Hi glad to hear all is almost well and in a few days your vet should be able to tell you about the results of the urine sample

Well I think I must be extremely lucky as my dogs have only ever had to visit a vet once in 19yrs and the age of my dogs are 18,19 and 21yrs, although they may have to get injections next year if I put them in kennels as I can't take them with me when I go to judge ferrets in Denmark

As for the ferrets, I have given lectures on them at several veterinary colleges in the past and after living in an area where mixy and the rabbit hemoragic disease was rife none of my rabbits got either, lucky or what?

Re: Help my Bunny unwell

Hi, Glad to hear that Sammy is better,
My bun Coco has a mastitis? cyst on her chest, but I don't want to put her thru the surgery as my vet said she may not make it thru the surgery due to her age I guess? anyway I am treating her at home with neosporin that I rub on the cyst,( Iguess the neosporin draws out the bad stuff) where she can't lick at it but it's near impossible for her NOT to lick it,So if you put neosporin on Sammy's cyst be careful that she doesn't ingest it apply VERY lightly.... keep us posted on her OK?

Has you vet given her anything to easy the pain of the mastitis as this can be very painful for a small animal like a rabbit and it can occur over and over if nothing is done about it.

In most animals they treat it with Antibiotics.

My Vet's nurse told me about the neosporin, she said it's the bes thing you could use to ease the cyst, but Coco is not in any pain and she eats normally and is otherwise healthy and happy
