Hello listers, The problem with this rabbit getting pasteurella in the first place is that the little bugger won't eat pellets. He flat out refuses. I have tried mixing them with banana, applesauce, sprinkling them on his lettuce, as well as trying to syringe feed them to him. All to no avail. So I have kept him on Romaine and collards, wheat breat, rolled oats, a piece of an apple, and shredded wheat cereal. I have started him on vitamins, but still don't now how to get his diet balanced. Does anyone have any rabbit knowledge? I am going to use colloidal silver for the pasteurella (bunny cold) in his eyes, and am thinking about using C.S. as a nasal spray for his nose but am concerned about the C.S. getting to his mouth and from there to his digestive system. His health is kinda fragile right now, so I need to be careful and stick to tried and true remedies. Thankyou for your thoughts. Cindy
Dear Cindy, How about feeding alfalfa hay? Mine loved it. I`d get him off the bread because of the yeast. Give him more hard veggies; carrots, jicamas, and the like. They need to chew, so give him something wooden to gnaw on. The do need access to their dung, they rechew it. Yucky to us, but it is a normal rabbit thing to do. Have you checked for a rabbit newsgroup? Marsha
