To find out if your rabbit is stressed, count his/her breathing. He/she should breathe 30-60 times a minute. If he/she is stressed try physical therapy. Just pet your rabbit and talk to it gently.

He’s chubby and I don’t notice any weight loss. He still eats as usual. He does drink a lot of water. They said to listen to his heart to see if it sounds “like a washing machine”. I have no idea! Sometimes it does but sometimes it doesn’t. I can’t see the vet until monday. Am I freaking out over nothing? I need to know how serious this is.

Alexander Goodner Thank you for the financial advice that’s not the question I asked now when I got the puppy I was financially sound until I lost my job a few days ago but that’s not why I’m here I’m here to do what I can to help him but thank you for not answering anything at all your a crappy Vet
My chewawa has a puffed up face like swelling a human would have when they have a severe tooth ache. Unknown if she had a run in with another animal. Should I attempt to treat her face with ice. So far she does not react violently.

PK Dennis Sounds like an infected tooth to me – she needs to be seen by a vet. She will most likely be placed on antibiotics to fight the infection so the swelling can go down, then she may need a root canal to prevent a more serious problem from developing.
It might be an insect bite, or an animal bite.
Please get her to a vet as soon as possible so you can get to the root of the problem.
My dog was breathing really hard when I got home, expresses pain towards her rear end, won’t let me touch her tail, is gassy, threw up earlier and it had a quarter of an unchewed rawhide bone in it, now she’s very lethargic, walking around in pain, her breathing is shallow and is having spasms on her bed, she’s an otherwise healthy 3 and a half year old catahoula American bulldog mix…..
MY cat has been sick for 5 days with a fever. No vomiting no diarrhea except for a little on the second day. He has a fever, he’s drinking a lot, lethargic, not grooming. I took him to a vet who gave him something for the fever and an antibiotic shot. He’s eating and drinking which is good but the fever is not going down. The vet prescribed Fevadol which has paracetamol in it. We are in a country with no good vets and no real access to pet medication, but everything I have read says that paracetamol is poisonous to cats. I would give anything for him to get better, but there are no vets that I trust here and I am so confused on what to do. He’s obviously fighting an infection but the vet said he doesn’t seem to have a URI, he has no signs in his chest and no discharge from eyes or nose. I just don’t know what to do and it’s breaking my heart watching him in pain. please help.
He’s a 4 year old male.

Dawn Ferara, DVM Normally I would tell you to follow the doctor’s instructions but it seems paracetamol is acetometaphin which is very toxic to cats!!! However, without examining your cat it is impossible for me to really give you any advice. My recommendation is to try and find a vet you trust because your cat needs treatment.
Good luck

D A Thank you for your response. I know he needs treatment, I am very scared for him, but as I said there are no reliable vets here. Is there something over the counter that could bring down his fever?

Dawn Ferara, DVM No there really isn’t.
She’s already had two healthy kittens and has a couple more inside of her but we think the one that is coming out is stuck and she had been pushing on the same one for there hours
If he has a bothersome ear, it COULD be a foreign body inside the ear but it could also be an ear infection. Please get him to the vet.
Thank you very much for your help i will take him to the vet.. infection can happen in one moment to another i mean he was fine and 20 min lameanhe came to me i saw him shaking but he doesn’t complain or cry but he doesn’t let me grab his ear at all.
