Pet died after vet

    My rabbits foot had been sore for a week or two, she could walk on it but it was a bit hard for her, some days she could walk on it no bother and other days she'd just lay around all day and not really move.... So I took her to the vet, they gave her a shot of antibiotics, an inflammatory and another shot from his assistant I'm not sure what it was but after the vet realised he said to her that's too much, called him up on it straight away but he said she'll be alright. She came home with a new lease of life we hadn't seen since she hurt her foot... Unfortunately the next morning she was in a seizure like state with the neck curling back and the uncontrolled kicks and died that day.... Just wanna know if it's possible for the vets to overdose rabbits, because it didn't seem like a life threatening problem with her foot

    It could have been either but Rabbits can die very easily from stress too. You would have needed a PM done to determine cause of death.
