I took in a Velvet Rex a week ago and he keeps sneezing and wheezing, I have give him some baytril but it doesn't seem to be shifting it. Does anyone think it could be pastuerella, I am going to my vets this afternoon and will mention it. The person I took it in from said he had always been like that and his vets told him it was nothing to worry about.

had a chat with my vet and she says to keep him on the baytril tiill next week, ( she says it sounds like pasturella), and then we will try penicillin, he is absolutely fine in himself, eating and drinking normal and also very lively.
I am so good in taking everybodies demics in. I am sure people think oh my bun is going to start costing us money we will give it to kay. I fall for it everytime (but wouldn't be without any of them).
