Both pen and bicillin are good, Well penicillin is the short acting version
and it works as well but it must be given every 24 hours, I can’t buy it in
California now, can’t even buy terramycin. It’s nuts here. I have used both
successfully. The bicillin stays in the system much longer and is easier
not to give a shot every other day to bunnies and not daily, but now iam
finding penicillin is back ordered. All because of covid? Why?

Poor little Frodo. 🙁 I hope he improves soon Brenda. Not having bunnies--
anymore (both mine have since passed away as very elderly buns), I sit and
read what's going on with so many other people's rabbits and wow they seem
so prone to certain issues, don't they? And some of those problems can
really be difficult to treat. It's starting to remind me of all the folks I
know with ferrets.....they have so many health issues, much more so than
rabbits do. I volunteered my time to open up a online store for a
non-profit here (Washington Ferret Rescue and Shelter), and I also create
designs for some of their merchandise. The more I am around all these folks
the more I realize just how heartbreaking keeping ferrets can be. They
really drew the short end of the stick when it comes to health issues.
What is everyone turning to now that bicillin is impossible to get a hold
of?

Please put Frodo on the prayer list (or update his issue). For the past 2
weeks he has head some tilt and lots of dizziness and considerable trouble
walking from a double ear infection. The antibiotics (first Baytril oral,
only 1 injection of Pen G, Baytril topical ear drops, Panacur, then a week
later (last week) we added daily injections of Pen-G) are not killing the
infection. I have trouble putting in the ear drops, but they seem to be
getting down in there, although I’m never sure if it’s getting down into
the ear canal /ear drum or in the other cavern that doesn’t go anywhere.
Vet says it’s a “sterile infection” and antibiotic isn’t crossing the blood
brain barrier. The vet is asking a compounding pharmacist if there is
anything topical we can put in his ears. She also may try steroid ear drops
as a last resort before we PTS. I’m aware that he is 9 ½ years old, so we
are trying to figure out if he can be cured, at least enough to have a good
quality of life. We started Reglan injections yesterday to get gut moving.
He started eating again last night and today without being force-fed, so
maybe we can keep him stable enough to give the antibiotics more time. He
sleeps a lot and still grooms himself and sometimes his bonded mate too.
He loves his greens and will eat a whole garden if I let him, but vet said
only 2 cups a day, less if he gets diarrhea. I hope the vet can find a
topical drug that will help. The vet is going to loan us a UV laser to use
on his ears twice a day. Please also pray for me as I’m having some
health issues and am stressed out.
love,
Brenda and Frodo and Balin
