If he has his jewels, then you’re technically good to go. Boys can be neutered as soon as their testicles drop. If he’s super tiny, the vet may want to wait until he is a little bigger. But that really depends on the vet and how confident they are neutering a rabbit.

Personally, I love to go for car rides when things regress in bonding. I also like to lay both buns between my legs and kind of squeeze them together while I pet them. If one tries to leave, just keep your hand on top of them. Table bonding, or laying both bunnies on a table while petting them has similar results. Banana on the forehead to…[Read more]

DanaNM’s advice is excellent and I can’t add much to it, but I do hear your overwhelm.  It’s true that bunny vet bills can be expensive and I’d hate for you and Teddy to be in a stressful situation where you fear you can’t afford whatever it is that he needs done (if the good advice Dana gave doesn’t feel like it would cover it in your…[Read more]

Welcome to BB! This thread is from 2018. I don’t think we have heard from this member since, so we don’t know what the outcome was. If you have questions about bonding, you are welcome to start your own thread. I’m going to lock this thread so as to not cause confusion. We try to discourage people from reviving old threads.

I’m following this because I’m in a similar situation. My bunny lost her eye recently and I’d like to bond her.

Yes, sometimes if you use your fingers to pick at the mats, they just think you’re grooming their face (like another rabbit would).

Sadly I don’t have any painkillers. He’s been pooping normally, he would still get up to eat hay but then he just lays. I’m a little bit unsure about giving him more pellets (even though I would really like to), but the vet strictly said just 1 spoon, not more, because of live regeneration.

Until today he was at least eating lettuce, too, but…[Read more]

I would give a little more pellets – not as much as before, but it’s best to wean a rabbit slowly. They could starve if the’re suddenly put on nearly all hay. Do you have a painkiller for him? If he is grinding his teeth he is in pain.

I’m sorry Maui has an ear infection! You have to give the medicines even if it’s stressful for him.  He will forgive you once this thing is over. Restraining him on the floor is difficult too, but at least he can’t jump off from a height. Did you get pain medicine (meloxicam, sold under many brand names)as well as ear drops? Ear infections can be…[Read more]

<p style=”text-align: left;”>Hello lovely</p>
It’s not silly to still have heartache and loss they are wonderful little things and fulfill so many of our needs so it’s only human to still feel such loss months later. I love my rabbit as deeply as I ever have to a human. It’s no different.

I hope talking to others and keeping busy is comforting…[Read more]

I think I know deep deep down that it was the right thing to do. It doesn’t make  easier though. I miss him so much, I am lonely and it just feels like something is missing. I have a great partner but there’s just something you get from a pet that you can’t get from a human. I’m terrified of getting another rabbit now but I just feel empty and…[Read more]
