Kidney Failure in Rabbits

Hello,

today the vet find kidney stones in my bunny. One is in the kidney, but the other is in the half of the ureter - trying to go out. He will be in the clinic everyday for infusion of Ringer Lactate to helping the stone go out and he will take Meloxidyl /Meloxicam for the pain.
Is there anything we can do to help him ? I`m very frighted from eventual surgery if the stone stuck. He`d been through anesthesia many times, because of the tooth problems.
Can you give us advise or other option to help him ?

Many thanks,
Tsveti

It has been three weeks. My rabbit has wet hair around chins and neck. Hair is matted and losing round chin and neck area. Yesterday, there was urine all over its back legs. I observe that every time it drinks, the water dribbles. Rabbit seems to be losing weight as well. I took it to the vet 2 weeks ago but she found nothing wrong with its teeth. Blood test was also fine. Is it because Oscar is getting old and that's why it is having some of these symptoms? Thank you!

My rabbit Bebe ( were not sure of her age, over 2 years though) Has been diagnosed with Kidney failure. I love her so much but my family isnt too supportive of her so i cant take her to a vet, i need a cheap way to help her. tHANK YOU.

I have meat rabbits. We have had them for about a year and a half now with no problems. We harvested some rabbits recently and we always look closely at the organs. This time we found some of the rabbits who were about 12-14 weeks old had what looked like air bubbles in the kidneys. They eat free feed 2/3 pellets, 1/3 black oil sunflower seeds, and all the alfalfa hay they can eat. We also have some greens like kale, arugula, butter lettuce, Brussel sprout leaves, broccoli leaves and occasionally spinach and carrots. We have no less than two and in some cases three bottles of water with a dash of apple cider vinegar. None of the rabbits have any symptoms of illness. They are all acting normally. No head tilt, no bloody diarrhea, all seemed as perky as always. There was some spots of sticky poop on the cage floor that did not fall through but not much. I clean out any soiled hay and mess every day. I reasearched as much as I could online but there isn't much I can find out there about kidneys that look like they have air bubbles in them. There were no white spots on any of the organs.

Hi,
My 2 year old rabbit, Charlie, has recently been diagnosed with kidney failure. The vet has given him something called ‘coatex EFA liquid pump’ for us to give him orally, telling us that it contains omega-3 which will help his kidneys. After some research on the product, I’m not quite sure what it’s meant to do for renal problems as it states it’s for skin conditions in cats and dogs. I was just wondering if you could shed some light on this as we don’t want to give Charlie anything that could potentially harm him?

My rabbit was diagnosed with renal failure at the start of October, about 5 days after I adopted him. He was kept in our local veterinary hospital and given fluids overnight and all the problems resolved themselves until I noticed his water intake increase dramatically yesterday and he has urinated excessively today (the same symptoms that made me take him to the vet before). He was underweight when I got him and I've been trying to get him up to weight but he's had trouble doing so despite having a very good appetite. He's about 6 years old and I want to know how long he may have and may at what point will he start to feel discomfort? He's an older bunny and putting him through lots of stressful treatments doesn't seem fair especially if it's not actually going to fix the problem. Any advise on how to manage this would be welcome, right now he's a happy bunny and I want him to have a good quality of life over quantity.
