My 6 yr old chihuahua "willy" was sick last week with a large bump under his right eye. I took him to the vet and she said it was probably a tooth abscess. She put him on antibiotics and scheduled him for an abstraction. The antibiotics seem to make him feel better but the bump stayed. After 5 days the bump seemed to rupture on the outside of his face leaving a small bloody spot but apparently didn't drain because the bump is still there although not as big. Is this a tooth abscess or not? The abstraction will be very expensive and I want him to get well but don't want unnecessary surgery or expense.

Not a clue what's going on
Posted on 2009/05/31 by UserAbout 5 days ago Homer started screaming out when we would pet his ear. Then it continued when he started doing it when no one was around him, just out of no where, and it wasn't just his ear after that. If you touch his legs, neck or feet he screams loud. A couple nights ago he started pacing back and forth very slow while panting and holding his head straight out. While doing this he also convulses with a blank stare in his eyes. He can not lay down, when he tries the second his stomach hits the floor he screams. This screaming that he does ranges from ear piercing to just whincing for sometimes 10-15 seconds.

rabbit not well-not eating
Posted on 2009/06/13 by Userhi, our rabbit is between 5-6 years old and is usually quite large and fluffy but over the last few days he appears to be extremely thin and doesn't appear to be eating. He has sore/wattery eyes and seams very weak and shakey. Is there anything we can do for him asap?
