Many illnesses share similar symptoms but require different treatments. A medical exam is necessary for an accurate diagnosis, without which appropriate treatment cannot be given.
You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions. Even non prescription drugs can do harm if given inappropriately.

Urgent Medical Advice: If you need, or think you might need, urgent medical advice you should contact a vet. If it is out of working hours phone your vet's normal number and there should be an answer phone message with instructions on what to do.

It's ok. It was literally just rambles. I managed today but had to reschedule Fiver's appointment. Got one for Monday so it's not too bad. Shadowfax is still perfectly ok and her poos are fine so hoping it was just a one off.
Xena seems to be much happier. Her eye is looking good as well so I'm feeling more positive. She's been a ****** today and was lunging at me because I wasn't feeding her fast enough!
Fiver and Shadowfax are bar biting. I finally penned off my bed after I discovered they had been tearing my mattress up from under the bed. Of course they've just sat and barbit..
Fortunately I noticed it quite soon. They've made a medium sized hole and pulled out some stuffing.
On a night I take down the pen because I can hear them tearing anything up and can stop them...so Fiver decided to jump on my bed and **** on it whilst I was asleep. I'm at my wits end. I'm going to have to post in rabbit chat or something for suggestions to stop the bar biting and peeing/pooing on my bed. I'm beyond fedup.

Got a video of Xena today. This is what I am greeted with every time I walk past her room haha. My gorgeous girl. ❤ She has been happy flopping (scaring the **** out if me) and sprawling out again so I'm sure she is feeling happier within herself. Going to pop her to the vets this week or next for a checkup on her ears.

She looks absolutely gorgeous
Does she wait for morning treats?
You've given her a fantastic play area, though I got a temporary shock when I saw the white rabbit (?) on the house :lol:
It's actually an Ikea rat haha. She has a stuffed bunny somewhere in that room as well. She never bothers with them but figured if she was feeling lonely they were better than nothing. She's certainly not lonely haha. She loves having her own space. She goes mad when she sees me walk out if my room on a morning. Runs up and down and round and round lol. She periscopes because she knows how cute she is with her crossed front paws. ❤ She always gets something for it now haha. I can't resist and at this point I need her to keep her weight on. She got a fibafirst stick in that video...hence the happy running about to find "the perfect place" to eat it haha. On a morning she gets an alfalfa cube and porridge with her meds in, which is apparently the best thing in the world. She practically mugs me for it.
Well fibafirst is a food not a treat, so don't tell her that or she will want more actual 'treats' :lol:
She's a proper darling that bun
Alfalfa and porridge - yes I can see that featuring in Bunny Heaven
Xena is at the vets tomorrow for a check on her ears. I have an awful feeling that she may have some respiratory issue. I've noticed, in the past couple of days, that her breathing is more audible. Not noisy but I can hear her breathe, which is not normal. Her ears seem to be no better and are still making horrible squelchy noises. She's also getting less tolerant of the canaural and has even been trying to bite me and run away when I administer it.
Fiver is back at the vets for a check on his teeth and to weigh him (he had lost quite a bit of weight) and Shadowfax is going for a second opinion on her teeth. Vet thinks she needs a dental but I want to make sure because I can't really afford it on top of everything else.
What are your opinions on vaccinating Xena? She is due her combi and needs the new vhd2 vac. Bearing in mind that she is clearly not well atm and I'm really worried her immune system is shot. I don't think I'm going to have her much longer. Feeling really nervous about the vets.
I am also going to ask about a payment plan if Shadowfax does indeed need a dental.
I've also decided to sign onto job seeker's allowance and try to get a job to pay for it all alongside my dog walking business.
