Sierra has Coccidia

[pitc9]

She threw up in her crate the other day, it was pinkish clear fluid and had specks of blood. Then had watery bloody diarrhea last night, (sorry for the details) so we went to the ER. $268.00 later.... I have one sick sad little girl at home. Her big brother is doing his best to keep her spirits up!! Please keep her in your thoughts!
I took a stool sample to the vet today to have Buddy checked. it's going to be hard to get rid of, I'll be picking up poo everytime as soon at they do it, then I have to spray the grass with bleach.
I don't know for sure how she got it, but it can be spread by files or small animals. I think maybe the poor bunny that she "got" 2 week ago may gave given it to her. :(

Sierra thanks you all for the well wishes!:D
I had Buddy tested on Friday and so far he doesn't have it, but it takes 13 days to show it's ugly head. :( So I'll have to get him tested a few times to make sure he doen't have it for sure.
Thank you all again! :D
Sierra's already back to acting like her spunky little self!!

[petslover]

Thats good that Buddy doesn't have it yet. I really hope he doesn't even get it. I am also glad to hear that Sierra is back to her spunky self!
