Activity

Regarding vaccinations, in Europe we now have a triple vaccine that protects against myxomatosis and RVHD1 and 2. It’s called Nobivac Plus. I think that’s what is used in the UK now. I’ve used it twice for my current bun and once before for a bun who is no longer with us. None of them showed any signs of sideeffects.

I would trust a low cost vet,…[Read more]

I think you’re right jersey, because now I remember the whole reason I switched to the sheepette was because he was peeing on the fleece all the time!

In general I’m noticing him standing more easily, which is great. We will definitely be finishing the full course of treatment in any case!

Just an update on vets4pets its 130 pounds to neuter a rabbit which doesn’t include the consultation fee so all together its close to 200 pounds.

Thank you. He seems to be running fine. The only problem is he won’t let me pick him up to check his nail

any suggestions on how I should pick him up without him freaking out and scratching me? Last time I tried to pick him up he scratched me pretty good.

@Bam, yes I’ve always had to be careful that Apollo doesn’t gain too much weight, and yet all this time I’ve been fighting to put weight on Luna. I’m excited to weigh her again once it’s been a week 🙂

Well after my angry rant it turns out that there is no medication to give Jasiri. 🙂 She does have problems, she has salmonella (possibly either…[Read more]

I’d just keep an eye. Check how he moves. Does he seem to avoid moving around? Will he come for a pellet if you offer one? Does he put weight on the foot with the hurt nail?

Rabbits do hurt their nails sometimes. It can bleed a little. It’s as a rule not a big problem, sometimes the nail grows out crooked though. A nail like that can sometimes…[Read more]

How sweet!   I think I recognise that spot. One of my fave pics of Vilde is him looking at this same view. 🥰

@Tybalt, my past lops both eventually had some build up in their ears. I was afraid it was abscess but I was able to massage the base and get stuff out some. The vet also injected an antibiotic direct into any lumps and this helped get…[Read more]

Fantastic!

Oh, I know that scenario well, not knowing what exactly to credit for positive change. 😄

Surely it is better pee control. Because wouldn’t the fleece & pee pads be just as tempting to pee on if it were by choice?

I hope you continue to see improvements. I’m glad he’s coped well on the panacur.

Just wanted to give a quick update to say I’m back from my trip and Bun Jovi is doing well! I think there has been a slight improvement in his mobility, and he is peeing less outside of his box. I did swap the sheepette for fleece and disposable pee pads because it was too hard to wash the sheepette frequently enough (it will still be in the…[Read more]

Upon doing lots of research I can bond two un-spayed females together and I have put the two females together and there have been no issues. I am confident I can leave them alone together tonight. Its a lot easier and less stressful for the rabbits being all alone and as my two females were bonded before its been very easy to re-bond them.

I did…[Read more]

I’m absolutely exhausted today. I had a lot to do today and I only managed to get a tiny bit done on the bunny side of things. I’m hoping to get the male bunny booked in by the end of the week for a neuter then the spaying of the females to follow right after..

With Roo and Dohwa, we have found that ‘No’ and chew toys work not much either. We have placed second-hand carpets that cover up entirely the original cream carpet of our living room : ). If you are in the UK, I recommend looking for free or very cheap second hand carpets on Freecycle, Gumtree, or on a neighbourhood forum. Then, cut them up to fit…[Read more]

Azerane, I’m sorry about Jasiri 🙁 I hope it’s nothing really bad. It’s weird you have to wait so long for the test results, hopefully that means it isnt really bad!

Great Luna-news though! It feels so weirdto have a bun that’s a hard keeper, the problem tends to be the exact opposite with buns. I was always so happy when Vilde hadn’t dropped…[Read more]
