Hiya all,
I'm hoping someone can give me some advice - I'm really not sure what the best course of action is
I have two bonded rabbits, Xander and Wilma - they're my little furry babies! They've both been vaccinated agains VHD and Myxi.
About two weeks ago, the vet diagnosed them with Nodular Myxi - it's a bit hard to miss, they're covered in lumps! Poor Xandy has it worse though, he's got a huge one on his nose, and all around his mouth....makes me cry just looking at them Vet gave me metacam, which has now run out, but nothing else, said they didn't seem to have secondary infections which required antibotics, so I was happy with that.
They've been doing okay up until now. Xandy can't stop sneezing, and you can hear his breathing, which seems a bit, laboured isn't the word, but like a human would with a cold.
They're both still eating and everything, and Wilma won't leave her husbun's side.
So what should I do - it's Sunday afternoon, so it's emergency call outs only at the vets. I love them to bits, and will do anything for them, of course, but does he need to be seen right now? Is there something I can do for him until maybe tomorrow?
Obviously if they need to go, I will take them right now!
I'm sorry if I come across a bit of an emotional wreck, my parents are currently stuck in Kenya as my dad has been admitted to hospital, so I'm just finding life a little hard at the moment....but any quick responces would be so greatly appriciated.
Thank you x
