@HipHopBunny He is super cute!! Also yes they allow me to foster him for about a week to decide if we are a good match. I just want to make sure I do everything right with him if I decide to! Nighttime is the only time I’m worried about at this moment as I believe I have a good grasp on the rest. I just deal with some noise sensitivity issues so m…[Read more]

Yup fingers crossed!🤞🏻

Is that him in the picture? Is he a dwarf breed like a Holland? At 6 months, dwarf breeds are pretty much done growing. You can start transitioning to an adult diet. If you haven’t already, that would mean switching to an adult pellet.

He sure sounds sweet!🥰

Maybe you could try fostering him and seeing how he is at night? The only time I really slept with them was when I was bonding them, and they did pretty well. 🙂

Fingers crossed that it’s a match!

I agree. It’s hard to tell from the picture. Syphilis comes to mind anytime you see a sore around the mouth, so I would definitely keep an eye on it. If it doesn’t heal or it gets worse (particularly yellow and crusty), then you should have a vet take a look. You don’t want to leave something that is treatable to fester.

He gets 1/2 cup veggies at 7 am in the mornings, 1/8 cup of pellets at around 11 am, and 1/2 cup veggies at 5:30 pm. After that sometimes around 12 am I see him eating hay.

Oh no, poor Wick! Rabbits are wiggly things sometimes, so don’t be too hard on yourself. It’s hard because pain management and confinement really is all you can do. I don’t even know if they could splint that successfully.

Agreed, there’s no rush. I would say this is actually a good thing. Teenage hormones play a big part in healthy development, so the fact that he gets to stay intact for a little while longer and let his hormones do their thing is great. Most of the time, the hormonal behaviors make this more or less impossible. I’m glad he’s behaving himself,…[Read more]

Aww, poor Wick. 🙁  Sometimes these things happen unfortunately. I hope he won’t take the confinement too hard, and will heal quickly. Managing the pain meds can be a balancing act, we don’t want them to be in pain but also not feeling so well that they are too active. Sending lots of healing vibes!

I’m unsure what that might be, but sores around/in the mouth is associated with rabbit syphilis, which is a treatable condition. As a young rabbit, it would have been something his mother was carrying and it was naturally passed on. If it is syphilis and is becoming symptomatic, you would need vet intervention to ensure the sores/blisters are…[Read more]

At what time(s) and how much non-hay food items does he get? It’s common for rabbits to prefer other food items above hay, so if they are a bit more prevalent or spaced out in certain ways daily, it can impact hay eating.

My bunny is also very bored throughout the day and he does have toys and hideouts but he doesn’t play with them. I have tried out organic palm leaf bowls and my bunny loves those even though he isn’t much of a chewer so yeah I totally recommend organic palm leaf bowls😉. Btw you can get these off Amazon!

There’s no rush, health wise. Most, if not all, intact buns will get spring fever in early spring, when the light starts to return. It tends to subside, at least to an extent. It sounds great that he isnt spraying now! Spraying is pretty much the least nice thing about bunny puberty.

And I also tried putting a plushie but he had no interest in it 😅

Hi, thank you all for the replies.

I haven’t got him fixed yet as all my vets are booked till June, but he has stopped with the circling and honking and is currently 6 months old. I’m very happy he isn’t spraying at all and is litter-trained😪 Moreover, he doesn’t show any aggression or destructiveness so I hope it stays like this. I still do want…[Read more]
