I agree with above, it's not a good idea to let sibling or young rabbits breed as you risk the mother and babies health. Separate them and ensure the accommodation is secure as the male may be very...

Although the RCVS and BVA have advised vets not to go back to emergency only as strict as March, individual practices can make their own decisions and are recommended to encourage the stay at home...

Aww no I'm sorry :( they could've been accidentally carried outside the nest attached to mum's test I think is possible? Or mum could've moved them outside if she was rejecting them. Do you have any...

I'm really sorry you've lost Neville :( I do think ultimately rabbits are happier in pairs, but there is no need to rush. Take time for you all to grieve then in time you could contact rescues for an...

Jack dog would love that!! No snow here, just very frosty this morning

My sister got a pair of lops for then 6 year old nephew, they were friendly and would sit still to be stroked but he lost interest in a couple of weeks sadly. This was after a long time of asking for...

Ah they're my favourite breed :love: I always wanted one to call Apricot, not very imaginative :lol:

Lovely! Is one an apricot Siamese??

Thank you both, it is stressful atm! Yeah I was looking online for something with Vit C & D in etc and saw the Oxbow ones and recognised that they do joint support as a reputable and recommended...

I hope so! I think the only other alternative would be some kind of penicillin injections?? Will see how he goes! I'm having a mess of a time with antibiotics in general atm, at 8am and 8pm it's abx...

She did but it was over the phone and I didn't catch it as I was scribbling stuff down too, I think she said Pseudomonas, I wasn't sure I didn't recognise the name so I was googling it after and...

Thanks Jane, I have some echinacea. I've also ordered some supplements made by Oxbow, not sure how good they are but he can have 1 as a treat a day anyway.

The swab results came back, they grew...

I'm so sorry. Thinking of you and Luna today xx it isn't fair, but I'm sure you're making the best decision for her. I had a guinea pig same symptoms in January and we opted to open her up, she was...

Yeah it is plastic I'm afraid! I've luckily never had any issues, I open it when it arrives and store inside since all mine are indoor buns

I think it originated from a character in a TV series called Karen who just liked to complain etc, now it has got out of hand but wasn't meant to be related to the name just so happened that was the...

So he's had the swab done under sedation, results in a few days. The vet suggested getting a supplement for immune support, has anyone got any recommendations?

Yeah the swab goes 2-4cm into the nose, which if I remember was the instructions for coronavirus swab when I had it. actually thought the nose was fine, the tonsils much worse!! My partner is taking...

Thank you, this is also my concern. Will discuss it tomorrow. Bigwig and Jasmine don't tolerate anything anywhere near their noses so they'd be no chance you'd get a swab from them and I'd imagine...

Has anyone's rabbit had a nasal swab done conscious? I've read in a BSAVA rabbit medicine book that a swab can be done conscious if the rabbit tolerates it. Jake has been diagnosed with pasturella in...

Oh gosh, I'm really sorry. Thinking of you xx

Bless him, I would also consider going elsewhere. In the past when I've had small animals very poorly with breathing the vets have done a conscious X ray, or when I had a rabbit with heart failure...

I agree with above. It doesn't sound very good practice for a vet to say a patient won't last over the weekend etc, if you search your location and vets you may find some good rabbit savvy vet...

I'm sorry, thinking of you xx

I would use it in an end of life situation to make the rabbit more comfortable. My dog has had it under direction of his vet

I'm sorry Jelly appears to have a heart problem, but pleased you've got some answers. I hope with the medication the condition can be managed well
