HT replied to the topic No hay for 24 hours in the forum DIET & CARE 3 years, 9 months ago
Your bunny should be fine without hay for a day. This is not the best situation but she should be fine if it is only one day. Rabbit pellets have some hay in them so I definitely recommend feeding her some pellets. Do you have a pet store near you? You may not need to uber to a pet store if you are comfortable with deliveries. I know that doordash…[Read more]

HT replied to the topic How can I tell if he's losing his hearing? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 3 years, 9 months ago
I agree with LBJ10. I previously had a holland lop who was either deaf or had trouble hearing. I would try making noise when he is not looking at you and seeing if he turns and responds to it. If he knows his name I would also recommend calling his name when you are around him to see if he responds. One thing to look out for as well when you are…[Read more]

HT replied to the topic A girl at school killed her rabbit and wants another one. What do I do? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 3 years, 9 months ago
This is very frustrating. I agree with everyone who has replied so far. Definitely remind her how much work a rabbit is. I would also suggest reminding her that rabbits also have feelings and that neglecting a rabbit can make them depressed. I would hope that this girl would feel some sympathy and guilt knowing that neglecting her previous rabbit…[Read more]

CuddlyCal started the topic No hay for 24 hours in the forum DIET & CARE 3 years, 9 months ago
Hello, I recently got a bunny and even though I ordered more hay as soon as I got her, she already finished half a bag of hay the previous owner have given me. As amazon will complete the delivery Thursday, I will have to feed her pellets, cabbage, and treats for one whole day.
I know this is not the best situation to begin with, but will my…[Read more]

Thank you so much for your detailed and useful advice!!!
If you don’t mind, may I ask for a 4 years old rabbit, what test(s) is(are) needed before the procedure?

No essential oils are safe for rabbits. Can you find where the ants are coming in? The simplest solution would be exclusion. Seal up the hole or crack they are crawling through.

Dana gave good advice. Talk to the vet and ask questions. Make sure they have experience. Rabbits have different requirements than a cat or dog.

Poor thing. An issue deeper inside was my first thought when I saw the picture. Yes, for abscesses, it isn’t unusual to prescribe an injection and an oral antibiotic at the same time.

LBJ10 replied to the topic How can I tell if he's losing his hearing? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 3 years, 9 months ago
What kind of bunny is he? Deafness is relatively common in Holland lops. They can be born deaf or hard of hearing.
You could try some experiments to see if he responds to sounds. Try something unusual, like a party horn to see if he perks up the first time he hears it. Or you can try clapping your hands when his back is turned to you. These are…[Read more]

I would like to know if my bunny might be losing his hearing. I shake their hay and treat bag but he doesn’t respond. He doesn’t respond to a lot of loud noises however he’s always been like that. Except for the times I threw up earlier this year due to a stomach bug. Those noises really scared him. But now he doesn’t seem to respond to much. My…[Read more]

Philippe.P replied to the topic Bonding with my rabbit in the forum BEHAVIOR 3 years, 9 months ago
Also, Théo lives in the livingroom which I’m not verry often. Maybe I could move him to my room but he might climb on the bed or run back to the living room everytime he can. Litter traing has also been very hard with him. Lots of poop on the floor, he doesn’t eat all his cecotrope, not an easy bunny at all ….
I’ve had to pick him up a lot at…[Read more]

Ok thank you for the recommendations.
An update on his vet appt:
The vet flushed the mucus out with saline solution and some came out of his nose. Apparently, he has a abscessed tear duct, the cause unknown but the vet says it could be dental issues. He was prescribed an antiobitoic eye drop (2x a day), Meloxicam for pain (2x), penicillin, and…[Read more]
