I’ve been wondering if the average life span of rabbits would be higher of only people who care for them properly are included.
I hope the move goes well, keep us posted. A big van and everyone together will hopefully be enough to keep it bearable for everyone.
My cat did those things too! He would act like he wanted to try and bond with Elmer…[Read more]

Does he always look up? Because in the video, it just looks like normal eating hay behavior. Sometimes the strands of hay are long/tangled and rabbits will give a tug with their head while trying to eat it.

i attached a video of my bunny above, eating hay. He has ear mites and i was wondering if this could be a head tilt resulting from an ear infection? His head is not tilting to one side, but is instead almost making it look like he’s just looking up. It has only happened 4 times during the day. If it is head tilt, what can I do to help him??

The mini rex is about 3 or 4 months old now. I think Im going to make a vet appointment anyway so they can check what sex it is and possibly schedule the surgery! Really hoping I can get these two bonded once they are both fixed.

Hmm well my Husband has been moving some things around the house maybe he is worried we will move the desk too?
He is eating and using the litter box normally. He is a bigger rabbit maybe he is having some joint or teeth pain I’ll give him a once over.

Yes I think we are going to rent a van so we have lots of space for crates and good AC! I think they will be ok… bunnies are far more adaptable creatures than we sometimes give them credit for!
My cat ignores them for the most part. Sometimes he tries to eat their hay and they chase him off, or he’ll do that thing where he lays down and then…[Read more]

Remind me which pair were the original duo? I would keep that pair together.
The situation you’re describing is one of the reasons I didn’t push forward with my trio, I was afraid Bonnie would be the odd one out and the others wouldn’t fully accept her.
With the injuries you have described I don’t think more bonding sessions at this time would…[Read more]

Well, as much as I hate to say it, I don’t know if they are going to work. 😥 OB’s scab has gotten bigger, and she has subjected herself to Silver’s bullying. What kills me, is that I don’t think Silver even realizes what she’s doing. 🙁 I really don’t want to separate them, but I don’t want OB to get hurt because of that decision. And the…[Read more]

@Bam hi there! I’m not too worried about the poops either tbh, I was just curious as to why it was happening haha! It’s good to know Sid isn’t the only bun that has a poop schedule!
I saw him throw his head back whilst eating around 4 times in the past 12 or so hours. He usually looks up whilst eating anyway to look around, but today he aggre…[Read more]

Susanne replied to the topic February Chat! in the forum THE LOUNGE 5 years, 7 months ago
Wow that is a major move! My rabbits hate the car, but Elmer starts to relax if on my lap. A 5 day I think they would adapt (mine have been more adaptable to things than I have expected) but I’d be worried too since even 4 hour trip would be much different. Hopefully having fluids with you will prevent any dehydration. I’m sure you’ll make them…[Read more]

DanaNM replied to the topic Litter trained rabbit loses habits during bonding in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 7 months ago
It might not stop until they are bonded, but might improve once the female is spayed. It’s very normal for un-bonded rabbits to mark a lot, and un-castrated rabbits around can definitely trigger marking in rabbits that otherwise have good litter box habits.

So recently I got my male Netherland dwarf a new friend, as they’re not bonded yet I have the cage split in half so they can socialize but not go after each other. I noticed the last time I had bonded him with a female (who sadly passed) he just stops peeing in his box. Which is so strange to me cause he’s typically super clean otherwise. He’…[Read more]

Thank you! If I got to Norway the buns won’t be coming with me, they’ll stay with my husband. But either way we are moving cross country in early March… I am not looking forward to traveling with 4 bunnies, a cat, and a gecko! I think we are going to have to rent a van and drive, but I’m really worried about how Bun Jovi (who is 12) will handle…[Read more]

DanaNM replied to the topic Bonding After a Spay in the forum BONDING 5 years, 7 months ago
You should wait until they are completely healed and their hormones have settled down before working to bond them. For healing, they should be in a restricted space for 2 weeks, small enough that they can’t run and with nothing to jump up on. It seems cruel, but the spay surgery is pretty invasive, and they can pull internal sutures if they run or…[Read more]
