It could be any of those things. Maybe try a new batch of hay and some new veg (maybe even some different things like cilantro or parsley), and if that doesn’t work I think a vet visit is in order since it’s been two days already. You could also try offering some critical care mash on a plate or spoon and see if she eats that willingly.

My little guy, Blaze, binkies almost daily. He’s 2. Esther doesn’t binky nearly as often, but she does half-binkies and circles my feet in excitement at meal times lol.

Oh, wonderful! 😊

My rabbit doesnt binky often, but he is 8 years old, and older rabbits tend to binky less than young rabbits.

He just did it again LOL. I’m trying to catch it on video but I keep only getting it when he’s already in the air.

That might be an attempt to get water out. I’ve been told of studies that show rabbits drink less water out of a bottle than a bowl because more effort is required + neck strain in order to get water out of a bottle than just leaning over and drinking out of a bowl. Have you considered switching the bottle with a water bowl?

OK, if that’s the case then I would definitely bring up EC with the vet. Uveitis caused by EC is common in young rabbits and can appear in the absence of other symptoms.

Hi!

It’s not necessarily floating in his eye but I looked into uveitis as you suggested and it some what looks like that, just not as white. We scheduled an appointment with our vet for this friday. Thank you for your help!! 🙂

It’s hard to see detail in the picture. Is the red spot “floating” inside the eye? An eye injury could cause a subconjunctival hemorrhage (i.e. blood in the eye). Another possibility is uveitis.

Okay thank you so much for the help, I will schedule an appointment with our vet! 🙂

I would get it checked out by a vet. If it hasn’t changed for the past 3 weeks, that can be positive, though it can still be indicative of an underlying issue that needs to be treated or it is getting worse but in a way that can’t be perceived yet. Rabbits eyes can definitely get nicked by hay or other things accidentally, so it’s not necessarily…[Read more]

He’s had it for about 3 weeks and we haven’t had him checked by the vet yet because we aren’t sure if it’s serious. I have absolutely no idea what has caused it and when i tried doing research online for the possibilities nothing came up. Yes he’s eating and pooping normally. Thank you for replying!

How long has it been around for, and has it been checked by a vet yet? Do you have any idea what may have caused it? Also, is your rabbit eating/pooping normally?

To my knowledge, really any eye-related ailment really needs to be assessed by a rabbit-experienced vet to figure out the proper treatment and help the rabbit.

I’m so very sorry for your loss. It is extra horrible to lose a pet so abruptly. Its always hard when a pet passes, but the chock of sudden decline and death in a per is traumatising, as Dana says. I lost my bun Bam after just 2 days of illness.

You didn’t let her down when you chose to try and save her. If you hadn’t given her that chance, you…[Read more]
