My lot will take most stuff if it is squirted onto carrot tops or fresh greens.

Many illnesses share similar symptoms but require different treatments. A medical exam is necessary for an accurate diagnosis, without which appropriate treatment cannot be given.
You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions. Even non prescription drugs can do harm if given inappropriately.

I put the Metacam on a Shreddie and Miffy ate it without even blinking! :lol:
Glad to hear that Bubbles is feeling much better! Sorry you found yourself in a tight spot and please don't be upset if anyone came across as nasty - I know these guys well and they're only concerned about the welfare of your bunny.

I aways put my bunny's medicine on his front foot to lick off. It's not very exact, but he hates having anything on him, so at least I know he is getting some medicine when he cleans it off.

I Havn't been able to U/D in a while, so here it is:
After many many more visits to the vets, Bubbles finally has the bandage off!
Although his leg will be twisted the wrong way round permanently its better than only having three legs.
He is still needing to stay in the small cage and he is due to see a vet in 2 more weeks. He is off the painkillers as it is healing. He is eating and drinking fine which is great! Can't wait to see his face when he see's grass in the ground again! LOL I'll post a pic of him when he's finished eating.

Bubbles is doing so well.
He was moved into a bigger cage about 2 weeks ago and has another check up on wednesday!! Then if the vet thinks he has healed then he can run around outside in the run
