Recently Inca has been not so well off and on. Barring all of her other issues, she was having trouble peeing and her bladder seemed to fill up loads before she would pee, then when she did it would be all over the room!
Anyways, she went to the vets and I got injectible penicillan (Ceporex) antibiotics, they never cleared it up, so I got a longer course. They never worked. So back to the vets she went and had blood taken and I had to get a urine sample - no mean feat getting a sample from a rabbit!
The bloods came back all fine, which is great cos she had been on daily Metacam for about 2 years so the fact that it had no effect on her is fab!
The urine came back saying that she had a really bad infection. They were surprised that the antibiotics never cleared it up. So they wanted to do a culture of the urine to grow the bacteria and see what abx to use. I had to get another urine sample. So at the moment that sample is away 'growing bacteria' so we can get the best meds.
Fingers crossed we get the lil' lady sorted out, well at least this issue!
On a side note her wee twisted leg (through deformity, curved spine & arthritis) is getting worse She is sticking her leg away under her and out the other side, making her slip about the place
She is a wee wrecked bunny, but she is my wrecked bunny and she is a wee fighter!
