  • Wow, I’m glad you got some answers! Poor Nellie, I’m sure the injury has just finally caught up with her. :/

    Thanks for your reply! So incase anyone is wondering my exotics told me they are fine to give together but work better when spread out. Also things with Nellie have changed quite significantly since this post! She finally got a referral to a full exotics specialist hospital and the doctor was amazing! She had yet…

    Update: So I tried ordering Small Pet Select and it never came. Out of desperation, I picked up a bag of Oxbow at the store. This one didn’t have alfalfa in it! But… someone decided he didn’t like it. Of course… Out of desperation again, I ordered a box of Rabbit Hole. And no alfalfa…

    Does your bunny ever flop? Sometimes lazy bunnies (or less active buns) prefer the flop to show happiness versus a binky since it seems to take less effort haha! One of our buns (who we suspect may be older in age, he was adopted from a rough background so his age is unknown) never really…
  • Yes, I would like to know as well. Some bunnies are just… lazy. I had a bunny that never binkied or did zoomies. Never. He slept a lot. My current bunny runs around like a maniac all the time.
  • In what ways does he act generally unhealthy? How is his weight, appetite, fur quality (a poorly bun often looks dishevelled, the fur has no sheen to it) pooping and peeing habits? Has anything in his appearance or behavior changed? Not all buns do much. Some are quite content just existing in the same room…

    I adopted a Rex rabbit several years back, which is the third rabbit I’ve ever adopted. I believe he was about six months old when I adopted him, which makes him just about four years old now. He has a large living area, plenty of food (hay, pellets, and greens), a soft bed, a clean…
  • It isn’t unheard of to give them together. They each work in a different part of the gut, so the theory is they are safe to give together. I don’t know about actual dosage though.
  • Cisapride and metacloprimide together - GlennTheLionhead 03/23/2026 04:35 PM
    Hey Is it common practice to dose a bun recovering from gas with metacloprimide and cisapride + Loxicom in one medication sitting? Nellie has had a bad bout of gas the last week that we were initially successfully treating with cisapride and Loxicom (already perscribed for arthritis) When I was tapering her off after 3…

    Thank you for your input! Yes, I think buns are often misunderstood and the bond shared between them and their human. I also agree that some people tend to like to “one up” others, whether that be in grief or other areas of life.
  • Reply To: Grief over rabbits vs dogs - prince dorian the bun 03/20/2026 05:23 AM
    I had a cat that lived 19 years, I do think the time made an impact.  But mostly because the memories and bond you form in that time. Her death was also very traumatic and that didn’t help. Not anything to do with the species. I absolutely love my two buns and would also be…

    lovenova123 – I sent you a message a few days ago. Didn’t know if you saw it.
  • I had a bunny that had hindquarters instability later in life after an injury. He declined rapidly after that point but I was looking into getting him a wheelchair. They make bunny wheelchairs online if you have the measurements. This might improve his quality of life. Just a thought.
  • Reply To: Grief over rabbits vs dogs - GlennTheLionhead 03/10/2026 02:41 AM
    I also agree, it’s not a competition. I think some people just misunderstand bunnies the bond bunnies and humans can have, probably due to them being viewed as ‘lesser’ like other people have said. I’ve had people suggest my bunnies are stupid etc (which here we know is very false!) but then after meeting and…
  • A very large litter tray might help. We use the bottom of one of them pet store rabbit cages repurposed as a big hay station and they really seem to enjoy all the space, perhaps something like that could help. I couldn’t upload a photo here but there is a pic of them in their…
  • Reply To: Oxbow pellets - BrunosMama 03/08/2026 05:18 PM
    Thanks for the links! I’m sure the buns would *love* the alfalfa, but we would have to get them all little scooters to roll their fat little selves around on lol. I’ll keep that in mind for the Mazuri brand. 🙂
  • Reply To: Oxbow pellets - LBJ10 03/08/2026 01:08 AM
    You would have to look at the analysis and decide if it’s close enough to what the recommendations are. It is true that a lot of the pellets at farm stores are going to be formulated for meat or show rabbits and, therefore, have more calories, etc. This is a pretty comprehensive list of pellet…
  • Oxbow pellets - BrunosMama 03/07/2026 08:18 PM
    Hey! We have been having a ton of issues finding the 25lb bag of Oxbow pellets. With four buns, its generally the most cost efficient. Amazon used to carry it for around $35ish, but they seem to have stopped. So, I’ve been trying Chewy and Petco, but they either don’t list it/sell it or send…

    Hey!! Good to see you! Wow, 6 bonded buns! That’s awesome. Definitely worthy of some bragging rights. 😉 Love all the bunny pics. They look so sweet and content. We have four buns, in 2 pairs…..now I’m having ideas of one big quartet! Lol! 😀
