Hi everyone,
My little man bailey has been suffering with ‘we think’ sludge in his bladder..
He has bottled non calcium water, low calcium herbs and hardly any treats but every so often has a blip where he struggles to urinate and has even had a slightly bloody willy on 1 occasion.
He eats tonnes of hay, ings and oat hay. Has 1/4 egg cup full of selective science pellets twice daily and also drinks a fair amount. (Nothing worryingly)
Hes had a number of urine tests which show no indication of infection but some do contain sludge. He’s also been tested for EC, which we’re waiting to hear back on. He’s also had ultrasounds which show no stones but does show a small amount of sludge in his bladder. The vet is saying it’s not an overly large amount and wouldn’t bother many rabbits but are now suggesting we flush his bladder?
The vet has explained it’s not huge and should be relatively easy but wanted to see peoples views? And whether it helped cure your buns?
Thanks so much xxx
