Here is an article that documents 2 cases: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/1040638714545111

“Considering rabbits’ susceptibility to experimental HHV encephalitis, high prevalence of disease in people, and the popularity of domestic rabbits as pets and laboratory animals, a higher incidence of spontaneous d…[Read more]

First of all… breathe. I know this is causing you a lot anxiety, but try not to freak out. Rabbits are susceptible to Herpes simplex 1. But here is the important part – This is in a lab controlled setting. Naturally occurring infections (human to rabbit transmission) have been documented, but they are extremely rare. Think about how common cold…[Read more]

The double negative totally makes sense.. I used to pick her up rarely to get her back in the pen and that I stopped after she started acting aloof (fridge episode).

Using only the luring technique with some treats so she gets happy to be in her pen 🙂 She was getting back to almost normal last week and then the vaccine appointment came up…[Read more]

I will also mention that neutering a rabbit does not guarantee he will come to be a perfect litterbox rabbit. My male rabbit is still pretty bad at litterbox habits, as a part of his personality and how he expresses frustration… you may need to do some training, as it may not automatically happen nor may not; however, being neutered does…[Read more]

At this point, aside from vet assessment, all you can probably do is just monitor. While I know it is hard and easier said than done, but remember overwhelming yourself with stress and anxiety is not helpful for yourself or your rabbit at this time. I think raising awareness is really important, as I was not aware of this.

Thanks for the update and big YAY för Esther’s health and adoption! She is a very lucky girl!

I’m sorry, this must be so stressful. 🙁  Don’t blame yourself, it could have happened to anyone. I don’t have any helpful info for you unfortunately, but I hope your bun will be fine. Please let us know what the vet says.

Some see changes around 2 weeks post-neuter, but not everyone. In fact, I don’t think that is the norm. Sometimes it takes as long as 8 weeks, but I think 4-6 weeks post-neuter is standard.

I’m glad he finally started eating his broccoli!

My guess is that he had a temporary bout of gas, if his appetite returns to normal now and he produces poop and pee. Gas can be very painful for rabbits, and when rabbits are in pain, they as a rule show it first by refusing food. I recommend you get some simethicone baby gas drops to have on hand,…[Read more]

Here they are all snuggled up – what a pair of posers! They’ve given me a fair few sleepless nights lately but it’s all worth it when we see them curled up together like this ❤

Thank you so much for your help! 🙂

Hi Keara! We are happy to provide information and suggestions. On the plus side, the fact that there isn’t immediate aggression and they are able to eat side by side is a positive sign.

There is a Bonding template with questions that would be helpful for you to answer in a reply. It will give people more information!: https://binkybunny.com/forums…[Read more]
