URI- Not the School

So Roxie has been a little down lately, mom thought maybe its just old age, but she has been having a lot of red tears lately, and she's been hanging her head off of things. She might have to go to the vet soon (and if she goes, we alllll go. Mom thinks its great that Banfield in Warwick has such cheap rates, but I sure don't). But for now we're all going to keep our eye on her, and mom brought home some Marshall's Rabbit Rx for upper respiratory treatment in small animals. Its kinda like mom's Vicks Vapor rub. I think it smells awesome, although Roxie says its not as nice when its right under your nose. She doesn't like it when mom puts it on her. But it does help with her snorting. She's snorted ever since she was born, mom calls her a little piggy, and the vet said that there's nothing we can do about it.
Poor Roxie's also getting triple anti-biotoc ointment (a.k.a. neosporin) put on her scabs a few times a day. We think these are part of the URI- upper respiratory infection- too.
