Hi, I'm new
I have two rabbits, Lola and Darwin, they are roughly 3 years old and brother and sister.
Last Thursday when I went to give Darwin some cuddles I noticed he had a wet nose and a small ammount of white discharge around his nose. I had to go to work, and when I came back there was no discharge. Although absolutly fine in himself, eating everything, pooping, playing, destroying his cardborad boxes I booked him in at the vets. On Friday mornig I took him to the vets, they said that they didn't think it was the snuffles but a small resportiary infection. They prescribed him bisolvon (sp?) in a powder form, half a teaspoon in water per day. He seemed absolutly fine after a day of that.
Since then he and Lola have been fine, I have noticed they get more sleep dust in thier eyes, but they are going through a MAJOR molt, I'm quite confident the extra eye discharge is being caused by them getting hair in thier eyes (there is hair in the sleepy dust).
Yesterday Lola and Darwin went for thier mxy jabs and had a check up. Vet said they are absolutly fine. She listen to thier chest and weighed them etc. She also advised me to stop the medicine for Darwin. So I did.
Today I have seen Darwin and he has a wet nose and small ammount of discharge around his nose again!! What shall I do, put him back on the powder stuff, or just see how he goes today?
Could it be the mxy jab that has made him poorley again? Or is it the lack of medication? Or could it be the moulting irritating him? Although they live outsied they come in every evening and I have been getting itchy eyes!!
Thank you xx
