I dont think thete’s anything you can do at home until you’ve seen a vet, unless she stops eating or pooping or shows other signs of acute illness.

(I asked if she was spayed because pyometra and other disorders of the reproductive tract can manifest as drinking and peeing excessively- but since she’s spayed, that can of course be ruled out 👍)

Yeah, that’s what I was planning on doing. Is there anything else I can do in the mean time? I feel like I’ve already left this going for too long.

And yes, she is spayed

Thank you for the response!

Indeed, I do not think astroturf is a good idea. It’s likeness to grass aside (though a rabbit wouldn’t likely be fooled because of its smell), it is similar to carpet and I think would be a big chewing/eating hazard, due to astroturf’s material.

It’s hard to say, but you would likely notice within 24hrs if something goes wrong. Is he doing all right now?

Last spring I was really prepping my veggie garden for hard times to come. Then we had the coldest July in 150 years or so, so most of my vegs refused to grow. I had 40 zucchini plants, got 5 zucchini, they were hard as wood because of really slow growth. 🤣

We’ve eaten all the chocolate in our covid box. In the beginning we dutifully replaced it,…[Read more]

I use Vetbeds and cut them to size. I dont know if fake grass might encourage the bun to try and graze.

Sea grass mats are another alternative which is good because they’re perfectly safe to nibble on.

I got my first rabbit when I joined a 4H Thumpers (rabbit) club in my state. They had mini jumps for rabbits and even had rabbit jumping competitions during county fairs. If you live in the US maybe you could try contacting a branch to see if they know where to get some.

The main thing you need to pay attention to when you are buying a jump is…[Read more]

You should call the vet when they open on Monday and make an appointment. Drinking and peeing a lot more than normal is a sign that something isnt right, but exactly what it’s all about, you need a good vet to determine. It is important that you find out what’s wrong so she can start treatment as soon as possible.

Is your rabbit spayed?

I’ve got basically an entire greens garden growing for my boys right now. When everything went down the first time the stores were out of everything for months. If it is winter I bought a few grow tents to keep everything growing indoors. I have lots and lots of dried herbs and things like bananas, strawberries, etc. I stocked up on hay (I…[Read more]

Wait until you see their enclosure when I’m done with it. Y’all have created a monster with these potato names. I have a plaque. A fried designing bunny safe POTATO decor. I just bought the boys potato-shaped toys. It’s going down LOL.

This was the easiest bond of my life. They will still have separate food bowls because Tater is a drama baby…[Read more]

Thanks Wick – I think you are right and I’m probably overthinking a bit.  Thanks for your input! 🙂

They sell some items on Amazon. I’ve see rabbit-sized jumps, seesaws, etc.

I think you can… but you may need to wait until she is finished. I agree with Dana, you may have better luck on a form like RabbitsOnline simply because there are probably not a lot of people here experienced with this topic.
