        Hi, I just recently got two bunny brothers. I’m trying my best to make sure they stay  healthy but I was wondering if anyone has a picture of a hunched bunny in pain?? I searched up on google but it gave me a lot of different pictures of bunnies some not even sitting so I was hoping that maybe someone on here had a picture. Please help, I really want to make sure they are healthy and i’m trying my best to study them but it would really help to know what it looked like when they sit in the hunched position! Thank you.

          Search up “hunched bunny in pain”, the rabbit lady has a good photo. It can sometimes be mistaken for loafing so if your rabbit has other signs such as squinting it’s eyes, grinding it’s teeth, not wanting to move, I would call up a rabbit savvy vet to figure out what’s going on. Has he been eating and pooping fine?

            If you aren’t sure and it’s a new bun, one way to check is to offer a handful of hay first. if the bun takes a piece, they are feeling fine. If they snub the hay, you can try a favorite green. If they turn that down, you can try a treat. If they turn down any of the food, they are not feeling well, and if they even turn down a treat you know they are in more serious pain.
