Thanks for the feedback. To be honest after talking to the vet I was really set on rehoming her because I thought it was in her best interest. But talking to the rescue totally changed my mind and made me think it was in her best interest to keep her 🙁 maybe I should have called more than one rescue. Sadly where I am.now I do not think its at all…[Read more]

Thanks for your thoughts Wick! It’s hard to say what has worked and what hasn’t. Certain situations had less fighting (like the short bathtub sessions), but then the bunnies weren’t behaving normally. So hard to say. Longer sessions at the shelter were OK. Some scuffles, some ignoring. Nothing crazy but lots of intervention needed from me. My…[Read more]

Bonnie sounds like Wick with the defensive-offense.
What Wick lacked which Bonnie has is the strength to actually create a nip-impact, which I’m sure opens the opportunity to solidify the fearful aggression as more serious.

Honestly I am unsure what the progression or steps have been so far, but what are your thoughts on short or longer sessions…[Read more]

Indeed, patience. Also remember that as you may observe progress, there may be better and worse days, and that could be from her end, not anything you might be doing particularly wrong. When I first got my Fable, in a somewhat humorous fashion, she would always be at the furthest side of the room possible from me. I would move somewhere (not…[Read more]

Definitely can simply be an individual difference. When there’s a change within an individual, like a rabbit who used to be really energetic suddenly turns sluggish, that for me is more worrying.

In my pair, the bigger rabbit is absolutely more energetic. She flops, binkies, and zoomies several times a day. It’s wild. The small dwarf is probably…[Read more]

Untreated cotton is considered “safe” as long as the rabbit isn’t regularly consuming it. I know many people opt for fleece stuff as well because rabbits tend to chew but not eat it (my observation from my Fable, who is a big chewer as well). I don’t know if fleece is specifically OK to break down in their stomach or not, but I know cotton is…[Read more]

You can try bribing me and see if that fixes the problem. Just throwing that out there? Outside that, I agree with Dana’s work around.

Also, you can “Copy” and “Paste” images into posts I believe, so there’s a chance if you just right click your photo and “Ctrl V” into a reply box, it’ll upload no problem.

As such, please observe this random…[Read more]

We are working on it! It seems to be a glitch where certain people can post pictures and others can’t. If you add the picture to your profile, it should show up in your media library and you would be able to add it from there.

Also, going to move this thread to “technical stuff”.

Thank you so much, Dana and Bam! I’m going to schedule a meeting with her vet as soon as possible! Thanks again! 🙂

Thanks guys! They usually get time out in the morning, afternoon, and mostly at night.

My Pinky is also under 2 years old and he’s crazy but doesn’t zoom around. Mine also explore calmly lol. Maybe they just don’t feel the need to run a million miles an hour. Muffin explores and hops around a bit then takes a break by flopping on the floor to sl…[Read more]

Thank you Bam. Yeah I thought it must be fine since they groom their fur and eat a tiny bit anyway. The plastic just worries me!

LOL not sure how they find plastic so appealing to munch on.

He’s still eating and drinking so I’ll just keep an eye on him.

Most vets want to spay a girl bun at 6 months or so, because they’re too tiny until then -as Dana says, at 2 months of age she would not have been spayed.

Typical puberty behaviors in a bun is pee- and poopmarking, defending territory (aka cage aggression), mood swings and also more direct sexual behaviours such as courtship (often in the form of…[Read more]
