Yes.  I named the bun.  Her name is Lollipop because she licks everything!  Poppy for short.

She is warming up to me.  She still isn’t spayed so I think that explains some of her mood swings.  She is getting spayed this month I think so I think she might get better.  We’ll see.  I am scared though.  I friend of mine had her bunny neutere…[Read more]

I’m so happy that you’re seeing good behavior! I’m also 2 years into a bond and finally getting progress so I know exactly how exciting this must be for you! Keep up what you’ve been doing because it sounds like it’s working 🙂

The doctor told me to do a recheck in ten days, but the oral baytril said to be use for 14 days. I’m not sure if I should go back in ten days or rebook another day?

That sounds perfect 😃

He been on the medication for teo days and he’s eating all his treats and dinner normally :), the vet did tell me the baytril would have side effects, and I think aventi GI paste is working

If he willingly takes a trest and is eating and pooping, I agree with Wick. Gas pain is practically always accompanied by refusal or reluctance to eat. You can try giving him a treat -if he eats it, it’s pretty safe to say he’s not in pain.

Baytril does mess a bit with the microbial balance in the gut, because it kills both the bad,…[Read more]

Dana is right, a rabbit can navigate well in low lights, which means they employ their other senses, not just their eyesight. Blind rabbits often function very well, but all rabbits, blind or not, will want to find their own toilet spot and also mark their new home a bit with poop, especially near entrances.

That sounds kind of normal to me, though I haven’t personally seen any of my rabbits do it for such a long time. One of my rabbits flops a lot and the other doesn’t. Their reactions to flops are different. The one who flops a lot can stay in the flop for a longer time and when she “snaps out of it”, she’ll stay generally in the same position. The…[Read more]

Hm, I did see him press his stomach down while he was doing a loaf, he is eating, pooping and drinking. He’s on oral baytril right now and he is also on aventi GI pasted. If that’s what is call.

They are beautiful and so cute!

I think the fact you had some very good times with them is promising. All of this could have been set off by illness as well. I wish they could just tell us what’s going on in those little bunny brains!

Do keep an eye on Phil. If she seems very depressed then maybe side-by-side housing (without swapping) would be…[Read more]

I took him to the vet yesterday, no sign of ear mites or anything. I feel like he is just tossing around lol, he only does it like three times and stops

How long have you had her? Sometimes it can take new bunnies a little while to get organized. You can try removing the tray and then seeing what corner she naturally chooses for her toilet area, then add the tray there. Bunnies are very scent and touch (whiskers) oriented when things are close, so she they usually arent using their eyes as much as…[Read more]

Could he have an itchy ear? Any signs of ear mites?

One of my bunnies will often flop a few times before finally getting comfy (I can relate… I always toss and turn a bit before falling asleep).

Sometimes if a bun has gas, it can have difficulty finding a comfortable position. You can sometimes see how it presses its belly against the floor -it looks rather like when a person tries to do a push up but fails to keep the back straight.

Gas can be treated on suspicion with 0.5-1 ml simethicone baby gas drops, once per hour for 3 hours, then…[Read more]

I’m glad you’ll get to do the fecal float locally! So much less hassle!

Antibiotic costs can vary depending on location and also dispensed volume. Since this is an older topic, I will lock it. That being said, feel free to create a new topic if there is curiosity around costs!
