Activity

I would also add that there could be non-ec causes of sneezing/discharge, so trying a different antibiotic can be worth exploring. I also would say that going 4 weeks without increased severity in the sneezing/discharge is notable. My Wick similarly did not improve on Baytril, but when we stopped it, it got worse. That is just one case example,…[Read more]

A rabbit that’s very interested in digging would probably dig in pebbles too, but it would be a lot less nice and much harder on the paws. You could perhaps cover part of the grass with metal netting (the grass will soon grow through so its ok to have a wire bottom run if its placed in direct contact with the grass), and keep a little bit free for…[Read more]

Update : Milo completed the shots and genital region appears to be a lot better, he even had interested in his stuffed toy for atleast one day. Unfortunately the Baytril he has been taking for four weeks hasn’t seemed to make any huge improvements. He is still sneezing/ has white snot in one side of his nostril, and some tear/red stained areas of…[Read more]

The only thing I can think of that would really work would be to secure a piece of wire mesh over the sod, so the grass could poke up through it but they couldn’t dig.

But… digging is a very enriching activity for bunnies, and I think one of the benefits of giving them outdoor access. So maybe they would be happier if allowed to dig?

These things happen, sometimes ya just never know! Lops can be more prone to ear issues as well.

They are all fine, go to town. 🙂

Thank you so much! I can’t imagine why he’d be stressed :/ he’s extremely spoiled lol but yes I’m anxious to see what the vet says.

Agree with Wick 100%. Definitely don’t allow any interaction until they are both castrated. Mating can occur in a flash. Also don’t underestimate how hard he will try to get to her… he will likely try very hard! So make sure their areas are very secure.

I’m very sorry for your loss. 🙁 It sounds like something very serious was wrong, so please don’t beat yourself up.

A lot (maybe most) bunnies have a low level of mites that never cause problems. Then sometimes they have a flair up, possibly due to stress or other impacts on the immune system.

It could also be an ear infection. Either way the vet should be able to straighten things out easily. 🙂

It sounds like, at this time, neither of them are fixed, in which case you should not let them out together to avoid unexpected pregnancies. It does not take long and rabbits are very wired to mate and protect, so you want to make sure they are separated while both are not fixed.

There is a hormonal spike following a neuter, and typically it’s…[Read more]

You can attempt… it’s a lot of work though. I think I was only lucky because my spayed flemmie has a generally good tempermant. After multiple sessions of car bonding, they finally got along. Very risky and LOTS of supervision or working around stuff.

Thank you so much for sharing!

I’ve had him for about 7 months the & itching started a little over 2 weeks ago :/ he’s an indoor bun too so I really don’t know where he could’ve gotten mites from.

I’m unable to find out the reason, we fed him critical care before taking to vet as we know he will be stressed and won’t eat for sometime after coming from clinic. He had fever & we got shots for it , that’s it   after coming home he didn’t eat anything , whole night he was roaming around the room,  we tried many ways to feed him but no use,  the…[Read more]

Yes, I looked at it closer and it was a small field mouse. It had seemingly been dead for a while and I buy my hay from a farm so I think it’s was just in the bale when I bought it.

Definitely get rid of the beds (at least temporarily). Some bunnies just cannot have soft things. Luckily most bunnies actually like laying on hard surfaces.

I think I would try confining them to a smaller space or their pen at night for a while and see if that helps. Are the poops scattered around in piles or singles? If singles that indicates…[Read more]
