New Kit
We adopted Alphie, a week old Harlequin bunny, for my son from PAH last Tuesday and all was well. We noticed he did sneeze occassionally last week but thought that could just be the change of hay, as we have a bale for our guinea's (he is not in with the guinea's). Now he has a slightly wet nose.
I took him to the vet this morning, as he was due his vaccinations, and she has put him on Sulfatrim for a week and not given him his vaccine, but reading the data sheets this is for gastro intestinal infections.
I was just wondering is this the right antibiotic and also have been reading could his wet nose be because of the heat as PAH is air conditioned and is has been quite warm since we've bought him home, his hutch he is out in the garden under a large shady tree. I will of course give him his full course of anitibiotics but just don't want my son to get too upset that he may have a poorly bunny (fortunately he is away on Scout camp at the mo).
Many thanks for your help with his, we've had guinea's for many years but never a bunny before.
