Baby food that has non-veg components (meat, fish, chicken etc) wouldn’t be suitable, but that’s obvious. The fruit ones tend to not have added sugar, but they’re as a rule sweet bc of banana or mango or pear, since kids of course like sweet taste. I’ve only given “baby smoothie” to rabbits, in tiny amounts mixed with meds.

Meloxicam (loxicom and…[Read more]

That’s great, I didn’t realise buns could eat baby food, are there certain types that wouldn’t be suitable? I don’t have children so I’ve never actually bought baby food before.

And yes, thank you for the suggestion about the litter tray, we do have an easy access tray, we use an old cage bottom and have saw’ed off one of the narrow ends to…[Read more]

My vet will just prescribe it over the phone. No need for a visit. You can call your vet to ask. Just say your cat had fleas and you want to treat your bunny as a preventative. And yes, it’s typically the kitten formula. You just need to make sure you’re using the correct amount.

If you can’t get Revolution, then you could try Advantage (as Bam…[Read more]

Yes. I think the kitten one is what’s used for rabbits, mainly because of body weight. You want a dosage that’s as close to your bun’s weight as possible.

You will need to do at least one repeat treatment to get the fleas that are eggs now but will hatch later. Repeat treatment should be done about 8 days after the initial treatment (4 weeks in…[Read more]

The cat and dog one is safe for my rabbit?

Yes, Revolution (selamectin) is prescription only in most countries except Austrsl7a. Sometimes your vet might let you purchase it from their clinic without a appointment.

For fleas you can use Advantage. It has imidaclopride. In early stages of an infestation you might not see any fleas or eggs on the rabbit.

(PSA: Never use any compound…[Read more]

I tried getting the revolution and I have to get it prescribed to me. If I want to purchase it :/

It is normal behavior, because rabbits havent been bred to not bite humans the way dogs have. If a dog bites a human and draws blood it’s unacceptable and it’s reasonable to think there’s something wrong with the dog, healthwise or mentally.

Rabbits can bite and still be normal. It’s inconvenient though, of course, so try not to “reward” the…[Read more]

thanks everyone. I brought him to the vet yesterday and they prescribed penicillin injections. Hopefully he will get better soon!

Awww that’s great! Good luck!

I think you should definitely wait at least another 2-3 weeks before doing more sessions. Willow’s hormones will take a while to settle, which can make things more volatile. Her scent will continue to change and sometimes in females it can take 4-6 weeks for their hormones to fully settle down. That time will also give more pre-bonding time. It’s…[Read more]

I’m so sorry to hear that, you did everything you could for her. 🙁
