Thank you very much
..
Ok heres an up-date -
My vet Tracey phoned, she had spoken to **** vet in edinburgh, everything has changed now.....:shock:.
Ok they basically said... Pringle has to come of paraffin altogether as they have found in rabbit cases that paraffin can actually make it worse and turn the other way, so have to try him off that, where- as my vet thought it would lubricate him more to help the poo come out.
He gets metaclopramide 3 times daily and zantac twice, they said that they find zantac to be the more sucessful drug to help gut and to keep him on that and when his guts moving again slowly cut down on the metaclop, they think he should be kept on Zantac long term.
Have to carry on with 1/4 cisapride once daily too.
When Pringle has a lapse they want me to syringe him LOADS of water. 20Mls minimum daily, they said this will work better than paraffin. Also have to add recovery to it as well.
He is to get one table spoon of pellets and the rest hay/grass/dandilions/etc all natural stuff which a wild rabbit would graze on... so if anyone has a list of outdoor plants/trees/weedsr etc that i can give Pringle feel free to let me know
(i know someone posted a list on this thread so will look back
).
Also... When we feel his teeth are starting to bother him a bit we are going to start giving him metacam, he never gets this home but the vet thinks it may be to do with his teeth too so a pain relief should help more.
..........Think that may be it!! so much to remember :shock:
Fingers crossed this works everyone
