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 poirly bun often looks dishevelled, the fur has no sheen to it) pooping and peeing habits? Has anything in his apoearance or behavior changed?
Not all buns do much. Some are quite content just existing in the same room as their human. Does he hide all the…[Read more]

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 litter box, lots of toys and hidey places, and plenty of social…[Read more]

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.

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 days to one daily dose we…[Read more]

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.

I had a cat that lived 19 years, I do think the time made an impact.ย 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 devastated if I lost either one of them. I will have spent 6 years with…[Read more]

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.

GlennTheLionhead replied to the topic Grief over rabbits vs dogs in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 3 weeks ago
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 spending time with them they change…[Read more]

GlennTheLionhead replied to the topic Help! My female won't stop territorial peeing/pooping in the forum BEHAVIOR 3 weeks ago
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 hay station tray on my profile if you want to see the size. Have you…[Read more]

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. ๐

LBJ10 replied to the topic Oxbow pellets in the forum DIET & CARE 3 weeks, 2 days ago
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 brands and their nutritional analyses:…[Read more]

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 dog food (looking at you, Petco.

Wow, 6 bonded buns! That’s awesome. Definitely worthy of some bragging rights. ๐
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! ๐

Hi FluffyBunny! So nice to see you! And what adorable bunnies you have! So cute!
Yes, the forum has slowed considerably. I imagine many people have turned to places like Reddit out of convenience, if nothing else. You are still welcome to post questions here though. We are still around. ๐
