Article Synopsis
- This study examined the effects of two intravenous doses of propofol (5 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg) on red-eared sliders, measuring various reflexes and recovery times.
- Six turtles received both doses after a week of washout, with G1 (5 mg/kg) showing inadequate muscle relaxation and no intubation capability, while G2 (10 mg/kg) allowed intubation in five of six turtles.
- Significant differences were found between the two doses, particularly in muscle relaxation, handling ease, and intubation success, suggesting that a higher propofol dose is necessary for effective anesthesia in these turtles.
Background: One of the contributing factors to ocular surface health is a stable precorneal tear film. Considering the increasing interest in rabbits as pets and the limited literature available on domestic rabbit tearing, the aim of this study was to establish normative data for examination of the tear film in domestic rabbits.
Results: The study included 75 client-owned domestic Holland Lop rabbits (150 eyes).
Objective: To report clinical, surgical, and pathological findings in client-owned rabbits with histologically confirmed appendicitis.
Animals: 19 rabbits.
Procedures: Medical records for client-owned rabbits that had a histologic diagnosis of appendicitis were reviewed.
A 34-day-old, male, white-bellied caique (Pionites leucogaster) was presented for a complaint of bilateral buphthalmos. Clinical examination was unremarkable apart from the ophthalmic findings. The ophthalmologic examination was negative for direct, consensual, and dazzle reflexes in both eyes.

Three pet rabbits presented within 24 hours of parturition with a red mass protruding from the vagina, which was diagnosed as uterine prolapse. In the first case, an attempt to reduce the prolapse by manual compression was ineffective.
