Rolo has been back to the vets AGAIN! She's had two UTI in the last few months and each time they seem to clear up with antibiotics and then they come back again. The vet said last time we'd try a blood test etc if it happened again.
For the last two days Rolo has looked like she is incontinent, with urine on the hutch floor and on her back legs. So it seems it's back again. They weighed her again today and she's lost 10g. I can feel her bones, whereas my other rabbit Ozzie (in the avatar) is round and soft and i can't feel his spine.
So this time we've had blood taken and now I'm going to try and get a urine sample - I have cleaned the hutch and litter trays with anti bac cleaner (pet one) and wiped it all away until it's absolutely dry. I haven't put in any hay and I'm hoping she'll use it - but i doubt it! loL!
ANy advice on how to get the cleanest urine sample possible and any advice on what might be the problem with Rolo?
Many thanks xx
