and some ideas.
