Head tilt?

as yous all know Honey seems to be suffering from breathing problems and today when she was out for exercise i noticed when shes standing still her head falls to the side :shock: :? i checked her ears and i cant see any signs of ear mites and the only other thing i can think of is a brain problem is there anything else that causes a head tilt? this is worrying :? shes really scaring me at the moment and i cant get her to the vets until tomorrow and im away on Holiday on Wedensday i really dont want to leave her if shes ill

Head tilt can be an indication of various problems, 2 possibilities are EC or an inner ear infection ( you wouldn`t necessarily be able to see this by just looking in her ears ).
Either of these would prompt require veterinary treatment as they can affect the brain & may also cause pain.

There may well be other reasons but these are the 2 that instantly spring to my mind.
i would definately get her to the vets.

Good luck,
Su.x

Is Honey on treatment for her breathing problems?

Causes of head tilt include middle ear infection and EC.
If Honey is not currently on antibiotics she needs to be seen by a Vet TONIGHT. If she is on antibiotics she may also need anti-inflammatories and if EC is suspected, Panacur. I really think you need to contact a Vet tonight.
Please keep us posted

thanks for your replies Honey has just finished a course of Baytril for her breathing. im going to ring the vets now as i know they have an emergancy service but they charge £100 for emergancy appointments but it will all be worth it and at least it will make me feel a little calmer as im abit panicky and the moment :shock: i will keep yous updated

Good luck at the vets.
Please keep us updated.

also when i was at the vets to pick honey up the vet asked me if i would like another 2 rabbits :shock: i asked why and she said that to certain circumstances a lovely couple are having to give up their gorgeous buns and their looking for the best home for them their both neutered and vaccinated and the vet thought she'd ask me because she thinks im a good decent rabbit owner (so chuffed she said that) i didnt give her an answer i just said id have a think about it and if the buns still havent got a home when i come back from my holiday il possibly take them on :? but what do yous think? if i take them on i wont be able to adopt a gorgeous bun for RR my fav bun being honeybunnys Spencer
