I’m sorry you lost her.
Its highly likely there was something really wrong with her that caused her to stop suckling.

Thank you .
I couldn’t save her , kitten replacement formula is not available here , we have very limited pet stores which have only puppy milk formula . I tried for goat milk too , no exotic vet available. She was unable to use her hind legs & had seizures too , its just only 1 month , I lost her 😢
She was fine till a day ago but unexpectedly…[Read more]

LBJ10 replied to the topic Homemade Rabbit Pellets in the forum DIET & CARE 5 years, 7 months ago
I agree with Dana. There are several great pellets out there now, including “fewer ingredients” varieties. The pellets have vitamins and minerals to make sure bunny is getting everything they need.
If you are able, you can go pellet-free. But you have to be able to provide a WIDE variety of veggies and hay. Otherwise, your bunny may not be…[Read more]

LBJ10 replied to the topic What breed is he? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 5 years, 7 months ago
Considering his size, he’s probably a dwarf mix as well. Dwarf rabbits can have babies that do not carry the dwarfism gene (false dwarf). So… I’m going to guess a dwarf mix.
It’s hard to tell from the photo, but his coloring looks to be a tricolor. Maybe blue/fawn/white variety? The harlequin pattern gene has been introduced into a lot of…[Read more]

LBJ10 replied to the topic Rabbit Health and Dandruff?? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 5 years, 7 months ago
Bam, yes, I have read some studies looking at moxidectin and fur mites. That is in the same family as selamectin, but may be different enough that it would work on fur mites that have developed resistance to selamectin.
They no longer make the original Advantage (as far as I know). The original formula only had imidacloprid. The formula was…[Read more]

This page covers the basics and gives lots of ideas on what to do and how to do it: https://binkybunny.com/infocategory/bunny-proofing/
Also to clarify when I said to ignore her in the other post, what I really meant was pretend to ignore her 😉 So you could be reading a book or watching a movie in the same room, but also be keeping an ear out…[Read more]

LBJ10 replied to the topic Do rabbits “go off” food? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 5 years, 7 months ago
Sometimes lettuce, especially “bagged” lettuce, is a bit off. Like it doesn’t smell very appetizing. Bunnies may snub lettuce if they think it smells funny. I’ve had that happen before.
Spring mix can be great. Just look at the ingredients. Keep in mind that even if it does contain items higher in oxalates, it will still be OK if they only make…[Read more]

I am planning to free roam my rabbit some time in the future but for now I want to bunny proof my room so I can give my rabbit more free roam time. As of right now I have to watch her super closely while letting her out but I would love to start bonding with her. Someone said to ignore her and just let her come to me and sniff me but that’s d…[Read more]

NalaBunny replied to the topic Rabbit that doesn't like people in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 7 months ago
She eats super well and her poops are very regular. She loves to binky around and is normally pretty active. We also did get her spayed a little while ago and had a mini check up then and everything was completely fine.
I’m definitely gonna try some of your bonding tips to see if that helps. Thanks you so much for your help -
NalaBunny replied to the topic Mats to go beneath pen and protect floor? in the forum HABITATS AND TOYS 5 years, 7 months ago
Ya I think the puzzle mats would work great. Try to leave absolutely no exposed edges. This will prevent your rabbit from chewing the edges and corners. My rabbit is an extreme digger and has caused me a few problems.
To solve this I took a box and cut out the top with an entrance that she has to jump into (like a tall litter box). I filled this…[Read more]

DanaNM replied to the topic Rabbit that doesn't like people in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 7 months ago
Oh wow, you’ve had her a while! There are some bunnies that do seem to be somewhat antisocial. But there are also some that just take a really long time to come out of their shell. Forum leader Bam’s bunny Bam decided after about a year that he liked her and suddenly liked exploring.
Other tips for bonding include doing lots of hand-feeding. You…[Read more]

NalaBunny replied to the topic Advice for temporary flooring in the forum HABITATS AND TOYS 5 years, 7 months ago
I would use puzzle play mats. These are waterproof and if you place it to were there are no exposed edges it is very unlikely that she will chew on it. Also a great place to get sea grass mats are from 101rabbits.

NalaBunny started the topic Bored bunny. HELP in the forum HABITATS AND TOYS 5 years, 7 months ago
My bunny, Nala, seems to always be bored. I have a large 6’ by 8’ cage. I have several hide houses, lots of toys, and even a dig box. Even with all this she just sits in a corner and digs the entire day. Do you think I should get nic grids and try to add a more structured design or something else. I would really appreciate some help on this, I jus…[Read more]

NalaBunny replied to the topic Rabbit that doesn't like people in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 7 months ago
Thank you so much I will definitely try that, I’ve had her for around a year now. I don’t think she has a problem with her cage just because she willingly comes out during her free roam time and loves to jump around as long as I leave her alone.
I think with the free roaming thing I’m gonna keep her cage at first and just leave the door open…[Read more]
