I know that ivermectin has oral (the paste) and injection (suspension) options but I didn’t think you could give the injectable one orally y’know? I thought there was a difference between the two and it seemed really weird to me. Seems like the equivalent of just swallowing insulin rather than injecting it which wouldn’t be effective. I’m a littl…[Read more]

My bunny has been having multiple GI episodes for the last 6 month. All I have handled on my own with simithicone, reglan and pain meds. This morning he only ate part of his banana portion(very rare for him, always means unwell) but got some semithicone then ate some greens. Now he’s lethargic, teeth grinding, tummy stretches…. Obviously feel…[Read more]

Not sure where you are HipHop, but in CA we used to see hooded orioles in the bottle brush trees with the humming birds. I think all orioles are nectar feeders? They are so pretty!

DanaNM replied to the topic Ear mites and vet protocol in the forum DIET & CARE 5 years, 3 months ago
Aww poor guys. The recommendation about not cleaning is for at home, but I am guessing things are a little different when the vet does it.
So, I did a little reading on it and it looks like ivermectin is often given either orally or as an injectable for ear mites. Medirabbit (a trusted source) has more info and dosages, if you’d like to compare:…[Read more]

DanaNM replied to the topic How much fruit do you feed your bun? in the forum DIET & CARE 5 years, 3 months ago
I view fruit as special treat as well, so I tend to feed it very rarely. I kind of think of it the same as a bowl of ice cream for a human, so daily is probably too much, but it also depends on the amount. A bite of apple every day would be fine for most buns, but a large slice would be too much.
Rabbits don’t need fruit ever, so your vet is…[Read more]

Wick & Fable replied to the topic Need Advice for an Injured Wild Rabbit in the forum DIET & CARE 5 years, 3 months ago
Unfortunately, we cannot replace a vet, and if veterinarians in your area are unwilling to treat it due to it being a wild rabbit, there is not much that can be done aside from what you may perceive to be the necessary first aid. Are there any rehabilitation centers you’re willing to go to that may be more flexible with their procedures?
Also,…[Read more]

I live out in the country with an outside cat, so naturally he hunts.
Today he brought a live young Cottontail rabbit (I wanna say roughly no older than 6 months old, still very small). I managed to get it away from him, but there is a deep puncture just above the right eye, just below the forehead. I got the bleeding to stop, but her eye is…[Read more]

Hi! I’m new here so hopefully this is the right place to ask this 😛
I was just curious how many people give their buns fruit, and if there are any that don’t. We give ours a very small amount only once in a while as a special treat, but I’ve heard of people giving their rabbits fruit daily.
Our vet recently told us that rabbits should…[Read more]

martini replied to the topic Granite mortar as water bowl in the forum DIET & CARE 5 years, 3 months ago
Just updating this thread in case anyone is searching for something similar. I ended up getting him a heavy small stone hot pot (the kind they use for bibimbap in Korean cuisine). It is NOT porous, it is polished and smooth ceramic inside, dishwasher safe and heavier than any ceramic bowls I looked at as it needs to be able to handle the heat…[Read more]

I think my landlord would actually kick me out if I adopted 3! She barely tolerates the thought of 2. Lol.
I’ve found that adopting or fostering helps me grieve easier knowing I am giving an animal a safe place to be whether permanently or while in transition.

Plovers are such gorgeous birds! <3
Things over here have been going well. 🙂 It’s so nice to see flowers and trees in bloom, with bees pollinating.
I’ve also been getting some Hummingbirds visiting my feeder. However, they are not the only ones who are making use of the food supply… Lately, there have been visits from some big yellow birds…[Read more]

Dorian’s definitely a sneaky bun. 🥰 The innocent bewilderment on his face is priceless!
And, Frenora! They look so happy and cozy. 🙂 It warms my heart every time when I think of how far he’s come.
Oh, the horrors of nail-clipping! 😆 They look so cute together.

I’d love to see the video of Elmer listening to music😂 Sounds sweet😇😇
I wonder what kind of psychology my son has. How much pain does he have, listening to arabesque music? 😂 Do he have love pain? 😂😂😂

That is too funny. My Elmer likes music when he’s in the mood. This week he came under my desk while I had the speaker on, and he flopped 2x, purred like crazy and finally went into a deep sleep, full REM sleep with all the twitching 😆

prince dorian the bun replied to the topic training the non-food motivated rabbit in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 3 months ago
he was told not to have fruit or veg, my options are very limited, and I think the alfalfa pellets fall under that. His only exceptions in fruit is papaya, he will pick it out of his bowl and toss it, or pineapple which he likes but isn’t going to do anything he wasn’t going to anyway to get it. But even before now I couldn’t bribe him with…[Read more]
