It’s very natural to have mixed feelings about things — she helps your anxiety when you watch her binky and hold her, and at the same time, she seems to be a big source of anxiety right now. There’s a lot that goes into taking care of a pet rabbit, and if you feel you may not be able to take care of her right now, I would recommend rehoming her.…[Read more]

If he was bonded before then we know he’s a normal bunny (there are the odd bunnies who just don’t want a friend). I would say it isn’t really too soon as long as the buns you’re looking at are neutered. If not maybe the shelter can neuter one and keep him for you for a couple/few weeks until you can bring him home to do prebonding? If not it’s…[Read more]

Please try not to worry.

When corn kernels become popcorn,  the corn kernels burst because the starchy contents expand when heated. A bun will survive eating pop corns. It’s not an ideal food for buns, but its not outright lethal. It’s very wise to avoid feeding rabbits whole dried corn kernels, but I have a bun who lived on rabbit muesli mix…[Read more]

Rabbits ideally shouldn’t be fixed until they’re fully grown to allow the skeleton to develop properly. This is especially important for giant breeds like Flemmies because of their weight, they don’t stop growing until they’re 9-12 months old. Early neutering can cause developmental abnormalities which can in turn cause issues like hip dysplasia,…[Read more]

Ive seen similar mucus in my bun’s poop. He was prescribed 5 days of metronidazole (an antibiotic) and it went away with that.

Ah, yuck, that’s always a mess… Sadly bunnies can get very upset when something changes in their environment, but it doesn’t have to mean she’s upset with you. It’s just that bunnies don’t cope well with change. Even fixed bunnies will often have a lapse in habits when a major change happens.

Picture it like this: a rabbit is all about…[Read more]

Soak sticks in juice.   Place in oven for 10-15  mins at 350 degrees. This will keep them from moulding.

What a cute little bunny!

Hi there, I am new to this group and I don’t have an answer to your question, but I can say that when we introduced our two bunnies they did not like each other at all at first and fought a lot. We introduced them in neutral territory like we were supposed to but it took a few weeks before we could actually leave them alone together. Now they c…[Read more]

Thanks.  I’m planning on brushing him daily.

Wow that is interesting about EC. He has had a little bit of a head tilt and also his right ear falls to the right quite frequently. And I have noticed his eyes look a little “glazed” for lack of a better word. I will definitely talk to the new vet about these things. Thanks for bringing those possibilities to my attention.

This isn’t normal. What are the medications?
