Nebulising What Box To Use?

[piggieminder]

Bracken has a slight upper respitatory crackle, the vet wants me to nebulise him with F10. I've searched the threads and got myself confused by all the info. The vet said use the pet carrier and put a towel over it, but wont that just make the towel damp and soak up the steam? If I use a plastic box I assume it would need some air holes?

I just use a plastic storage box and made air holes. I found some video's on YouTube @Katiedid she pointed me in that direction.

As above. Or I have personally used a plastic carrier, just covered over with a heavy towel and it works well. Up to you whatever you want to do.

I also bought a plastic storage box with a clip-down lid, and made some small air holes in the sides. The hardest part was making a bigger hole to fit the spout of the nebuliser. The vet nurse who showed me how a nebuliser works suggested I could use a bin bag, closed at the neck, if I wanted an alternative.

Thanks all. He's currently in a carrier with a towel over as that's all I've got for now. I was really tired last night and not thinking very straight. I'd not slept the night before for worrying about him. I might try the bin bag later, he'squite happy munching some grass in the carrier at the moment.

I used a pet carrier wrapped in clingfilm. It worked well for us.

I just use my smallest pet carrier and place a heavy bath towel over it to cover all the holes.
