your vet sounds great. hopefully the nebuliser will help alot. i don't know about bringing him in though and then back out again. bisc and matt used to live outside in their shed but i moved them both indoors. but if oscar isn't happy inside then he might feel stressed. i don't know, someone else will advise i'm sure. xxx __________________ sleep peacefully patch and smudge, miss and love you both so much xxx

Older Rabbits can take much longer to recover from a GA. Did he have bloods taken before the GA to check his Kidney/Liver function ?

Bringing him in for 20 mins for his nebulizer will do no harm at all. To be cautious, I'd let him "dry off" for a little bit after his nebulizer. I had a feeling that Oscar was happiest as an out door bun.

A couple of links for you. The first one has a positive ending. The second one is very sad. I hope your bun gets better soon. http://forums.rabbitrehome.org.uk/sh...d.php?t=195035 http://forums.rabbitrehome.org.uk/sh...ghlight=autumn

Obviously I am unable to say if this is the same as what your bun has but Jims suffered with 'yellow leggies' when we used excel dried grass as his cage linning and hay, bless him nothing was soaking up his pee and he was flicking his leggies a lot which showered everything with pee __________________ Mummy Rachael & Baby Jimbles

Really? I know I'm no vet but that sounds a bit odd If Oskar is healthy I'd have thought the risk of him not being revaccinated (and therefore contracting myxo as an unvaccinated rabbit) were far more significant than the risks to him of being revaccinated After all, if he was already incubating myxo then it's unlikely to make any difference to his prognosis whether he had the vaccine given or not

My vet did a biopsy and just called me to tell me my bunny michelle's cancer (inwhich she had a tumor removed last week) is a type of breast cancer, and that its an agressive cancer. so far its been a week and the tumor has not grown back, and shes doing fine besides her suspected teeth problem in which im bringing her in next tue to get checked out. does anyone have any experience with this, as i cant find much on the internet. i...
