Can abscesses cause a rabbit to stop eating? My bunny has one under his chin thats just developed. Hes on pain relief and antibiotics and is getting it removed tomorrow. He has eaten himself since monday. Im having to syringe feed. Are they really painful enough to stop eating? Im worries there could be something else going on.

That’s not a tortoise. That’s a turtle.

What a good little patient Charlotte was 😊😊

Thanks so much❤🇨🇦

This video was a life saver! I've been giving one of my bearded dragons sub q fluids weekly for about 8 months or so now and with him it is pretty easy because he freezes when he's unsettled so he doesn't fight me. I recently took in a rescue bearded dragon that also needs sub q fluids weekly for awhile but he is much spicier than the beardy I have been giving fluids to. The vet tech I saw walked me through restraint for a more spirited bearded dragon but I needed a refresher when the time came for me to handle his fluids. I was just about ready to give up and schedule him a tech appointment for his fluids when I watched this. He got his fluids, and I saved him the extra stress of another trip to the vet

Awww poor baby🥺❤️

Excellent except does it go all the way in? Kind of important

Whats in the solution?! I need it tonight or may lose my baby 😭

What happens if I accidentally stick myself?

I had a little Guinea pig who had a hidden cyst that had ruptured, she had a HUGE hole in her neck but we couldn’t get to a vet during covid. We washed it with antibacterial stuff but it didn’t heal very well, she passed a little while later but she was 7!

Thank you so much my mother class pet turtle needs a vitamin injection and the vet I went to explained it but even he had trouble with the method you explained I was able to administer the shot in less than 5 minutes safely and effectively

I’ve been advised to use salt water, and they cut it open with no stitches, and it’s like gluey string, any advice so when she goes back to the vet I can tell them please

Excellent video! LOVE that you change to a second needle! A sharp needle inserts more easily and is, therefore, more comfortable to the bunny. I also love the tip about pulling back on the syringe to check to make sure the needle is under the skin and there’s no air. And I bet most vets don’t tell their clients to shake the penicillin vial before administering! Great, great video.

Good video. But I highly recommend using a smaller gauge needle than what vets typically give their clients to use! Vets typically use 18 gauge needles. These are quite big and administer the fluids quite quickly, thereby saving veterinary staff time. But larger needles are more painful to the animal upon insertion. The higher the gauge number, the smaller the needle. I use a 20 gauge needle for giving subQ fluids to animals. Sometimes I even use a 21 gauge needle if the animal is particularly nervous or small. The Terumo brand of needles is excellent. They are the sharpest on the market, sliding into the skin like butter! It’s best to slightly warm the fluids, which feels much more soothing to the animal than a bag of cold fluid. It’s difficult for an animal or a human to relax when cold fluid is being administered.

I’m scared to hold her head😭

Just started this and did for the second time today with my turtle! This is helpful, although my turtle is very stubborn and won’t let me grab her arm. Takes about 10 minutes🤦🏼‍♀️

Is there a reason the sub q fluids would not bubble up? I have a severely dehydrated dragon where one side did, the other did not

So, you want to put needle in the muscle? Also, my vet when he had his first injection at the hospital did it on the back of his hand/paw on his front leg. Is it better to do the hand or the arm?

Very much informative..doc thank you so much for your guidance

Can you always do this if a bunny is dehydrated?

Thank you for this video ❤

i have the issue where the needles dont release the fluid. it stays in the syringe even after the plunger is pulled all the way forward.

This video is old but my girl is getting daily subcu fluids. I was demo'ed to do it near her back legs there on the extra skin. She's being treated for high uric acid.. maybe this is why? To directly port to the kidneys? Thanks!

How many mL per gram of body weight do you recommend? May need to do this with a younger uromastyx

Hi, I saw 23g needle when you drew the medication. And what the needle g when you injected? I saw gray color. Is it 27g needle?

i love turtles! I have tree 😍

So I just had issues going in at a about a 45 degree angle, I can see here the angle of the needle is much more acute...back to the turtle..

Thank you so much for this video!!! This helped me save my beloved sweet pidgeon! 🐦God bless your hands and your heart!

Iv got a pigeon that’s been attacked by a hawk it has an open wound under its wing into its chest. What can I do to help it heal other then antibiotics x

i can’t get the needle to penetrate my baby RES’s skin, dammit.

What temperature should the fluids be? Mine is at room temp, which today is probably about 80 degrees.

Damn u talk too much

How long until you close it back up?

Informational video. What can I use for a parrot instead a wet wrap? Would a normal bandage tape would work? She's developing injury on keel bone because she can't walk, her legs are disabled. And so she's a very very scared bird.

*Turtle…

best education video about this I've seen yet!

My vet has been injecting the antibiotic in the rear legs cause of a wound my res has in her rear leg. Ugh. Now I’m going to have to talk to my Vet about the efficiency of the shot. 😞 Thank you for your knowledge Dr.

Thank you if I ever have to now I know , I do my cows and dogs and cats and I have a rescue Tortoise so so great this video

what is the gauge of the needel?

Poor rabbit🥺💛

What a calm little guinea pig bless her

Working with rabbits is amazing. So many kinds. One thing that always made me question reality is when a head tilted rabbit puts there head back straight for like a minute or two. I'm like...but your a head tilt?? X.x

I have to start giving needles to my bun today I'm 15 and terrified I hope I do it right😣😭😭😭

I used to inject ivermectin with insulin syringe 0.2ml/kg to my rabbit to cure ear mites, this time I have injected 3rd dose but ear mites are not going. What could be reason?

there is a saline shortage currently- would his be safe to do with normal saline?

Might want to wear gloves YOUR NAILS ARE DIRTY

They make curved tipped syringes
