    You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions.

Alice possible bladder sludge

I cant get Alice in to see a vet till Thursday!! :(
I really don't want to take her to a different vets as have just changed and really happy with them, plus I was really unhappy with the way my old vets treated Bear so have lost all confidence in them.
I really don't know if I can wait that long though, I feel guilty and am worried about her being in pain, she nipped my OH yesterday which is really out of character :cry: Also sat in the corner of her room today, just not herself.
Really dont know what to do! SOOOOO dont want to take her to the other vets, I had to take Bear back 3 times with his breathing problem before they would treat him made me feel like a hypercondriac!
Is there anything I can do from home to make her more comfortable, or would you advise I get her to the vet asap even if it is the one I dislike.
Please help me and my poor little Alice

Personally I would get her to a Vet ASAP. If she has bladder issues things could be much worse by Thursday

Good luck

I agree - your rabbit needs to see a vet asap.

(I don't think any rabbit-savvy vet would have said you have to wait until Thursday - I am confident mine would have seen me today). Where abouts in Hampshire are you?
 
Get her to a vet and argue your case!! dont take no for an answer!!

Hope she gets better soon xx
 
Thank you all for the advice I have managed to get her in with the vets I like this afternoon so happy with that :D

Also got to take Bear as well now ergh! He's been licking between his legs since being neutered and irritated the skin, monkey!
Also noticed a little hard patch of skin on his chin I want to get looked at.

Will let you know how we get on!
