Urgent Medical Advice: If you need, or think you might need, urgent medical advice you should contact a vet. If it is out of working hours phone your vet's normal number and there should be an answer phone message with instructions on what to do.
You can ask your vet, but from what I've read some experts don't think probiotics work for buns. It's common for that to happen to the poop whilst they're on antibiotics tho, after they've finished the course I've found things normally go back to normal in a few days naturally, so you may not need anything anyway
I have for Atticus with his megacolon condition, they didn't do anything really. I haven't bothered for my normal buns, their poop just improved after a few days with no meds and it seemed unnecessary and extra stress to do it for them. I think the rabbit digestive system is really harsh inside? And the thought is nothing can actually survive it really, which probiotics need to be able to survive to do anything in the gut.. My exotic specialist thinks they're pointless for buns and a waste of money, I think it's one of those things though where everyone has a different opinion on it tho [emoji38][emoji38]
Yep, pretty much [emoji38] honestly I don't think we'll have rabbits long term, obviously gunna have the ones we've got and I want them all to live a very long time, I love my 4 so so much, but I find rabbits so fragile and tricky. I've mainly had dogs and cats growing up and I much prefer having a dog tbh (purely for the less worry, I much prefer the bunny smell, well lack of tbh as they're so clean, and I love how gentle and sweet rabbits are) so yea I absolutely love rabbits, but they make my anxiety crazy sometimes.. I think it doesn't help that Atticus and Clementine have a lot of long term health issues which require a lot of management, they're my everything though, I could never part from them, they're just very stressful! [emoji38]Haha so you say it's always the same
If it was a cat or a dog maybe it would be different but good thing I have Cookie. I really love him, sometimes even more than myself.
