Terramycin Water Antibiotics- Used for minor infections like eye
infections that won't go away with ointment. I typically use it for
treating after shows just in case.
Terramycin Eye Ointment- Of course for eye infections.
LA 200- This can be used for heavier, tougher infections like
Snuffles(if you want to try cure the symptoms). I use 1/2 cc for
rabbits from 4 - 6 Lbs and 1 cc for rabbits around 10 Lbs or over.
For snuffles, I will inject this about once every other day starting
the moment I see signs of snuffles. I usually use probiotics in the
water along with this to keep their digestive system from being
upset.
Probiotics- Used for regulating the digestive system through
bacteria.
Sulmet- Used for some digestive diseases. Works well.
Triple Antibiotic Ointment- Used for wounds after cleaned
Preperation H- Cuts swelling and irritation. I commonly use this
for Sore Hocks.
Injection Syringe- Of course used for LA200 for injecting.
Dosage Syringe(without needle)- Used for measuring liquid
medications to inject into water.
Dropper- I would use it to force feed a rabbit if I had to.
Fostering kit for babies
Measuring spoons- Great for measuring out powder meds such as
Probiotics or Terramycin.
Betadine scrub- Extremely important for wound care. I don't know
what I would do without it. Since it is strong I water it down until
it is weak tea colored consistency. Then I will soak the wound with
it as a final finish to cleaning
Stop Bleeding powder- Usually just for smaller wounds like a
bleeding nail.
Vanodine- Works two ways if needed. Can be used to disinfect a
surface or even a rabbit. Can also be used as a light
antibiotic for the rabbits to drink. Plus, can be put in the eyes
for temperaty infection treatment. Never been very effective as an
antibiotic so I like to use Terramycin and LA200.
Emergency Carrier- In case I have to bring a rabbit that needs
emergency care inside for extended periods of time.
Isolation Cages- Used for sick and potentially contagious animals.
I don't have a lot of room for completely separated cages so they
have to be small and I only have a few. I also keep these cages in a
nicely sheltered area that gets no wind no rain no and stays pretty
cool but not cold. I also use these cages for isolating new rabbits
for a couple of weeks before introducing them to my herd. Especially
if I don't know the condition they came from or they came from a
show.
Band Aids- For you if the rabbits decides to bit or scratch.
Sanitation wipes- To Sanitize an area where you are treating a
rabbit between tending to rabbits or to clean your hands between or
after handling sick rabbits.
