Cystitis transmittable?

[bunny momma]

Thank you, bunny momma.


Unfortunately, while I was doing Casper's health check just now, I found a small bump/lump on his jaw that wasn't there before, so we're going to the vets again today.

It is good to have it checked, though I hope it is something that does not require treatment. Sending hugs to you all.

Thank you for your hoping and the hugs, bunny momma. The vet said that for now it's best to just keep an eye on it, as he's eating well and the taking the risk of anaesthesia for an x-ray might not be necessary. So, hopefully it won't cause any trouble, and won't get bigger. I am always so worried he'll get an abscess because of his too-long tooth roots, but the vet didn't think it felt like an abscess, though he couldn't be sure without an x-ray.

Oh gosh, Sorry to hear your back at the vets again. Really hoping little Casper is ok? What did the vets say?

 

[joey&boo]

Sorry - didn't see your update. Vibes for your boy. He gets the best care & you'll know if it gets bigger - hoping not obviously

 

[bunny momma]

Sending vibes his lump stays small or goes away entirely.

That's okay. Thank you so much for the vibes, j&b, and for saying such a kind thing. I'm definitely keeping a close eye on it.

Thank you so much, too, bunny momma.

I've been decreasing Sophie's additional pain meds, and she's been without it for a few days now, and she's managing well. Casper seems to be peeing more easily, so they're both showing some signs of improvement. So, I think that must mean the Panacur is helping, which would mean they do have EC? Is there anything I should do to prevent them from getting unwell again after they're done with the Panacur?

FHB used to advise I gave mine panacur regularly (like averaging several times a year, 8 day course) but at times when I anticipated my bunnies being stressed (bereavement, house moves, bonding etc, to be reviewed with vet if they were ill with anything else). Its prob 10 years since Frances retired but my vet Ruth worked alongside her - I asked if the thinking of the practice has changed & she says not. Bereavement is a big one for me, just cos Noodle came down with really severe head tilt & EC episode within 24 hours of her half sister dying

Oh, that's very helpful to know. Thank you for explaining. That definitely makes sense to be careful in stressful times. Poor Noodle bunny.

I've seen Casper peeing normally now a couple of times, so it looks like he's feeling better.

Good news with Casper's weeing I'm sorry I didn't see your update about his jaw lump. I hope it doesn't get any larger, or better still it just goes away.

Good news about the peeing. Well done.

Thank you. That's really okay that you didn't see it. I really appreciate your hoping it doesn't get any larger or that it'll even just go away. I think it actually might have gotten a little bit bigger, but I'm not sure...

wonderful

Thank you.

Good news about the peeing. Well done.

Thank you, too.


Sophie's been peeing normally since yesterday, too. She's not showing any signs of pain anymore when she pees. I wish I knew whether it's the Panacur that's helping or if it's still an effect from the increased veggies. I'd like to know if it's EC or not.
