https://www.vetsurgeon.org/f/clinical-questions/20077/rabbit-cataractsHi there, Can anyone advise me regarding rabbit cataracts? I saw a 4 year old lion head today. He has a mature unilateral cataract and I think the other eye is starting as well. His clinical exam was nad (no lesions/inflammation around the eyes,en-USTelligent Community 10https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/120968?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 17 Sep 2014 14:10:56 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:775c1f61-076e-4548-819d-2d6136f3de91HMC<p>Fenbendazole to a rabbit with clinical signs consistent with E. cuniculi is never a bad thing.&nbsp; Of course you could do serology for IgG titres but I would start fenbendazole before waiting for the results. I would also recommend that any areas that the rabbit urinates in are cleaned well several times in the 28 day course to prevent re-infection with spores shed in urine. </p> <p>You say unlikely... I don&#39;t know if there have been any studies of seroprevalence in rabbits in Ireland... I know it exists over there from one paper I read. </p> <p>I have never had to treat a guinea pig.&nbsp; Interesting question. Guineas can be seropositive. I&#39;m guessing we don&#39;t know a dose rate for guineas.&nbsp; You would have to explain that the product is off license (not that it is licensed in rabbits, but I&#39;m ramble). </p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/120824?ContentTypeID=1Sun, 14 Sep 2014 22:54:00 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:7667ac7d-f680-4020-9c51-4586ce17e97fMiriam Lodewyks<p>I referred a similar case for surgery a few months ago. The surgery itself went very well, but this rabbit started losing weight and died 6 weeks later, despite valliant efforts to save it. Could be a coincidence, but an exotic-specialist was suspicious it might be connected to E.cuniculi, somehow....</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/120822?ContentTypeID=1Sun, 14 Sep 2014 22:10:57 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:1f74b9d5-6030-4f33-aa6a-1c5836028489Anonymous<p>I nearly feel stupid asking this but this client that I saw appeared very particular so I want to get this right: I spoke to an ophthalmologist who said I should treat with fenbendazole in case it is E. cuniculi. I obviously should treat the guinea pig that lives with him then as well?</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/120804?ContentTypeID=1Sat, 13 Sep 2014 16:43:32 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:5a76e5b3-a742-4d03-9082-076d8cd527e6Anonymous<p>E.
