    Panacuring older rabbits

    I've recently got a new companion for one of my rabbits who lost her mate during May. She is already with the new boy.. I'm considering doing 9 days panacur for them both. She's had head tilt last year (unknown cause). Her mother (now passed) also had this so I do think EC was a possibility. I...

    What is the longest you've kept a rabbit on penicillin?

    I've recently treated my rabbit for 6 weeks on penicillin G procaine (SA). He initially had a week of daily shots, then we spaced out to every second day. He's been off it now for a little over a week and I've noticed his "sneezing" has returned and sometimes hear a gag/cough. He initially...

    Does ivermectin give added protection against biting insects?

    A few years ago, I heard that ivermectin might help protect rabbits from biting insects that risk carrying myxi and rhdv. The person who said this was not the most reliable source of info! Has anyone heard of this? Is it a myth? I'm assuming the ivermectin makes the blood less attractive to...

    Buprenorphine and Metaclopramide

    I'm just looking for some clarification. Can Buprenorphine and Metaclopramide safely be used for a rabbit in gi stasis? None of my bunnies are in stasis (thank goodness). This is about a rabbit on another forum. I've also wondered about this combo for some time. A couple years back I thought I...
