Feeling very down in the dumps, Billy my french lop has in the last few weeks developed (after being maintained for a year or more) sore hocks, we have always been able to stop them getting worse by bandaging his feet but he has started to wee all over his bum and back legs. We have now been to the vet approx. five times each time been given baytril and this last time after me asking,metacam . I asked for depocillin as thats what worked last time but was told it wasn't bad enough for depocillin. His urine was tested and had no abnormalities. The weeing on himself is still unexplained, I suggested to the vet it was arthritic pain (as he is reluctant to jump into litter trays, doesn't periscope, but the vet said she didn't think so? (not sure why) Any way the weeing on the bandages means they get wet and this stops them being as effective, we have tried to keep on top of changing them and cleaning up wee but a french lop wee is a lot of wee! He sadly has now also got urine burn on the inside of his legs and bottom (which I have sudocremed) So after last trip to the vet with higher baytril dose his hock finally no longer look infected but he has oddly in a week now developed an open pussy abscess on his leg near the top of his foot - I put manuka honey on it, it looks awful, worse than his hocks, i'm worried it will be PTS soon.. - is this related to his hocks? Going to the vet again tomorrow, really feel like i', letting Billy down, i've only just got him on metacam after begging for it and the vet didn't think he needed it all the time only for the hock pain (i think he needs it for arthritic pain) He still eating like a horse, but I feel his quality of life is going down. Hopefully this open abscess will convince the vet he needs depocillin injections again...I just feel so sad, hes 5 and the best rabbit ever
