New Kit
Hi sorry I'm new to this forum and wondered if anyone can help me? My little fluffy bum Peter rabbit who is a mini Rex just over a year old is being treated for mxyi. He's been seeing the vet every other day for his antibiotics (betamox la) and I give him metacam everyday with his food. It was last Saturday the 29th that I noticed his head had become swollen and also his back end so I took him to the vets asap and confirmed to me it was myxi :-( he has had his jab which I was told should last a year but I know nothing is ever 100% so he has reported because I don't want any other bunnies getting it. He looks like he has the chronic one so I'm really worried that he isn't going to make it :-(. I moved him indoors made sure he always has a hot water bottle and put eucalyptus places to help with his breathing he's eating fine and drinking, not as much as I would like tho, he has pre biotic in his water too. His eyes don't seem to be pushing that much but his nose is sticky. It seems to be on the day he's due his anti biotics that's he's bad. I just don't know what to do it breaks my heart to see him like this, and it's seems like everyone is giving up (not the vets). I am back living with my parents now and I was surprised at how they let me bring him in the house but now there getting fed up and telling me I should just put him out of his misery but I just can't do it, I want to fight for him!! But I don't want friction at home :-S. So could anyone please tell me some good news because I really don't know what to do, as Iv heard it can sometimes rake bunnies months to get over this and I don't think my parents are willing to wait but I definatly am! It's not even been a week yet and I just wanna know if anyone has dealt with myxi like this before and can tell me if he sounds like he could make it?
