Hello,
When I finally got up this morning at 11am, we found lots of runny poos and Sherlock looking incredibly peaky. By noon we had him in an emergency vets where the vet felt his tummy and said it felt mushy. He has given him, from the receipt:
0.32ml Baytril 2.5% (SLT)
0.06x METACAM CAT INJ 10ML (SLT) (I assume the CAT bit is a printing mistake or something!)
and finally, 3 sachets for us to administer of Protexin Bio Lapis (SLT)
He has asked us to take Sherlock back there tomorrow at 10am.
I'm so, so worried about him. He had been fed nothing more than his usual amount of Science Selective and usual unlimited hay and water. He had a little bit of savoy cabbage (which we'll never give him again after this, just in case) and that's about it. The only two "unusual" things we found are he really went to town on a cardboard blue-roll insert (essentially the same as a toilet roll tube but a bit thicker) and did chew an awful lot of that and we have just found, from his Pets at Home tunnels, that he may have chewed off the fabric ties that connect them together.
Does everything sound above board with the course of treatment provided by the vet today? The vet we used was the one that would normally be at our usual vets on a weekend (or certainly this weekend) but we've never met him before, but he did seem a knowledgeable rabbit vet.
Half desperation post, half just checking if everything so far sounds like it's the best for him. He was at the vets within 40 minutes of us getting up.
Edit: Amy got up at 3am this morning for a drink and there was no sign of any runny poos or anything at that time. So it's happened somewhere between 3:01am and 11:05am!
