Thoughts please..... My two giant rabbits have lived loose I'm our large garden for the last three years with me shutting them into their aviary and shed at night. Last couple of weeks they have decided they didn't want to come in at night and as they have made large burrow s etc it's impossible to get them in if they don't want to. So anyway midnight on Sunday I heard awful screaming ran out to find huge Fox cornering daisy, chased it off and then realised basil had already been attacked but obviously fought off the Fox (he is very big and strong). Amazingly he seemed to have got off lightly.. Took him to vet to check and he only had tiny knick on ear and bruising and sprain to leg. Started him on pain killers and antibiotics in case even tho knick was tiny. All seemed well on Tuesday then he looked a little down in dumps but obviousmy put it down to stress/shock. Then today he has massively swollen face , eyes and genitals I spoke to vet (will be taking him back to vet tomo) and he sdems to think he has myxy! I said could Fox of passed it on and he said no just coincidence, I can't believe that!! How could it possibly have nothing to do with the attack when he hasn't got in in last 3 yrs and my other giant hasn't got it??? What are your thoughts? Could it be something else to do with the Fox attack?
Please don't have a go for not having them vaccinated I feel terrible.... My 2 small rabbits are vaccinated but I was advised the dose was no good for giants. This new vet said that's not the case
