Activity

Hi

we just had another good long session- we tend to do the day time because that is when we have the time to be with them – but hoping to do a longer one – in to evening tomorrow.
Today I was so amused by Louie’s behaviour. He zoomed and jumped and span and flipped all over the pen for about 5 minutes- I have seen them both binky before but n…[Read more]

I’m sorry to hear that☹️. It must be stressful for you. It could be gas, and that would make sense why his stomach is pressed against the floor. Try some stomach massages, I’ve found those very effective. You can find good ways to massage a buns stomach online. I often rock my bunny’s stomach back and forth gently on both sides when he’s…[Read more]

It’s not terrible if a rabbit takes an occasional tiny nibble of any of the rabbit safe litters, but you certainly don’t want them to be ingesting any measurable quantities.  Besides the good suggestions already made here, you may want to try Oxbow Eco-Straw litter.  It comes in a pellet form and has very little if any scent at all, so I don’t t…[Read more]

Hi!

Thank you so much. He was eating the lettuce I gave him, and I put his bowl of pellets in front of him. He ended up pooping just a little bit, which relieved me a great deal. Just wish I wasn’t relieved he pooped on my bed. XD

I was also going to recommend maybe using a grate or litter box screen. If you have a cheap source of hay, you can also just fill the box with lots of hay and forgo litter entirely (you just have to clean it more).

Young bunnies can be kind of all over the place, but over time they usually start to adjust to a more regular schedule. Bunnies do tend to be most active at night and morning, so giving him at least some exercise time morning and evening will prob be the best balance for both of you.

How is he doing now?

Rabbits will often sleep during the day, and may not eat or during that time. It’s also normal for buns to take some time to settle in to new places, but can be stressed from travel.  Most buns eat and poop during the morning and evening, and over night. It’s important to know what’s normal for your bun. If he turns down…[Read more]

Hmm… well, I personally don’t know any other types of litter (especially if she likes eating it 😉 ) but maybe you could try one of those litter boxes with grated pens? It worked very well for me, as my bun loved to eat the fillings too 😂

Oh my goodness! He is so fluffy and beautiful!!! Welcome Ember <3 <3 <3

OMG that IS hilarious! 😂😂😂 The first time my bun flopped I was super scared too because her eyes were open (I didn’t know then that they sleep with their eyes open) and she wasn’t moving (because she was sleeping 😂)

@pinkiemarie – That’s awesome about the younger vets! We live in the middle east, so it’s really hard to find qualified vets that treat bunnies. I’m actually currently studying to become a rabbit-savvy vet, and I’m really serious about it. I can’t wait to save buns’ lives ♥

Update: OMG, I’m so seeing a difference with this hay diet. There are…[Read more]
