Thanks guys! 🙂
No, he isn’t on meloxicam or anything. I will ask the vet about it, though, if the supplements end up causing more trouble than good.
He seems to be enjoying the brushing 🙂 He gets all settled in while I comb and pluck his fur. He is such a good boy and rarely gets feisty about the baths and brushing. 🙂 I found a comb with…[Read more]

Oh well I guess I didn’t mention the magic number of layers of masking tape on baseboards is 3 for mine 😂

Hiya! Hmm… that’s interesting. I’ve never had issues. My vet doesn’t shave too close and she doesn’t sedate either.

For the pen cover, I have a 3.5ft-high pen, and a queen-sized bed sheet, folded in half, was the perfect height for it.

Thank you Susanne! Yes I think I will have to do that in my next place. This place doesn’t necessarily have the best layout for alternative accommodations for her so I think I’ll just have to let it go for now until I figure out a better solution. I tried the masking tape thing too but she got a taste for that now as well! Ugh, it’s exhau…[Read more]

Thank you for your detailed response Wick and Fable. I guess this is just life now with my little girl! I’ve tried the cardboard cat scratches in her “hotspots” and it helps deter a bunch of destruction but she still eventually gets bored and moves on to something else I’d prefer she doesn’t do.  You offered some great suggestions with the anchor…[Read more]

Honestly it is up to you there is no right or wrong way to go. People do take there bunny’s on airplanes, and there is actually a bunny that travels the world. The bunnies personality comes in too, is he afraid of car ride, or loud noises? Since it is a one time thing and not like you would be going back and forth a lot it would be fine to take h…[Read more]

Hi, sorry to hear of your troubles. I can empathize! I agree with Wick & Fable (though I still need to try the suggestion to get more things anchored for my bun) that it’s relatively normal. I have one non-destructive bun that I got first, so it was a bit disappointing to deal with a destructo- bun that I bonded him with. At first I hoped the…[Read more]

I wouldn’t characterize her behaviors as aggressive or dominant — they actually sound like normal rabbit behavior. Instinctively, rabbits are going to be chewers– their teeth are constantly growing, so it is an imperative on their end to use a lot of energy to keep their mouths occupied. Unfortunately, yes, this is very frustrating to us owners,…[Read more]

Hello all!
Challenged bunny mom here at nearly my witts end! I love my little 1 year old (spayed) female rescue but she is totally ruining my house. Since I got her at 4 months old, I have let her free roam with the hopes of a full fun life and that her emergent aggressive behavior would settle with age. However, despite  having a house that’s li…[Read more]

How old is your bun? Was he more (or less) active when he first came to you?
I found a rabbit in the woods once, my first bun as a grown up. (It’s the bun in my avatar, Bam. I also took my BB name from him. He changed my life for the better).
We could never figure out his age since he was fully adult when we found him, but it seemed pretty…[Read more]

I’m very sorry you lost Baby. It sounds like she had a wonderful bun life with you. 💗
We try to spread the word that girl buns should be spayed for health reasons, your story is very helpful. Thank you for sharing it with us!

Some joint support (GAGs, glucoseaminoglucans) can sometimes cause stomach upset in humans as well.
Is he on meloxicam for arthritis? (Meloxicam can be a bit hard on the tummy too, but can be combined with famotidine to protect the stomach lining). Arthritic rabbits typically do well on a maintenance dose of meloxicam. For more severe pain,…[Read more]
