You sure have been through quite the time! 😮

I’m currently in the bonding process as well, with my three lovely ladies. 🙂 A bit of a back-story on us: Silver is dominant, and bonded to OB. They both will sometimes bully Smokey, still working out the kinks.

I started a thread called “Bungled Bonding Updates” where some members have responded…[Read more]

No I don’t have infant gas drops, but I’ll look into it. Yes he does let me massage his tummy. I’ve also been try to see where I can take him for help. I dont an animal hospital that takes rabbits.

While I was working yesterday, my significant other ended up having to set up the X Pen again and put Mango in it by herself with all her necessities.  He also let her out over night… and this morning I ended up putting her back in the pen with Kiwi so she could have her “cool aunt” buddy.  Kiwi and Mango got fed in the pen while Binky and S…[Read more]

Do you have some infant gas drops at home or adult de-gas capsules? Any of those that contain simethicone? Sometime this will help if a rabbit has gaseous tummy. The constant moving & laying back down sounds like he does have some discomfort. Will he let you massage the tummy?

Do you have an out of hours vet you could take him too?

Tell Hazel that I’ve got another one for her 😛

Here’s Esther lounging in the same spot under my desk cleaning her face lol

Ok, that’s good to know. I also realized it could be their litter. I put a little bit of that white fluffy paper bedding in their litter boxes. I’ll try to look more closely at it next time.

Thanks!

Great news!

Thank you everyone. After giving drops there seems to be an improvement in peeing and pooping. He is trying to eat on his own.

Any simethicone baby gasdrops will do. There are several brands varying in strength from 20 mg/ml to 100 mg/ml. Any of them will do, you can’t accidentally overdose on simethicone baby gas drops. Give 1-2 ml per hour for the first 3 hours, then once per 2 hours. You should see improvement within 20-30 mins if it is gas.

To help the gas get out,…[Read more]

Signs of megacolon appear in these individuals when they are young, then it progresses to more severe symptoms as they get older. I’ve never heard of symptoms suddenly arising at 3-4 years of age. As Dana said, they are unable to maintain an ideal weight because their bodies cannot absorb nutrients properly. Their body wastes away and they lose…[Read more]

YAY! I told you, Hazel, they were coming! 😛 What a cutie! Queen of the house already, eh? Letting you pet her? Oh, I am so jealous! Took my ladies a while! (well, Smokey was always sweet 😉 ) I love her set-up! The cardboard house is adorable! Oooooh, way too cute! Of course, now that Hazel’s seen them, she wants more, a lot more, so, haha, she…[Read more]

These are some pics from her exploring today! It’s so weird to think that she’s only been here for around 24 hours! She’s already so comfortable and runs right up to the front of the pen whenever I come into the room.

I’m worried about them bullying Smokey. 🙁 Even now they’ll chase her around the room. 😥 Poor Smokey. I haven’t been as good about stress bonding them as I should be, for they seem to be treating her decently, although, they still will chase her sometimes. I don’t know why though! She’s kind to them, doesn’t care about the hierarchy, and…[Read more]

Thank you everyone.  Yes it looks like gas formed. After x ray again at another vet, was able to find it. which one is the best gas drop reliefs and gut stimulant in case for future purposes ?

Thanks guys! I’m gonna call the vets in my area tomorrow and see if anyone actually specializes in rabbits. And also see if they are accepting new patients. I just want the best for them.

And I will write fipronil down as a no-no. If there’s any other bad ingredients, let me know!
