Alternative Medicine for Pets/virastem

Question
I live in Corpus Christi, TX  and have a wonderful bunny by the name of Blossom that I rescued from a shelter that was not prepared to house her much less knew how to care or knows anything about bunnies.  I have spayed her and now has what I believe is called the snuffles.  Does anyone know where and how I can get this "virastem" and does it really work?

Answer
Hi Mary,
I have not heard of Virastem before as I live in Australia.  But when I searched for it online it appears that the company that made it has closed down.  Unless you found someone with stock still available I do not think you will find it.  From my understanding it is an all-natural anti viral, anti bacterial product, but I could not find out the exact ingredients anywhere.
You can try using Colloidal Silver (1/4 teaspoon, three times per day for a week, then twice a day for a week, then once a day for 2 weeks and see how she feels).  This is an all-natural anti viral, anti bacterial product that is tasteless and can easily be put on top of her food before serving, or given directly into her mouth.
As I do not know anything really about rabbit care, you may want to look at this website for further information on natural rabbit care:

I hope this helps,
Kind regards,
Silva.
