I hope Crumpet makes a full recovery- it is possible:
One of mine spent about 5 days in a state of flaccid paralysis but she recovered rapidly. She was treated with a one-off steroid injection (steroids are not without risks so many vets use non steroidal anti inflammatories instead) then was put on iv fluids and given a course of panacur and septrin antibiotic. She needed to be kept warm and syringe fed until she was able to sit up.
The vet thinks it was most likely E. cuniculi but I opted for treatment rather than tests so don't know for sure.
Vibes for Crumpet xx
Keith did a similar thing but it was obvious what was wrong- he was in a big pool of diarrhea.
He wasn't responding to me touching just sprawled out. I rushed him straight to the vet who said he wasn't likely to make it but we'd give it a go, and one injection of antibiotics later he was back to life. Within 3 days he was like a new bunny.
Really hope yours will be a little fighter like my Keith. xxx
Crumps is at the vets now with a lovely lady vet. He's been placed on an IV and they're planning on doing some xrays.
They can't give us a definite idea what's wrong.. It could be a fracture, neurological or his heart right now though they said shock is the biggest worry because he's just so floppy and unresponsive.
I'm so so scared. He has been eating pooping and drinking fine up until when we found him. He was flopped out on his front with his front legs splayed like a 'Y'
if anyone has had a similar experience or has advice i'd welcome it.
