last night we noticed a red path around berites eye it looked very sore..but sometimes rew do look like that. On closer inspection( hed been cuddled a lot during the day ont he floor like he loves and it wasnt spotted then) last night we saw he had a red patch onhis upper eyelid..well just above it but it was afefcting the eyelid..it was swollen and had a blood ***** mark on it. I bathed it in salt water ( not the inner eyelid the bit above it!) and Bif was furiously cleaningit for him.
he seeemd fine in himself and i know bif n himhad aright royalpuch up the day before.i tried to sperate them by pushing a oty dog in between them it didnt work so i squirted them both.they were loved up 5 mins later.
this morning thees a huge pile of soft poo from bertie..highly unusual...but we also found an adult flea on his head last night no flea grit but an adult flea so we did all of them cept new bunny with advantage and he manages to scratch at it and lick it off no matter where we or the vet puts it!
maybe it was a flea bite..maybe a bif bite..maybe a bif scratch or maybe a kitten scratch as salem goes nuts rubbing himslef al over bertie n purring n drooling and 90% of the time bertie loves it too but then sometimes an excited claw might appear whilst salems do treading thin air..dumb moggie!
it hink its more liely a scarp with bif or a flea bite cos hes diggin at it with his foot today and the swellinga gone.no sign of blood or pus..nothing just like it went down like a deflated ballooon!
i cant get an appointment today and couldnt get to the emrgency vet its so far away itd cost me over £60 in taxi fare! but i was willing to try and find an animal ambulance..
but then the vet from the hospital i cant get to rang me..she said it sounded like aburst abscess but i said it was no pus..she said its cos between me n bif weve kept it clean for him..hes bright eyed bushy tailed and scoffing..and scratched once with his back foot.
were going to see the vet 2moro..sadly not petras day on which im not looking forward to but hey!
his eyes fully open no discharge etc so i hope hell last till then..the vet said were doing best thing bathing it anyway and the fact hes ok inhimself is goodf. bif had a smaller one same last night..its gone this morning..no trace whatsoever but berties is red and bald! thanks to bif no doubt!
