It’s not normal, but the Bactrim needs at least 72 hours to make a difference. So its much too soon to say. You should treat with Bactrim for at least 2 weeks, but longer time might be needed.

My bun who had a lung infection got both Bactrim and terbutalin (pills for babies that I dissolved in water) to help him breathe. (Terbutalin is a…[Read more]

I noticed something when Cookie lay on my chest. I heard the sound of breathing because my ear was too close to his nose and I didn’t like it. When I pressed my ear to Cookie’s nose, I heard Cookie’s breath sound like a little whistle. Is this normal, do rabbits normally make noises when they breathe, or is it because of their illness? Is cookie’s…[Read more]

It’s normal for a bun to like scratching pillows and have little interest in toys. Edible toys might be an option, such as toys made of willow. Apple twigs are also often popular with buns.

No I am in my room alone,

And as for the activities I can’t seem to find anything else he likes to do, he only likes to scratch pillows, do you think this is normal? And do u have any suggestions as to what toys he might be interested in cause I just want to make sure he is happy.

Since bonding seems unlikely due to time, I would say you want to maximize your rabbits space and engagement opportunities in the dorm (but don’t just clog his pen with random toys as that cuts down on overall room!)

This can be hiding stuff so he finds them throughout the day, setting up stuff so he needs to work for the food, etc.. snuffle mats…[Read more]

And yes he is neutered, I forgot to put that in my last reply

Ya sorry I probably meant 2 months. I would be leaving him in the dorm while I go to classes but many of my first term classes are online all except one. As for bonding him. I have tried to bond him with two rabbits from a shelter with help from their people who are have a lot of experience bonding rabbits. I had one rabbit staying at my place for…[Read more]

These thoughts put me at ease, thank you very much. ☺️

We have a hate problem in every drug syndrome. Then it fixes. 🙄

Is he neutered? And also to clarify, you’ve had him since he was 2 weeks old or 2 months old? 2 weeks old means you have him while he was feeding off his mother.

There is a lot to consider with bringing a rabbit to a dorm room and into your university life. It sounds like you’ll either bring him with you or leave him at home? Am I interpreting…[Read more]

I wouldn’t worry about repurchasing stuff. The likelihood that whatever bacteria caused the infection can survive on other surfaces outside a warm body is low, I feel. It is not typically recommended or even mentioned to dispose of things for respiratory infections.

I also wouldn’t worry about him hating you. I’ve given one of my rabbits loads of…[Read more]

Some rabbits get spooked by foods… It happens haha.

I don’t know. I don’t feel comfortable. I’m thinking of repurchasing most of Cookie’s stuff. 😐

It was very wise of you to go to the vet when you noticed the breathing sounds! Hopefully he’ll recover now with the Bactrim.

I dont think you need to do extra cleaning of his stuff.

Cookie is now using Bactrim. Normally, there was no sound from the lungs of Cookie, yesterday, when we heard such a sound for the first time, we immediately went to the vet in 10 minutes. His eyes also seem to have improved for now. I think a few days Cookie will be better. 😐

Now he’s going to start hating me again for drugging him. 😐

🤣🤣🤣

I remember we had another BB member whose rabbit reacted with fear the first time he was given a strawberry. My bun Yohio had the same reaction to a plate with a piece of butternut squash. He backed away from the plate until he had his back against the wall, where he sat and stared in terror at the (apparently) threatening piece of…[Read more]
