  • I believe you can buy directly from Small Pet Select and Rabbit Hole Hay. You can buy large boxes (40lb+) from them.
  • Hi Brunosmama! Haven’t seen you in awhile! Sorry your post wasn’t approved right away. We were having some issues. Anyway, congrats on the new boy! Hmm… well, sometimes it is pretty obvious that a bunny has been neutered and sometimes it isn’t. For example, if they had some good sized testicles then there would be…
  • Yall’s experience on buying hay in bulk online? - BlackSunlight 11/23/2024 12:52 AM
    Hey y’all, I want to distance myself from pet stores because I really am sickened by the things that happen behind the scenes in pet stores… concerning the way the animals in the pet stores get there. (Breeding mills) Really, I only buy hay from pet stores. I like to buy toys in bulk from…
  • How to tell if rescue bun is neutered - BrunosMama 11/23/2024 12:51 AM
    Hello all! We’ve recently adopted a handsome Flemmie boy from a nearby shelter. At the time of adoption, they said their vet had confirmed he had been neutered prior to being surrendered to the shelter by the owner. We have adopted from this shelter before and I know that they are very diligent in making…

    No no, in the half bath/hallway, they are all great! The sleep on their bed together, eat together, have nose to nose secret meetings, etc. Fully bonded in that space, if there is such a thing. They have been around the clock consecutively since 11/1 with another two weeks prior, and more time prior but…

    Have you tried any 1-on-1 time? It sounds like your pair has a really strong bond and they are happy to shut the new bunny out.

    They have been in neutral 2×4, and then expanded to 4×4, for over a week around the clock. This not an open 4×4 but a 2×4 and then a doorway out to another 2×4. What I’ve learned actually, is this has little to do with neutral vs non-neutral; it just happened that way because my…

    There are wholesalers that sell parts for toy-making on Etsy, those are the only wholesalers I know about though! I can send you the name of the shop if you’d like? They make toys as well, if I’m thinking of the right Etsy shop.

    I think Bam might be on to something. WBCs are a little high. I also notice creatinine is a little high. This is one measure of kidney function. I would suggest exploring this further. Yes, GI stasis can cause elevated numbers on blood tests. But the gas and stasis episodes could also be a secondary…

    As it says in the vet statement, it could perhaps be about pain from the kidney/urinary tract. Pain anywhere in the body of a rabbit can become apparent as GI trouble. It doesnt take a lot, gas will form if the gut slows, the bun gets gas pain and will often lose its appetite when…

    Hi, everyone! I’m a shy person online, so I struggle to reply to comments, but your feedback has been so incredibly valuable to Leila and I in the past. I’m hoping one of you may have some advice for me again! Leila (code name The Goose) recently turned 4-and-a-half. She’s an English Spot with no…
  • This is pretty normal. The risk is much lower in young rabbits, especially males being neutered. However, if you are worried, then I’m sure you can request it.
  • Where I am, bloodwork before a neuter is not done routinely on young healthy male buns. You could probably request bloodwork if you’re very worried.
  • My rabbit is 9 months old and the vet I was planning on getting him neutered at said that they don’t do bloodwork before neuters, is this normal? Every time any of my pets have gone under anesthesia they’ve gotten blood work done to make sure everything looks good before putting them under. I’m super…

    Sometimes they are just out of it for the entire day. I’m glad she is doing better now.

    Wonderful news! Thanks for the update!

    Her ears were nice and warm last night. She didn’t eat anything but she was so tired so I just let her sleep it off on my bed. I left some critical care next to her water and it was gone this morning so she ate it sometime last night. She is definitely still sleepy…
  • Reply To: My Baby Needs Teeth Treatment - Bam 11/07/2024 12:19 PM
    How is she doing now? For some buns it can take more than a day to return to normal. The most important things are that she keeps warm and eats something. Anesthesia lowers the body temp and a low body temp is dangerous. You can warm her up in a very safe way by sitting…
  • Reply To: My Baby Needs Teeth Treatment - BakingBunny 11/07/2024 02:48 AM
    She’s soooo tired. Barely reactive. Her ears still move and all that but I’ve never seen her this tired. Is that normal? I know she’s gonna be in pain and the vet sent me home with some pain meds. How long does it usually take them to get back to normal?
  • Reply To: My Baby Needs Teeth Treatment - LBJ10 11/06/2024 11:36 PM
    I’m glad to hear she is done and waking up! Hopefully she will be good for a while. Some bunnies just need it done once and then they are back on track. Others have recurring issues. I agree with Bam that the best way to keep the teeth worn down is to make sure your…
