14 June Gracie's turn!

Update posted by Bunny Rescue Bulgaria

It was Gracie's turn for her ear procedure. Both her ears are inflamed, but fortunately only one bull has pus (in Elliott both bulls are full of pus). Gracie's ear canal width allows us to use a video otoscope to flush both ear canals. For the procedure, she was anesthetized (intravenously and with gas anesthesia), and a rigid endoscope was inserted into the external ear canal with a video otoscope. Bacteriology samples were taken during the procedure and both canals were flushed. The left canal is very narrow and even with the narrowest endoscope we cannot reach her eardrum. Her right canal was filled with a lot of pus and parts of the mucosa and steam torn the eardrum. This procedure is repeated weekly. Until the next procedure, Gracie will drink anti-inflammatory and put antibiotic drops in her ears. Elliott was with her for company and a checkup. Unfortunately, there is a complication in the healing of his wound, and the ear heals more slowly. Although the wound on his ear looks painful, he feels good - he eats very well. The wound is cleaned daily and the veil is washed (then a bandage is applied).
