This is just asking for others experiences and thoughts. Poppy is under the vet already. On Friday I found a huge wee full of blood in the hutch she shares with her partner. Unsure who was responsible I separated them. It turned out it was Poppy and off we went to the vets. She was given baytril for 5 days. Yesterday was her last dose. I have 4 rabbits who are fed the exact same diet and the other 3 have no urine discoloration at all. As a VN I am 99% this is blood. Pebbles was a bit 'off' Friday afternoon/Saturday but by Sunday had picked up. Yesterday was a good day but at 9pm I found another huge blood red wee in the hutch and she was a touch 'off' again. This morning she refused her nuggets and ate very little greens. I've noticed she's gone from regular grooming of her hubby to not at all. I went to get her from the hutch to go the vet this afternoon and the nuggets had gone but she was lying down, stretched out, I had to look to be sure she was ok.
The vet again palpated her bladder/abdo and can still feel no obvious stones and this time no abs but metacam as he suspects she's possibly in pain (wish he'd given me that on first visit) We both suspect she is holding her urine because of pain which is why the huge ones, inbetween it's much smaller ones with less blood. She is approx. 2 years old and neutered.
Any one have any experience of bladder infections/stones etc. Interested to hear your thoughts. She's a foster bunny so have to use rescues choice of vet
Thanks in advance xx
