He looks like Oxo, he's really struggling with his back legs, but he's not giving up, he was out of the crate this morning and moving around the living room, he has clean vet bed in the morning and night and his litter trays have been cut down so he can get in and out.Rabswood wrote:Prayers for this little one.

Re: Could Dodger have vibes please
He's dragging one of his back legs, I will contact the vet to see if I can up the dosage, he's still on panacur, baytril and metacam, some days he seems better than others, it's so sad to see him like thisbunlover wrote:Poor dodger. When Dora had her ec she had seizures we upped the metacam and did another course of pannacur but at a double or may have even been triple dose (on rabbit savvy vet advice) I wondered if this might be an option it certainly helped her leg issues and incontinance. Her seizures. Sadly continued though she was very happy in herself till the end. She did become incontinent again later towards the end though but just a thought.

Re: Could Dodger have vibes please
I spoke too soon
Dodger had another seizure last night, this one lasted longer This morning he seems to be his normal self and couldn't wait for breakfast, he's now under the dining room table which is his favourite place
He's adapted well to not having the full use of his back paws and can get around very quickly (especially when he knows there's a treat or food available

Sounds like he is just learning to adapt well with whatever life throws at him.
He is such a fighter! Vibes for the wee guy xx

He probably doesn't know anything about it at the time ( most people don't) so he's not suffering during a seizure but of course it looks scary for you. He won't be in pain as he's on the metacam and they cope well with leg problems.
.. you just have to make sure his surroundings are soft so he can't injure himself, which I'm sure you do..
I remember once when bunlover was on holiday and I was minding Dora ,bunlover said.. if she has a seizure don't touch her or you'll make it worse...she'll come out of it and wonder where she is for a few minutes then will go on as normal. Dora was having 1 seizure every 4-6 weeks at that time and as she had just had one we didn't expect her to have another in the next fortnight so I had made no special provision.
....but Dora had a seizure in my rockery and I was initially frantically trying to put my hands under her fast moving head so she wouldn't crack her head, so I had to pick her up, her limbs flailing and put her on the lawn where she could roll and thrash about safely.
Dora used to lose control of her bladder during a seizure so you would have to gently wash her later but you had to be really careful washing her or she would fit again.
Is it the 28day course of panacur that Dodger has?
I do hope the extra meds will help.
