How long have you had him?

My bunnies love to nap under my bed too. Maybe you can add some hides and tunnels around the room to encourage exploring other places? What type of flooring do you have? If it’s slippery adding some rugs should help too.

If they have a bonded trio, it’s pretty weird that they would want to separate them. But maybe they aren’t really bonded but share a play area? Did they mention why they are looking to rehome one? You might ask if they would allow a trial period while you try to bond them, sort of like fostering?

Dominance has nothing to do really with whether a…[Read more]

It’s tough to give a valid judgment without pictures or descriptions– there are often breed mixes and variations within breeds that happen too.

A rabbit vet (who should be who you’re seeing for the neuter) will be able to let you know. Typically, you are looking for not visible ribs and if you run your hand along the spine, you should feel…[Read more]

That’s my biggest worry… that the bonding won’t work out. I don’t know what I would do. Cooper is very dominant already. I just don’t know if he will be happy forever as a single bun? My fiancé works from home and I am a teacher so I have summers off. We give him lots of love and attention. I was going to ask the person if we could take Cooper…[Read more]

Thank you for replying! I called my regular vet on Friday and they weren’t able to see him until the 12th. I called every vet that I know of in my area that sees bunnies and was unable to find one that could see him. His lip looked a lot better Saturday then it looked pretty swollen on Sunday. I was able to take him to my second choice vet ye…[Read more]

I’m so sorry for the loss of Pom Pom! It must have been so traumatic. Maybe she got scared of something, or there was a chemical on the grass? Again, I’m so sorry for your loss!

I agree 100% that you need to modify their housing so this cannot happen, and if it seems deep or split, then she should be seen by a vet. Bunnies can injure each other pretty seriously though a single wall of an x-pen.

We have started the week long bonding process – 😳 in hope to cement their relationship.  Oddly enough Louie seems to chase Milo way more than he ever has. I will keep an eye on this. It is the reason we didn’t do an overnight last night as I had read you should wait until no chasing or nipping before moving to that stage. So we…[Read more]

If the wound is uncomplicated, keeping it clean will be enough. It’s probably not much point in putting on antibiotic ointment if its on the lip, because she’d just lick it off. Inspect the wound daily.

A deep wound or a wound that splita the lip should be seen by a vet. If you are able to take pictures it would be very helpful.

You must make…[Read more]

I have a bun named Cooper too! 🙂

So, it’s always good to have a back-up plan in case a bond doesn’t work out, and plan for bonding to take a while. That said, most bonds do work out, and male-female (neutered and spayed) is the most common and usually most successful combination. Sometimes you need to do more work than you planned to bond them…[Read more]

That’s good to hear he’s improving!
