Can someone give me the dosage per gram for Baytril. I'm pretty sure my winter over baby has a bladder infection. All I have on hand is 20mg Baytril.
Thanks

20mg tablet, liquid...? What is the weight and age of your baby?
Lookin for the answer to this... Pill not liquid in my friends case....
probably a UTI, found baby with very swollen penis, scabby end, was very nasty with drainage... slowly getting better with ointment. I don't know his weight... recently opened his eyes... I will upload a pic.
That scab needs to come off NOW.
He will back up and they can become systemically ill from retained toxins.
This is NOT good.
Tell her to soak in warm water and GENTLY keep picking
at the scab.
Keep repeating. If he cries out, keep soaking and trying to get
that scab OFF.
Does he have siblings with him that are sucking him, or is
this self sucking?
THIS SCAB NEEDS TO COME OFF NOW.
Go gently and have patience, we don't want to hurt this little
one anymore than he has to be hurting now.

Thank you Nancy! I have forwarded your message. She found this one on the ground 4 days ago.. I think... I will ask, just new we need to get help for this little guy asap. Shades is girl so I'm not very familiar with boy squirrels. Should she apply triple antibiotic?
Ok, My friend Christina doesn't think this a scab. The baby wasn't able to pass urine the first day except a dribble or two, but she also thinks he was dehydrated. But now he is peeing, but the color doesnt look good. He is taking formula, this is not her first rescue, she has raised 4 other squirrels and 2 opossums. The baby is also bleeding from the nose from the fall, but not excessively. She is concerned that picking at it might make it worse. She is soaking the tip. I was wondering if mild home made saline solution would help? I was thinking about time Years ago when i got my belly button pierced and was told to use warm saline in a shot glass and hold it against the piercing. This really helped me so.... anyway. Heres the pic.
Update!!! She got the scab to soften off! It came loose! And he peed.. It's not all the way off but she's going to try again when he falls back asleep.

I'm SO glad to hear this. I definitely thought that looked like a scab.
