Oil doesn’t really do anything. It just makes a mess, IMO. If you believe it is ear mites, then you can treat with Revolution or Ivermectin. You can get this from a vet.

pinkiemarie replied to the topic Cat or Rabbits? (Comparison) in the forum THE LOUNGE 5 years, 8 months ago
I have 3 cats and 3 bunnies and I wholeheartedly agree that the bunnies are more work. So much more work. But their happiness is contagious so it’s all a balancing act.
My bunnies are also very loving with me but in their own way. They like to put their heads on the floor and have me pet them. They do not like being picked up and if I’m petting…[Read more]

Unfortunately I don’t have space big enough for that many pens except in the area they live in, which is definitely not neutral. I’ll try some kind of obstacle though!

I’m so sorry for your loss. 🙁 Ten is a wonderful age for a rabbit, and what an adorable little guy! It sounds like he had a wonderful life with you. <3

DanaNM replied to the topic Need advice on working out dominance in the forum BONDING 5 years, 8 months ago
Ooh yeah litter boxes are often a problem, I was thinking more of tunnels or other obstacles to help break up chases and line of sight when things get tense. I like using boxes with both ends opened up, so they are more of a short square tunnel.
They can be hit or miss though, as Wick said. Sometimes one bunny will claim a hide and get…[Read more]

rabbithabit started the topic Tear duct flush worth it? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 5 years, 8 months ago
I have an 8 year old rabbit. Her tear ducts are completely blocked and her eyes have been weeping. The vet is recommending a tear duct flush and x rays to check her teeth. However I am unconvinced it will be worth the distress to my bunny? She doesn’t seem to be in pain and since she is older I am worried about the general anesthesia. From looking…[Read more]

Hello and thank you for your replies. I do appreciate you getting back to me with any opinions.
Luna is doing ok once more, it’s emeprid that is given to her when this happens and it seems to do the trick in a matter of hours, she was cleared by the vets as fine and dandy and then we get her home and the next morning she is off her food. Instead…[Read more]

Wick & Fable replied to the topic Diet for babies in the forum DIET & CARE 5 years, 8 months ago
Personally, I do not know anybody nor read any experiences of alfalfa hay+pellets up to 6mo — typically it’s the one or the other you mention, or stopped earlier. That being said, I navigate rabbit forums where people post when something is wrong and often recommendations require potential modifications to what is “standard”.
I am not a vet, but…[Read more]

I know there’s lots of conflicting info out there on diet & care for rabbits, just wondering what your opinion is…
I’m in a few Facebook rabbit groups and people always say unlimited alfalfa hay, unlimited alfalfa pellets for babies until 6 months. However, I was also told that if they’re on alfalfa pellets, it’s okay to have them on timothy…[Read more]

Great news!!! The nose to nose pets are a great tool and worked well for me too. Keep us posted, hopefully Theo will give up on the chasing soon, but at least it’s not escalating to a fight!

whaaatmani started the topic Ear Mites? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 5 years, 8 months ago
My bunny Sawyer has been scratching his head and neck area more frequently and I’m thinking it might be an ear infection? I’ve looked up remedies and I saw oil is very helpful, so I was thinking of putting olive oil in his ears but say he doesn’t have an ear infection at all. Would the oil affect him negatively since there nothing to treat? I hope…[Read more]

I was going to suggest blood test, with as frequently as she has the episode I would be a little concerned about an ulcer. I had a bunny who kept getting gi stasis no explanation, turned out it was a gastric ulcer.
As to the spurs was she put under for it? In my experience the only way to really tell is a sedated exam and if you are going to do…[Read more]

Late last night I finally put my Frankie to rest. He was a couple months over 10 years old! He’d been blind for several years but over the last 6 months his cataracts had developed into glaucoma and he developed dental disease. My vet was helping with pain management and treating the dental disease as it came up, but yesterday he suddenly seemed…[Read more]

Peter'sOwner replied to the topic my rabbit is suddenly aggressive and biting in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 8 months ago
I think we have figured out the behavior still not sure what to do about it though. It seems that Peter likes to pick items he likes to decorate his sleeping spots and even if it seems like a piece of trash he gets angry if you take it away or touch it.
