You could try using this recycled denim moving blanket. My bunny digs, bites, and pulls at it but hasn’t managed to make a hole yet (we’ve had it over two months). Granted, he isn’t constantly after it, mostly when he feels like it or our cat’s on it. It’s not as soft as fleece but more soft and padded than carpet. If it’s too big you can probabl…[Read more]

I agree, warm ears are better than cold ears. It means her temperature probably isn’t low. If you have leftover critical care, it would be good to try feeding her to keep things moving. If she pooped recently, then that is good. It means things are moving… and hopefully the gas is too.

Fish rock shapes over pellet, got it! So I suppose that would mean the marineland would be the better choice, even with it’s higher zeolite content to carbon.

I did have a filter on my kitchen faucet, but I sadly cannot afford to replace the filters carts for it. They seem to be just as expensive as the device itself, plus, I was hoping the…[Read more]

Personally, the more rock shaped carbon seems to be a bit better than the pellet type.

Natural zeolite is safe, heck, the fish live and breathe it! 🙂

We just use Britta filtered water, better than our straight water.

I do think your buns will be fine, this is a very short time.

If you got the twigs in a monthly box  my guess is apple or willow. They  wouldnt be from poisonous trees. Not all buns are interested in twigs though.

I believe I have twigs that came with one of the monthly boxes, I’ll double check to see which sort it is but both haven’t shown much interest in chewing in them. They also have a wide variety of toys that they tend to ignore if it isn’t a favorite, which is a little surprising from my youngest who usually is the one for toys. My oldest is more…[Read more]

This is more of a general feeling. I’m ignored regardless of the question/topic, it’s been constant on every platform, including this by the past 2 or so hours. I don’t know, it might’ve just been spurred how it’s an endless cycle lately. But thank you.

Right now I have a variety of feeds that include different herbs and flowers, specifically looking for those that are high in fibre and don’t mind if it’s used as a daily feed contrary to those that recommend being it fed in small quantities. I have found a few I might use either for daily feed or as an addition to their salads. While it might be…[Read more]

Fresh twigs, as Wick suggests, would be very good. There are lots of trees that are bunny safe, just make sure they’re not treated with pesticides. Apple twigs and willow are as a rule the most appreciated by buns, but twigs from birch or hazel or linden and many other trees might also be interesting. Take off most of the leaves (except from…[Read more]

I’m sorry that you’re going through this and I hope all is well currently. I am not familiar with the background context, so I apologize if there are crucial details I’m overlooking.

I’m sorry that you have felt ignored on other platforms — to my knowledge, this is the first time you have posted on Binkybunny forums. For this topic specifically, it is not one people can answer as easily. It is not unusual for more ‘difficult’ questions to not get answered immediately. Not everyone is equipped to answer less commonly asked…[Read more]

I’m sorry noone has replied to your post.

What type of high fiber feed do you have?

If I were to choose between extra pellets and alfalfa, I’d choose the alfalfa hay, and reduce the amount of pellets. (Alfalfa is high in protein and energy and calcium, which is why you should cut back on the pellets). Alfalfa has good long fiber.

If you can get…[Read more]

That’s good!..because as I said, I have hard water 🙁 and it tastes gross. The animals seem to be doing okay with it, I don’t know if they care either way about the taste.

The other thing I’ve been indecisive about, is if I should get the marineland brand, which has MORE zeolite to carbon mix, or if I should spend the money on the imagitarium…[Read more]

Her ears are back to being hot. When she was sick 3 weeks ago they were constantly cold

I’m just scared been prolly guessing 6-8 hours no eating. I’m worried I don’t want to go through this again 🙁

The hospital last time sent me home with critical care. It’s been in the freezer like I was told to do. Should I give her some?

I gave her gas drops again now and going to bed. Will set an alarm and check on her in a few hours. Her ears are not super hot but I know buns sometimes regulate there temperature where there ears are not hot. I’m jus…[Read more]

I wouldn’t panic just yet. Keep doing the tummy rubs and gas drops. If she’s pooping, then that’s a good sign.

There is natural zeolite and synthetic zeolite. Both are used for filtration and water softening. The type you linked to is natural. In general, zeolite is said to be non-toxic. I know there have been studies where it was actually fed to mice in powder form and they saw no ill effects. I don’t think using it in a water filter will hurt…[Read more]
