Oh my, how scary, I’m so sorry. ๐
I wonder if the removal of the tumor threw off his balance (since it was in his ear)? Extreme cases of head-tilt can look like this. Inner ear infections can cause ataxia (the rolling and stumbling you describe), so I feel like this is all be related to the mass in the ear, and possibly some swelling after it’s…[Read more]

Bam replied to the topic Facing every problem under the sun part 2 ๐ in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 5 years, 8 months ago
I am very sorry you are going through this.
The balance organs are located deep within the ears, in the so called labyrinths. The physical removal of the mass could perhaps have changed something in there. There is a big nerve, cranial nerve nr 8,ย that conveys balance info. Sense of orientation in space is maintained with the help of a fluid…[Read more]

That’s a really tough situation. ๐
Are you close enough with the family that you could maybe probe a bit more about the type of care they plan to give to the bunny? It does seem like with the rise of popular bunny youtube and Instagram channels there are a lot more young people wanting to spoil their bunnies and give them good lives, but the…[Read more]

I hope this is allowed…my apologies if not, please just delete if not.
There is a family at my church, I love them to death but with pets…ugh…
She has 4 kids but 2 are mid teens now. I guess her 3rd oldest who is maybe 12 wants a bunny, but I have been to their house & they are not the best with their animals. Not abusive, just…not very…[Read more]

Facing every problem under the sun, please help.
Hello all. I have a 3 yo neutered male rabbit named kale. We are currently facing every problem under the sun. Just when we think one problem is over, another one arises.
From the top: He has poor grooming habits and his fur matts with his poops. I have to dematt/cut and remove everything from…[Read more] -

DanaNM replied to the topic Rabbit won't stop destroying carpet in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 8 months ago
Sometimes it seems like rabbits learn to dig, and realize it’s so fun and want to keep doing it.
You might need to remove the rug from her pen at least. I’ve had some buns that just cant have blankets or rugs in their areas, because if they have 24/7 access they will destroy them. So I had to opt for cardboard, seagrass mats, etc. You might need…[Read more]

If it’s still been a couple months since the spay, it could be the hormones still sorting themselves out.
Digging is one of many enriching and entertaining behaviors rabbits do. They also do it in frustration. It sounds like it is something she enjoys doing since it seems you offer time and other toys. You can redirect the energy by making a dig…[Read more]

Hi everyone! It’s been a rough few past months for me, as my Nethie Ollie passed away back in November. I am thinking about posting in the Rainbow Bridge section but am still deciding what all I would say about the great rabbit he was, so a post may show up from me in that thread in the future, but we’ll see.
On a happier note, my rabbit Leo is…[Read more]

The whistling could be from a clogged nose. Do you see any discharge from the nostrils?
A worse case scenario is if the whistling comes from the lungs. It is difficult to determine the origin of the whistlingย without a stethoscope and some stethoscope practice.
Buns can get bacterial colds, in which case the treatment of choice is antibiotics…[Read more]
