Twinkle has a vets appointment at 9.50am as I noticed her face on one side is all wet. Dental problems?
I am hoping this is easily sorted

vibes going out to twinkle hope its not too serious and she recovers well, my casper is 8 and recently went in for bad dental (he was wet near his eyes and mouth) and had GA and he came home the same day and was hopping around and eating now he eats everything, i know how it feels i was worrying all day, but you will be suprised of how strong these pets are lets us know how she gets on :wave:
Well one for getting her seen so speedily Good luck for Monday. I've had some 'dodgy' bunnies have dentals with no problems, and hopefully Twinkle will have no problems with hers and will come back to you much more comfortable
thanks for your help last night
I have more Metacam for her to get her through till Monday. I did the right thing giving her some last night the vet said.
Poor Twinkle Atleast you have a fab vet and you know it will all be sorted very soon. Hope Twinkle has a good munchie weekend to get her strength up for Monday. Vibes x
Hope Twinkle has a reasonably comortable weekend. Is the mucky bum problem linked? Sending vibes. xx

It's very often a clinical sign of dental problems as Fluffiebunnie says.
If the mouth is sore then bun will not always consume their caecotrophs and hence they get discarded and often caked onto the rear end.
Do you think it would be beneficial for Twinkle to be on Metacam daily for dental problems? If she were your rabbit would you want her on something? I worry that she is in pain every day and it is only when it gets really bad that I notice due to other problems (stasis, wet face).
It might be that if spurs are causing her a problem then she may not have those issues after this (until next time), however if its roots then that's a different board game and I wonder if maybe having an x-ray done on her face might be beneficial to tell you if its her roots or not.
I have one girl who has maintenance Metacam daily due to dental problems, so it may be an option.
