So after a really worrying day on Saturday (Len was completely lethargic, hardly eating) we woke on Sunday to a much more lively bunny so I think the Metacam must be working. His snuffles have cleared up and he's eating a lot more (he's not so keen on his greens but scoffing loads of hay) and the scabs seem to be shrinking.
We got another email from the vet saying that he had been in touch with the vax manufacturer again and although many bunnies do come through the other side, he couldn't promise that Len wouldn't get worse and that it could possibly be fatal.
I'm allowing myself to believe that as Len is getting better by the day we might be out of the woods, however I think the scabs are really bothering him. He has a big one on his back and when I was grooming him on my bed yesterday, as soon as I got near the scab he started furiously licking my bed! And whenever I've touched it since he licks whatever is near him. I've seem him twisting and struggling to groom his own back and I wonder if it's really itchy. Does anyone know whether I could put some calamine lotion on it, just to make him a little more comfortable?
Thanks
