Young Bun
Hope someone can help with this?
Our 8 year old female bunny suddenly starting to drag her hind legs on Thursday, still hopping but dragging a little, took her to the vet on Friday and he said he could feel a lump towards her back end - which he thinks could be a tumour which may be the cause of the leg weakness, he gave us Metacam and the drug to get her guts moving incase the lump was a blockage in her waste pipe.
On Saturday she went down hill with reference to her hind legs, now she can't hop at all, she's still eating well and we already have her on a dose of Panacur incase of EC, infact she was last treated with Panacur about 4 months ago. She doesn't seem to be pooping properly, although passing wet poos.
We are due to go back to the vets on Tuesday morning when I guess he will operate on the lump.
Anyone had anything like this before? We have had experience with hind leg weakness before with a bunny but that was gradual and caused by EC.
Does anyone think removing the tumour will help her legs, or are the 2 unrelated?
