    Cataracts

    I had a rabbit that developed cataracts due to EC, it was his only symptom (we did find out later when he had a CT scan he also had one non functioning kidney although this never caused any issues). The first mature cataract developed within a few days of first appearing and not long after the...

Its growing back now He...

    Bonding an elderly boy into a trio - pointers

    Thanks for input all, definitely food for thought. I have msg'd the rescue asking if we could bring Philip to the rescue to meet face to face first. I'll also see if they have any older single buns available.

    Bonding an elderly boy into a trio - pointers

    Hi, thanks for your reply. I think I’m probably underselling Philip a bit, he’s actually a really confident and outgoing little guy. And while he’s a bit wobbly sometimes he normally spends a lot of time running about all over the place and following us about like a dog, he’s very active for his...

    Bonding an elderly boy into a trio - pointers

    Hello all, We very sadly lost one of our bonded pair of boys last week and we are looking to get some companionship for his partner who is very sad without his husbun. Philip is an older boy (10) with some mobility issues due to having spondylosis (he is on Loxicom long term for this), he can...

    what are the pros & cons of a 13 year old bunny doing cataract surgery?

    Its not common, we had to go to London (from Scotland) to the RVC for it and the lenses were brought in from Germany. It made a huge difference for MJ, he was more or less back to his old self once he had recovered. Long term, he's on eye drops for the rest of his life and has 6monthly check ups...

    what are the pros & cons of a 13 year old bunny doing cataract surgery?

    We have had cataract surgery on one of our buns (lens replacement surgery) He had very rapid onset cataracts, initially just in one eye which made little difference but when the second cataract developed (from no cataract to "complete" cataract/completely blind within ~48hrs) it had a huge...

    I am so sorry you lost Dawn :cry: Regarding your original question, I am sorry I don't have an answer but it is something that I think about regularly and also feel that it is important. I hope you are able to find a solution that you are comfortable with x

    FAO Those of You Who Have/Have Had a Rabbit With EC

    First symptom (cataracts) appeared in November (2014), we didn't have him tested for EC until the second cataract appeared (we saw my own vet who consulted with the D1ck vet and decided it was very unlikely due to no other symptoms) which was 4 months later in March. He's been treated with...

    Weird "Guinea Pig" like noise??

    Is it the same noise this bun makes? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_UQdeJ7qzyg I heard one of my boys do it once, he was blind at the time and we had visitors (we rarely have visitors) so he could smell them and knew something was different, he wanted to investigate. After a few mins he...
