Aww… poor Dawn. 🙁

The underlying reason for the seizures is important. You can treat the symptoms, but if the cause is something treatable then you would want to do that as well. She is a dwarf breed, which are more susceptible to seizures. But if the cause was genetic, you would have thought you would have witnessed a seizure before now. Does…[Read more]

Wanted to give a little update, this release from the Oregon Department of Agriculture mentions that:

“Currently, a US manufacturer is working with a University to develop a domestic, FDA approved, new-generation vaccine for RHDV. The vaccine would not require the use of live rabbits for vaccine production and could be scaled up much easier. Once…[Read more]

@Moonlightbunny Probably not at this time, but it’s something to keep an eye on, and if you feed veggies grown in CA or Mexico that should be taken into account. Since it has become endemic in the US it will likely end up in Canada eventually, but in Australia it spread a lot more rapidly in arid regions, so it’s unclear how long it will take to…[Read more]

It does sound like puberty. It also sounds like if her pen is “her” space, then going straight into the pen might be frightening to her and trigger her to be territorial. Most buns like having a space that is just “theirs”, that don’t mess with or try to “get” them while they are in (unless needed of course). Rather than going into the pen with…[Read more]

That’s great!

I agree. That sounds like a lot of oats. Too much could cause GI problems. If you can get her to eat more pellets, even if they are timothy, that would be better. Do you know what the ingredients of these pellets are? Most rabbits like pellets. I’m wondering if these aren’t very tasty.

Louiethebunny,

yes, she is a mini lop. I wasn’t aware they matured faster. thank you!! me and this little lady will just have to stick it out a few more months.

I live in Canada. Do I need to be concerned about my rabbits getting this?

@HipHopBunny Joey is a big big girl and I was surprised she liked a tiny little dude.

@LBJ10 WOOOO! It’s been a minute since I had 2 bunnies.

@Louiethebunny he does have some nice sized peepers. Lol.

@DanaNM He’s smaller than he looks. He fits in my hand and to the end of my wrist. I’ve never had such a tiny bun!

@Bam Thank you!

Ben just happened to have a nail trim scheduled today and I’m happy to report that the Dr listened to his tummy, which was nice and gurgly, and also examined his teeth and they were good. She’s an exotic specialist so I feel very much better now 🙂

Hmmmmm, does this happen at your own home, or does he go over to spend the night with the pet sitter?

Rabbits are very scent oriented. I’m wondering if the care-giver might smell like a dog, or they may just smell very different. It sounds fear based to me, since it happens when he is alone. Also, is your home very quiet when you are gone? Maybe…[Read more]

It is a desk with a rolling desk chair and I have a dog crate set up at the end. He has run of the whole room but I keep his litter box, food dish etc in it. I uploaded a photo to Pinterest here’s the link https://pin.it/3ToV5Tq.

Oh my goodness, so much precious! Congrats on the adoption @Sonn!

Good luck with the speed dating @LouietheBunny! Would love to hear your experiences with it. & of course take & share pics of the dates! 😀

I have a climber, but he isn’t very brave when it comes to hoping anything higher than a foot. So I have just learned to move things up, ideally on stools with narrow legs so that he has nothing to help him climb up. If that doesn’t work I put a fence around it. I am trying to figure out how he is climbing into a desk though. Can you describe your…[Read more]

Oh. I didn’t realize that. Thanks a lot. I will definitely get some of those too.

Fingers crossed it goes well!
