Hahaha I did get lucky! He’s even worse than I am with some bunnies. We started fostering Bonnie just to see how it went and hopefully have a trio. But then that didn’t work out, and he was like “we can’t send her back” after seeing how well she was doing with us. At at that point we were all crammed into a studio apartment!!

They definitely are. I really trust them. They literally saved my other bun from a bad bought of stasis and nursed her back to life. I am just worried because he sounded worried. She really loves food (she’s a rescue and was battered by another rabbit for most of her life) so I would be very very concerned if he couldn’t get her to eat.

I can’t…[Read more]

I’m sorry to hear about your bun 🙁   One thing that stood out to me was how your vet was stressing getting the pain meds right away and making sure she eats. That makes me think your girl is in very good hands since they sound experienced with rabbits. I’ve seen some tragic stories and inexperienced vet stories so try and relax knowing they are m…[Read more]

She is sooooo cute – OMG! ♥ 

Sorry I must have missed your post when I posted an update!

I did take your advice though! I tried my best not to intervene and let them handle it. And Wolfie actually started grooming her! I feel silly now because they’ve been doing this dance for days and I kept intervening. I did let him while he groomed her, just because he kept switching t…[Read more]

Hi, from what I’ve read you’re up to a dangerous temperature for rabbits. If there is a portable A/C or anything for her room it would be good. I think they are at a pretty serious risk of overheating over 80 degrees F, and you’re at 86.

There are different views on this. When my bun Vilde was slowly recovering from a long bout of stasis, my rabbit savvy vet told us to stop Reglan (metoclopramide) without tapering. I asked about it, because I had read that it needs tapering, but the vet said they never recommend that for their patients. My bun recovered without tapering.

It can…[Read more]

Foraging mixes are not treats unless they have added pieces of dried carrot etc. Apple twigs don’t have a lot of sugar unless there’s been sugar added to them. My bun Bam went crazy for apple twigs too, he was allowed them by his bunny savvy vet when he was on a diet. He got fresh twigs from my garden, so there was absolutely no sugar added.

I’d be happy with any amount of rabbits but my boyfriend wouldn’t to for more than 2 so you’re lucky it you have someone who is on board with so many!! Rabbits are the best ❤️

You can dip your hands in cool water and wet her ears with your wet hands. Rabbits thermoregulate in hot weather primarily via their ears.

It is like 35 degrees of Celsius outside and inside we have like 30. So it is really hot.

I gave her frozen water bottle but she won’t lay next to it. The only way we cool her down is a fan in a room and wet towel

Really hot, it is like 35 degrees of Celsius outside. Inside we have like 30.

We try to cool her down but she won’t lay next to frozen bottle only when I cool her down with my hand and cold wet towel.

She is not letargic at all so I doubt it’s a health issue

How old is she? Some rabbits regulate to a “chill” activity period during the large majority of the day, as that’s when they usually sleep. It can be a very different energy-schedule than a younger rabbit who, like a human child, defies the laws of when they “should” be asleep versus awake.

All this being said, it is best to first discount health…[Read more]
