I remember there was an Italian lady who got a hefty fine for walking her turtle in a park during covid lockdown. Hopefully turtle-walking restrictions have been lifted now!

We’ve just had 2 days of the loveliest summer weather, we went swimming in the sea and kayaking on water so smooth it was like molten metal to look at. But today autumn…[Read more]

Rabbits don’t need a reason to eat strange things. Or maybe they do have their reasons, it’s just that us mere humans are too dumb to understand rabbit logic 🤣

I agree with Dana, a tiny piece is unlikely to cause trouble. The good thing about rabbits when they eat non-food items is that they tend to chew everything very well into tiny, tiny…[Read more]

Sometimes a bun who gets hay only will lose weight until a good weight is reached, and then it maintains this weight. It’s a very good method to get a rabbit to an ideal weight.

It’s very good to weigh your bun weekly and keep a weight diary! It’s very difficult to see fluctuations in body weight because they have so much fur, and fur density…[Read more]

Some buns are very picky with hay. ATM it’s not a good time to give buns fresh grass in many places on the USA where there’s been RVHD2 outbreaks. Hopefully the vaccine will be made available to all rabbit owners in the USA, as it has been for about 4 years now in Europe.

Intil then, its about trying different types of grass hays, (different cuts…[Read more]

Thank you. 🙂 He still seems like he’s in a bit of pain, but I’ll see what the vet thinks today. And he’s still only eating a little hay.

Thank you. I was thinking he’ll be okay.

Sounds like amazing progress!!

I think trying a 4-6 hour session (or longer if you’re up for it) would be fine at this point. Sometimes you might notice they get antsy after several hours. Having new toys to add to the pen at that time can help, or other things to chew (new sticks, fresh hay, some greens to share). If you do decide to cut the…[Read more]

That small of an amount shouldn’t be a problem.

I’m glad he is feeling better today. 🙂

Thank you! I’ll see if he will eat it off of food next time I have to use it then.

The bunny fart sounds cute LOL. Pinky seems a little better today. He got excited and stood up with his front paws on the bars when I got up, like usual! But still not his crazy little self yet. Not sure if he ate any hay during the night. I kept putting fresh h…[Read more]

I would encourage her to eat more hay.  I don’t know how many vegetables you are giving her. Maybe decrease the amount of veggies. Sending you and her good vibes.

@Hazel I used to hose myself down when I worked as a paramedic and sometimes it happened that I got assigned to cleaning duties (out in the sun… so many cars…) a girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do!

Here is an article on bladder sludge vs normal rabbit urine, with pictures. It’s from Medirabbit, a trusted source. Normal rabbit pee comes in many colors and there’s practically always some calcium deposit in it, because that’s how he healthy rabbit eliminates dietary calcium that it doesn’t need. Rabbit pee should never be colorless and…[Read more]

Teeth chopping typically only occurs when the bun is really uncomfortable. Then you have other signs of discomfort as well, such as refusal to take a treat, or you know sth is going on (recent spay/neuter or other surgical procedure). One of my buns couldvtooth chop if he had gas and you massage the tummy, which is a bit weird because at the same…[Read more]
