    6 yr old rabbit bitten in leg. No idea what animal bit the rabbit. I assume rabies is possible. I have small children. Is the best thing to do is put the rabbit down?

  • Hi. I am concerned about one of my cats, Sunny. We are unsure of his age, but he was a full-grown cat when he wandered into our lives 5 1/2 years ago. At that time, the vet thought him to be 3-5, and he was already neutered, but obviously had lived on the street for some time. He's had various health problems over the years, but the most recent began New Year's Day (No, no parties here.). At first we would see the following behavior maybe a couple of times a week--but now it's many times, daily. He either wakes up and does this, or yawns and does this, or just suddenly does this: He opens his mouth part way and sort of trembles, like cats do when they...

  • HELP!!

    My 12 year old pitbull/lab mix was recently put on Rimadyl and now he is having trouble walking, getting up off the floor and moving in general. Could this be a reaction to the Rimadyl? A friend of mine said it sounded like a blood clot. Our vet has run a CBC and says everything is WNL. What should we do now?

  • Swollen leg

    Hi, I recently took my labador out to the beach and as he jumped into the water he landed funny and came out limping. On inspection I discovered that his back leg knee joint was badly swollen but he was still putting a bit of weight on it so I presumed it was just sprained and we've been resting him since. Its been nearly a week now since the incident and the swelling hasn't gone down at all so I'm starting to get a bit worried about it. He is putting weight on it when he walks, but when he's standing still he lifts it off the ground. Do I just need to rest him more or could it be something more serious? He doesn't appear to be in much pain but he has been very...
