@HipHopBunny, heh Italy’s been a wild ride this year but we’re pretty hard to destroy >D Store is too far, the “buns” would make my milk go bad ahahah I do wanna get a leash and ‘walk’ them to the park one day looool

if you think about it, getting a pet you really wanted to have is a bit like having a kid of your own… so I think your anxiety is justified for now. Give yourself (and the bun) time to get used to each other, learn each other’s patterns. Once you’ll get to know the bun better, you’ll gain confidence and will feel more at ease.

just a tip: if…[Read more]

Thanks pinkiemarie – that’s good to know!.  He’s been here in my home for the last 3 months and was in the shelter previously for a while.  I previously had a post here on his soft stools so no need to suggest dietary changes – usually the recommendation for intermittent soft stools is hay only, but considering that Snowball eats for most of the d…[Read more]

My bunnies eat a lot but they definitely have a good chunk of the day when they’re just sleeping or playing. I agree that he may be eating slowly, and if he was not fed enough at his prior home he might also be taking advantage of theore generous food portions at your house to bulk up a little.  I’m not sure what’s up with his soft stools so I’m…[Read more]

Oh also if it makes a difference her nose isn’t usually moving when she does it, so I’m pretty sure she’s sleeping. Though she did do it when she was playing with her toys earlier so … ?

I saw some old posts of someone else asking how to use it. One of the mods said 0.50ml once every hour for three hours. Since this one has 40mg of Simethicone. So that would be 1.5ml today. Do I need to give him a meal with it?

Ouch! 🙁 I take back my complaints on it being hot here! 😆 I prefer the cold to the heat, 80 degrees is too warm for me! 😆 Hopefully, you have something to keep you cool in there! LOL! Glad Bubbles is doing better, even if so in a destructive way! 😛

I was also experiencing a lot of water spills with my rabbit and so I use what was previously a clear plastic top from one of the snacks I usually buy!  It works well because it also has a bit of a rim to it.  That being said, my bun doesn’t chew so that wasn’t a concern.  I agree with Dana though, a hard plastic lunch tray (they have smaller si…[Read more]

When taking your rabbit’s temperature, how do you ensure that your rabbit doesn’t go into a trance?  I was watching the Howcast video again linked above and previously tried to take Snowball’s temperature similarly (in a more C-shape way than just specifically on his back), but he did get very still in that position and had wide eyes.  I want to e…[Read more]

Thanks. Can you check my recent post on the drops I got? I wanna know if they’re safe. Also I took a photo from digging in his litter box and there’s a bunch of these little white seeds in and on the poops. Something from the farm hay? And I could’ve sworn I saw some double poops earlier. Muffins poops don’t have the seeds on it.

Update: Stress-bonding. Silver and Smokey at first were very active. Aaaaaaaand, bouncing all over the place. 🙁 I finally got them calmed down and they flopped. 🙂 Made some progress. Right now I’m doing 30-minute sessions with them. We definitely have a lot more of this ahead of us, the sessions did not go as smoothly as I hoped. 😐 I think…[Read more]

And do I still give 1ml once every hour for 3 hours today? Not sure cause it says not to exceed 1.5ml in 24 hours.

It does sound like some sort of discomfort, and if he was eating hay last night, then gas sounds more likely!

Thank you! He was enjoying the hay last night. I picked up some Timothy hay from the store in case that’s the issue. I mixed some into the new hay. He got excited when he heard the bag but when I put it in he didn’t eat it.

I tried to get him to come out and run around to see if it would help. He only came out because I bribed him with pel…[Read more]

I opted to set up a pen in a completely different area of the shelter, that was more quiet, very large, and new to all three buns. We did about a 2 hour session yesterday and I think it was pretty good! Nothing groundbreaking, but it seems they are getting better at communicating. Bonnie mounted Bun Jovi a few times and he looked VERY confused.…[Read more]

I think the stressing will help too. Litter boxes can be a tough one! Are you using a brand new huge one? I usually don’t even introduce a box until well into the marathon when they seem pretty much bonded, and one of my metrics of “yep, I think they are bonded” is when they can share the litter box without issue (or share two that are next to…[Read more]
