Casper and Thumper started the topic Should I be worried about my bun getting neutered? in the forum DIET & CARE 5 years, 6 months ago
Hey guys, I’m kind of scared about getting my senior older neutered. I’m not sure exactly how old my rabbit is, we got him for free from an acquaintance like 5 years ago and he was already an adult when we got him. He seemed to be at least a year old but I really can’t be sure. He is an American chinchilla rabbit and his life span is only about…[Read more]

LBJ10 replied to the topic Bunny butt in the forum DIET & CARE 5 years, 6 months ago
It looks like you edited your post. From what I can see, his butt is a little messy. But it isn’t terrible. It looks more like he’s just been sitting in dirty litter. Does he hang out in his litter box a lot? If he’s in a clean environment then this level of dirtiness will likely resolve on its own. What kinds of treats are you giving him? Even if…[Read more]

If he’s already on gas drops, you could try massaging his belly. You can also try lifting his rear end up a bit, if he’ll let you. The gas will naturally want to travel upward, so lifting his rear will direct the gas in the proper direction.

Did the vet check his teeth?

My question is is this a really dirty bunny butt? I went to my vet for his eyes about a month ago and idk if they check their butts too. I dont feel like going back to the vet but noticing his butt gets poopy more and more. its kind of been like this for a bit and I cant give him a bath on my own. the red part kind of has always looked like that…[Read more]

Hi, i´m really worried about my bunny, he´s is almost 6 years old and recently some of his poops are soft and a little bit wet or he’s also been having diarrhea (almost everyday in the past 3 weeks maybe). I took him to the vet on the first week, she examined him and did a blood test and everything was fine, he had an ultrasound scan too, the v…[Read more]

Casper and Thumper started the topic Bunny has gas :/ in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 6 months ago
Hey guys, my rabbit, Thumper has been having a whole lot of stomach issues lately, abnormal poop, gas, etc. We’ve taken him to the vet and he is on probiotics and gas drops. His feces and other issues seem to be clearing up but his gas just won’t go away. We think his stomach is acting up because he was on antibiotics and pain meds for an…[Read more]

That’s a good idea, he might nibble on the hay while he’s digging around looking for the good stuff 😀

j_frenetic started the topic Young rabbit nipping at me. What to do? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 5 years, 6 months ago
Hi all, I’ve adopted my first bunny (3.5 months old, male, not neutered) and I’ve had him for 3 days so far. He’s very shy and skittish, so I try to take baby steps when bonding with him. Every day he seems to grow a tiny bit more confident around me, but still won’t let me touch him, even when he gets closer. He seems very curious about his…[Read more]

LBJ10 replied to the topic New foster rabbit bit my little cousin in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 6 months ago
I just wanted to add that you can “squeal” if the bunny is biting you. Even if she isn’t actually biting through your clothes, you can still communicate with her by letting out a high pitched squeal. This tells her that she is hurting you (even if she’s not) and will prompt her to adjust her bite.

j_frenetic replied to the topic Litter training a young rabbit – should I start from day one? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 5 years, 6 months ago
I see. I put a few pieces today on the floor, without actually installing them, and let him try it out. It seemed like he didn’t have many issues with the traction, so will probably go ahead with the installation tomorrow. Thanks for your advice!

Wick & Fable replied to the topic New foster rabbit bit my little cousin in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 6 months ago
I do wonder whether this is aggression and/or a rabbit who enjoys chewing and nipping clothes/fabric. One of my rabbits loves digging and chewing into people’s clothes, and she is in no way aggressive. What can be nice about chewing clothes that a human is currently wearing is that there is inherent resistance and it’s sort of stuck in place, and…[Read more]

Three days ago, I got a new foster rabbit. She is a fixed female who has no history of aggression. On the second day I let her out to free roam around the room, and she seemed to have a fun time. However, she did run up and bite onto my jeans once. I didn’t think anything of it at the time.
Today, I was babysitting my two year old cousin. I let…[Read more]

He ate some parsley. 🙂 We’ll have to keep giving him a little bit of that everyday now. And maybe we could put some in his hay and on some romaine lettuce eventually.
