I haven’t heard of this for spay/neuter, but it’s very common for showing rabbits, so it is safe.

Maybe a better option would be to get her microchipped, then it would be in the system that she’s spayed?

I think some vets will also do a tattoo near where they would shave to prep for the surgery, that way if they ever went to spay the bun again…[Read more]

Yea thats kinda what I was thinking. Have them live in my room but separated and as the bonding progresses I can remove the gate and let them free roam in my room together.

Hi GraceandFlopsie,

I’ve actually had great success with the chew toys I’ve bought from here at the BinkyBunny store – I truly think they’re some of the best around! If you’re looking for specifics my bunnies Ollie and Leo have both loved the Bare Willow rings (they come in a 5 pack) and the rectangle willow baskets. I have also found that my…[Read more]

With Louie and Lola, they had their initial speed date and got along fine, then bonding starting in one of our bathrooms that was nice and neutral then moving into semi-neutral, slowly expanding their space so they were somewhat forced to be in each other’s presence. Towards the end of securing their bond, I had them free roam in our room together…[Read more]

It’s true you would want to be extra certain that they couldn’t get to each other (storage cube grid work really well for making temporary housing/pens… especially the fine mesh ones which can be used as “nose guards” that they can’t nip through). But I’m sure whatever works best for you will be fine. I was just imagining when you eventually get…[Read more]

I honestly think this might be the cause of the weepy eye. Because the liquid is sticky that’s coming out of the bump and it’s the same consistency and stickiness as before. Might be a pimple. Going to vet tomorrow so will update you guys 😉

I thought of that originally but I was concerned with the idea of leaving them alone since the rabbit room is on a separate floor from my bedroom. Since the rabbit room is already bunny’s territory as she’s lived in there for 3 years. But If that is still considered the best way to go then I will definitely do that.

It’s on top of the skin not under

No not that cause it’s up farther

Many rescues also have a good sense of whether dogs are good with cats. So if they know a dog is good with cats that might be a good starting point!

Meibomian cyst maybe? http://www.medirabbit.com/EN/Eye_diseases/Disorder/Meib/Meib_en.htm

It might be better to set them up side by side in the rabbit room, and then use the bedroom as a space for bonding sessions, as that sounds pretty neutral?

Your current bun might be annoyed at first, but part of the process will be her getting used to another bun being in “her” turf.

Totally agree Pinkiemarie! My cat is never allowed to lay a paw on the buns (squirt bottle is essential) but they are definitely allowed to boss him around if he gets in their space!

I also have to be aware of why types of hides I give them and where I put them. At one point I got a hide for the buns but my cat just saw it as a perfect place to…[Read more]

She’s going to the vet tomorrow anyways
