She'd been 'off' since Thursday morning, not eating her pellets or hay and was in some obvious discomfort. She got worse and was stomach pressing, teeth grinding etc last night so I called the OOH vets and we had a discussion, but seen as she was eating dandelion leaves and travelling would stress her out even more we left her and saw the specialist this morning.
Turns out she's got a lung infection The problem she had originally (upper respiratory, was snuffling and sneezing), has progressed downwards into her lungs and that's why she was feeling so uncomfortable, bless her She was also a bit cold and was shivering so now we're home with a cocktail of meds, she's on a snugglesafe and is feeling very sorry for herself! I wouldn't normally be so worried but she's nearly 7 years old and isn't as strong as my others, who are only two years old. Poor lass, she looks so uncomfortable
On a happier note, the rabbit specialist at my surgery is amazing! She's lecturing at London Zoo early next week and the surgery is closed on Saturday afternoon and Sunday, but she said that if Daisy got worse and had to be admitted, providing she wasn't mid-lecture she'd get the train back to see her immediately I'm so lucky, I've got every faith in Sarah and I couldn't have a better vet!
