Ec - some questions

weedug

Mama Doe
My dear Mr Bubble has been diagnosed with ec. Unfortunately, it has caused a cataract in one eye and damage to the other. He gets around ok, but can crash into things at times.

I assume smell is very important to him, so how do I do the deep cleaning for ec without disorientating him?

Also, he is inside. How do I clean the rugs properly?

Last question, is it possible for a dog to catch ec from a rabbit?

Sorry for the silly questions :oops:

You could use a steam cleaner, steam will kill EC spores just as well as a disinfectant :)

It would be unlikely that your Dog could contract EC from Mr B, unless your Dog is very immuno-suppressed in some way. Whilst it is not 100% impossible for a dog to contract EC from an infected Rabbit it is very, very rare.

Many thanks Jane. I didn't think about a steam cleaner.
