Followup if you're interested. I got a call from the vets at the U. of S. CVM SAC. George's swab culture and sensitivity test came back from the lab.

It's pseudomonas aeruginosa. While it can become an acute infection, it's generally an opportunistic one. It's present, basically, everywhere.

There's mostly good news. The level of bacteria they got suggests strongly it's not an acute infection. It's one of the bacteria that can cause the snuffles, and rabbits can live with it for the rest of their lives. Treatment for non-acute is basically just symptom management - I'll be giving metacam for another week or so to keep inflammation down in his sinus cavity. If possible I'll start nebulizing him again.

The only bad news is that if it does become an acute infection, it's hard to treat. It's resistant to most common antibiotics, and the last-ditch ones that are used to treat it in human cases aren't safe for rabbits.

Big George is still Big Mad about being grabbed and burrito'ed. He actually charged me tonight before I'd even put my hands out towards him. He's gonna love being stuffed into the nebulizing chamber again...

Anyways, I want to thank you all for your wisdom and words of kindness. I feel less stressed now than I have in more than a week.

Trivia: going through his records this past week, I realized he's 8. 8! He was born in the spring of 2018, and I drove out to the middle of nowhere to get him and Gracie that autumn.

Für den März sind wir fertig mit inhalieren vom TOBI Antibiotikum mit unserer Tochter. Wir bekämpfen den besch*** Pseudomonas Keim in der Lunge und müssen insgesamt 28 Tage lang 2x am Tag inhalieren. Bis zum 9. April müssen wie nun noch.
Das Inhalieren ist super mühsam aber so müssen wir wenigstens nicht ins Spital. (Vor dem inhalieren vom Antibiotikum muss sie noch MucoClear 3% inhalieren und #coughassist machen, deshalb dauert die ganze Sache auch immer ne Weile)
