It's all come at once. U/D... Spay booked

It's March and Tigger's bunny MOT has all come at once!
She needs a good check up, her course of Panacur, first ever Mixy injection and her spay. I'm all at odds at which order to do them in though because I don't want to overload her.

crikey, I wouldn't know, but she needs to be in optimum health for spey and Myxo jab. Vibes for her, hope it all goes well, whatever order you do it in

When I had this problem I had Jellys vaccinated first and then two weeks later she was spayed. I figured if she was recovering from a spay she would be vulnerable and in my head whether this is right or not I thought she would be more vulnerable that way so thats why I did it that way.

I dont know what the experts would say but I would def get the mixo done first. Spring is coming and the nozzles and fleas will soon be out and about. So if it were me I would do mixo then two weeks later VHd, they spay, then maybe take a view on the pancur after that.

The Panacur should be done either right before or right after her spay as the recovery period can weaken the immune system and allow a dormant infection to take hold.

The Myxi vaccine should be given time to take full effect before she is spayed, I can't remember if it is 14 or 21 days though.

It's 14 days....just checked for you

Thanks very much everyone I'll book her in for her injection asap then book her for her spay 2-3 weeks after. How soon should I start panacur after her op?
She had vhd back in January, took her in for a check up and vet said might as well do it then.

Yes, I always do the myxi first; hope all goes well at the vets.

I dont & never have panicured so that wouldn't be top of my list.Perhaps spay,then if vet agrees,myxy jab when has 10day wound check if they agree to jab so soon after surgery.

She's booked in at 9.50 tomorrow morning. Hope she behaves haha, she was very good with the vhd injection.


Anything I should look out for in terms of side effects just incase and what can help? I'm sure it'll be fine but I'm a worrier and I like to know things just incase!

I dont think there are many side effects with mixi. Daisy has never had any at all.

Good luck x

I'm a worrier too dear, if there is something to worry about, I am there in spades.

I hope she behaves herself and all goes well, we look forward to hearing.

You rarely get a side effect from Myxi, might be a bit quiet but often thats more to do with "Mum we hate you for this" than the actual jab

Yes, she may sulk, Mr Snuffles sits with his face to the wall when he has been to the vet!!

Well, just to let you all know she was on her best behaviour. Got her home and she had a good old sulk haha.

Ha ha ha....they are so good at that arnt they. Daisy will even shrug me off if I try and touch him while im being "punished", with a "dont even look at me" Stare.

Glad she is okay bless her. x

I thought she would love, it sometimes takes Snuffie a day to come out of it and if we try and stroke him, he nudges our hands away. He soon perks up at dinner time however LOL!!!

It was really funny because while I was at uni my boyfriend went to talk to her. When you go in she normally sprints from wherever she is to greet you, he talked to her and she stayed where she was having a good grump, even when he stroked her she didn't even react so he turned around and pretended to walk away and she then decided to pay attention to him not wanting him to leave.

LOL!! that's great. She knew she had been sulking enough by then and put her pride in her pocket and decided to come back for a fuss. They all have such endearing little ways don't they?

Jo xx

Ha ha ha ha ...

thats so funny, you can imagine her thinking as he walked away......."ok you have been punished enough....Ill let you fuss me if you must!" ha ha ha

Yes, that is what Snuffie does. He either comes out for his dinner and is still off hand or comes up and tells us he has forgiven us. When he thinks we have endured his displeasure for long enough he will turn around and face us again.

Do you often get the feeling that we are just the serfs and by no means the boss in our own homes LOL?!!!

I updated the wrong post, now that's sorted here I am. I thought I'd do an update instead of another post.
Tiggers spay is booked for next Friday, we missed the boat on the 25% off neutering offer so now it's £85, and in all honesty I'm quite scared.
Everythings adding up with final year uni work, I'm trying to fit everything in for other people as well so I don't let them down, my mums ignoring me because I won't talk to her about feeling awful simply because I don't know what's getting me down. Some days I'm up, some days I'm down so now all this anxiety and stress has me over worried about tiggers op.
I'm so sorry if I sound like some sort of ranty teenager.

Oh honey I hope you are okay.

I dont think you are alone in feeling this way about her op. I was exactly the same when daisy was de-plummed. It was a mix of knowing that I was doing the right thing and feeling guilty I was putting him through it at the same time.

But it really is the right thing, and i dont think you will stop worrying until after the op and she is feeling better, I know I didnt.

You dont sound like a ranty teenager at all, you sound like someone who has a lot on her plate, so im sending you oodles of hugs, and remember we are here for the bun loving people as much as the buns, so feel free to start a ranty thread that we can all back you up on.


I really hope that everything works out for you. I find that a cuddle with a bun really helps de-stress.

Oh darling, I know exactly how you feel, right down in the dumps and no, you are not being silly and ranty and we are all here for you love.

Hugs

Thanks lovelies really made me smile!
