That’s awesome you want to help this rabbit!
Back in February someone abandoned two rabbits and they lived between my backyard and some neighbors. At the time I didn’t know anything about rabbits so I thought they would be safe. Unfortunately one of the rabbits didn’t make it (the black and white one in my profile pic)  and they were only out th…[Read more]

I just wanted to pop in and say CONGRATS!!

and personally I do multiples of stuff for one bun, especially with water as I want to make sure if it gets knocked over or stuff tossed in it he has another source if I don’t notice right off. But I don’t think it’s critical, just what has worked for me.

My vet has not tested for that yet. Based on his history/tests, he thinks that is unlikely, he wants to see him before he decides what is next. He has an appointment on Tuesday.

Thank you so much, everyone!  Teddy and I really appreciate it.  Bam, they really could be brothers!!  I almost thought you had posted a picture of Teddy.  I love the name Vilde!

DanaNM, hearing about Bun Jovi coming back from the bunny sitter’s house with lipstick all over him made my day.  😆  That’s the cutest!!  He sounds like a wonderfu…[Read more]

My money is on Peter being the dominant one, for you haven’t seen Benji nipping or chasing have you? I don’t know, you could keep them together, but I would be wary, and watch them closely. Sorry if this wasn’t a satisfying answer. <3

Also, I was wondering how you can tell which rabbit is the dominant one?

Yes, they are neutered. How can I find the template? I looked, but I can’t find it.

Yes, only chasing.

@Moonlightbunny66 LOL 😆 They sure do, don’t they? It might give him more space to poop in, but hopefully, that will stop the scratching. Keep us posted!

@HipHopBunny Thank you! Yeah maybe it will get better once their hormones cool down. I’ll see if I can expand it a bit. But that might just give him more space to poop in lol. Once I rabbit proof more, they’ll be allowed out longer. They got the taste of freedom and wanted more!

Ouch! Sounds like Pinky is going to be giving you a LOT of trouble! I’m guessing that the poop and pee were because he smelled Muffin, and the cage biting was because he wanted more time outside. You said he was neutered about two weeks ago? It takes around a month for hormones to officially drain out, so hopefully, he will settle down then.

Thank you so much for the detailed feedback. There is much information on food but I’ve hardly found information on water intake.

Since I’ve put out the bowl of water they’ve had lots to drink. I’m so relieved. Thank you!!

He is taken to a rabbit specialist and I have kept in close contact with the shelter manager. I am now a bit concerned for my girls. Hopefully my vet gets back to me. I am willing to try anything to get him better.

Thank you for your reply! 🙂 They are all one year old. One of my friends suggested that is could be a pulled muscle? Could this have happened during a binky? I also notice, that one leg sticks out more than the other. I don’t know which is the normal one, for one sticks out, and the other is smooth so you can’t see the hump for the leg. Is it…[Read more]

Thanks for the list! Those are all antibiotics, and benebac is a probiotic to counter the effects of antibiotics on the gut. Antibiotics would be the correct treatment for a UTI, but since the vet has tried 3 different antibiotics, and none of them have worked it’s worth considering if it’s actually a different issue.

It doesn’t look like he has…[Read more]

Griff was first given SMZ TMP for 10 days. Enrofloxacian for 14 days and than a second round for 21 days. Finally he was give Orbax for 28 days. Bene-bac was also given with the meds.

I emailed my vet to see if he was ever tested for e. cuniculi. But I know we never talked about that specifically.

Has he been checked or treated for EC (e. cuniculi)? EC is a parasite that many rabbits are born with, and can often cause, among other things (such as head tilt), kidney problems which show up as excessive peeing, lack of control over where they pee, drinking excessively, and a constantly damp bum and legs.

The problem with EC tests is that they…[Read more]

I’ve been wanting to swap pens as well to see if that may also help with getting use to eachothers smells but patches would probably try to hop out of velvets pen. Right now I have a sheet over her pen and she doesnt attempt to jump out. I bought some thinner pieces of wood to put between patches pen and one of the boys pen (remember i swap…[Read more]
