Hi all,
One of my mini-lops has a slightly sticky eye, that hasn't cleared up with antibiotic drops. He seems fine in himself, and it's barely noticeable, but I'd like to play it safe, and so the vet has suggested flushing the tear duct/cannularising it.
...while he's under sedation, they will do a proper dental check too, just in case we've missed something there.
Has anyone had any experience of this/does it make sense to do this?
And secondly, should I ask if his sister (they are bonded) should go in with him?
...finally, as they are outdoor buns, I am quite worried about putting him back outside after a sedation, given the effect of anaesthetic on a bunny's temperature control and this very cold weather -- should I have them both inside with me for the night?
Any thoughts/experience/advice greatly received!
