My second bunny has Myxi i think

npg1

Young Bun
As you probably remember my first bunny Fluffy was put to sleep on monday as he had myxi. Well I think my second bunny Ginger has it too I think. His eyes tonight are slightly puffy, like how I remember Fluffy's eyes were at the start and me just thinking he looked sleepy. I think his bits are swollen too but then im not convinced as im not really sure what they look like anyway.

:(
 
I agree with Sky-O he needs to see a vet tonight if you think this is Myxi again.

I'm so sorry :cry: Good luck and my thoughts are with you x
 
He only had the jab monday. Im still not 100% sure it is it so will see how he is in morning and then take him to vets tomorrow. Gosh this is hell.
 
I'd suggest maybe erring on the side of caution and at the very least getting him some pain meds because if it is he is likely to be hurting where he is swollen.
 
Just wanted to say thank you to everyone who gave me advice on my bunnies, Fluffy and Ginger.

I am sad to say I have lost both bunnies to Myxi.

RIP Fluffy and Ginger you will be sadly missed.
