    Please keep in mind that posts on this forum are from members of the public sharing personal opinions. It is not a replacement for qualified medical advice from a veterinarian. Many illnesses share similar symptoms but require different treatments. A medical exam is necessary for an accurate diagnosis, without which appropriate treatment cannot be given.

    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. Even non prescription drugs can do harm if given inappropriately.

    We are very grateful to members who take time to answer other members questions, but please do be clear in your replies that you are sharing personal experience and not giving instructions on what must be done.

    Urgent Medical Advice: If you need, or think you might need, urgent medical advice you should contact a vet. If it is out of working hours phone your vet's normal number and there should be an answer phone message with instructions on what to do.

i was taught by my vet to inject my buns on monday-for someone squeamish i did surprisingly well! it now saves the stress of a vet trip for the next three weeks. although me,the vet and the nurse wondered which one of us bled all over the table and charlie:oops: it wasnt till i got home i realised it had been me! i found a dot where id pricked myself with the needle!!!!:oops::lol:
 
I'm squeamish and hate needles (often faint when I have to have a blood test) but I learned how to inject the cats and buns as it saves so much stress. I prefer to inject a cat than try and give them medication orally.
