I didn’t know this about extruded pellets, either. My bun, Binkie, was going through cecal dybiosis (soft and runny cecotropes), and Science Selective pellets cleared up her cecal dysbiosis gloriously… she’s back to normal now. It was stressful but we got through it. I hope everything turns out okay with your adorable bun! ♥

While unfortunate that you are in this situation and ultimately a vet practice should at least fully inform you on their situation, I know that in my area of the US, there has actually been an extreme shortage in resources and staff in veterinary practices, especially exotics, which were already less common. With increased demand due to the spike…[Read more]

Wow they sound like they need reported then, they definitely should have rescheduled any bunny after they ran out, especially given they aren’t willing to get you some from another vet. So there are more rabbits they did at low cost that day that also have to suffer. Unprofessional and cruel. Sorry you and bunny have to go through this, and…[Read more]

Agree with LBJ. They need at least 4 hours of free running time a day in a bunny proofed room. The rabbit cages you can buy at pet stores are usually way too small, if that’s what you have I would recommend that you attach the exercise pen to the cage so that he has access to both when he’s locked up.

Rabbits will chew on anything and everything.…[Read more]

I know what it’s like. It’s so hard, and it hurts so much, and you constantly wonder when the unbearable pain and grief will end. I lost my precious baby boy, Usagi, and I haven’t got over it yet. It’s been over two whole years, and I still can’t think of him or say his name without bursting into tears, or shattering my heart to pieces. I ‘m still…[Read more]

If your bun eats fresh greens, f ex  lettuce you can rinse the leaves and serve them wet. If a rabbit gets fresh greens, the rabbit will drink way less than a rabbit that only 3ats hay and pellets.

Is your rabbit pooping normally? If a rabbit doesnt drink the poop will become sparse and very dry, or, if its really bad, stop pooping altogether.…[Read more]

Yay! Thanks for the update!

Yeah much better thank you

How large is his cage and how large is the exercise pen? Can you combine the two? Bunnies need lots of room when being confined. They also benefit from regular run time in a bunny-proofed area. Young bunnies especially love to explore.

I agree, it’s very unprofessional for them to go through with the surgery knowing they don’t have the needed post surgery medications to send home with the rabbit. If they ran out unexpectedly they should have rescheduled the spay. Especially since it’s a prescription only medication not labelled or rabbits that other vets will be hesitant or…[Read more]

Yeah, they’re closed today, but Im gonna try calling again tomorrow morning and ask why they can’t do that.. Thank you all for the help!

Hmm… that’s odd. The vet should be able to call over to another vet office.

That’s exactly what I thought! Even before that, I thought it was very unprofessional of them to be out of stock in the first place because today is specifically the day where they neuter/spay 15-20 bunnies at a low cost (called low-cost day), so they should’ve ordered a lot more beforehand. It was shocking to me because the Georgia House R…[Read more]

And your vet can’t call another and get the prescription because they ran out? They’d rather let your bun suffer? I’d be calling cursing and NEVER go back.

Thank you for the advice! Unfortunately, Ive called almost every single vet in my area, and they all said they can’t give it to me because it’s a prescription. I called the vet we went to to get the spay, and they said it’s not possible to get metacam elsewhere because it’s a prescription 🙁 Thank you again though!!
