If their legs do look really dirty and it doesn’t just look like they’re tinged a light green from hay, you can try getting a damp washcloth and gently wiping off as much as you can, then patting them dry with a towel. Hair dryers should never be used regardless, and full-on baths should be avoided as well. As for their bodies, if it’s just tinge…[Read more]

Thank you for the replies. I never was under the impression that they were bonded. I guess I was just mistaken by assuming they had already gone through their hormone changes when they got fixed.

As for their providence, I’m not sure what the difference between wild and feril is. Their parents were “community” rabbits in my coworker’s…[Read more]

Usually from what I’ve seen when bunnies have gas, they don’t have an appetite for anything – not just hay – and they’ll lay in the loaf position for long periods of time but you say Louie is otherwise acting normal. Let us know if reducing his pellets works as that definitely could be the cause for less hay consumption.

I can hear them from my room (I live in an apartment). They didn’t fight last night, just stamping and chasing.

I’ve put them in the pen together today and she sprayed all over him again. So put her back in the cage for a while. When I let her out, the poops were literally falling out of her butt where she stood when she saw him!

I really hope I’m prepared enough, I will be checking Amazon to possibly try to get some Simethicone Baby Gas Drops and Critical Care. Thanks for the help!

Oh, I don’t have Critical Care… I don’t know if this actually works, but someone told me to use mashed up pellets?

Give it as much freedom as possible. Rabbits need to have the space to run, jump and play. If you must cage the rabbit, make the cage as large as possible and plan for as much time out as you can allow. As long as the rabbit has something hard to chew on to keep its teeth from overgrowth, and anything it can nudge, toss or dig at is desirable.

That’s great! If she keeps it up, you could probably go down to one CC feeding a day.

I brought up the possibility of a stroke before thinking nerve damage might be the issue. If the test comes back negative, I would ask the neurologist about that. Although unlikely, it is a possibility. Recovery from a stroke is extremely slow going, if the vet…[Read more]

You do seem well prepared! Simethicone baby gas drops is good to have in the bunny first aid kit in case of minor tummy upset. But that’s a minor thing, it seems you’ve been very thorough in your planning. I hope you’ll have a wonderful weekend!

thank you! yes i have made his pen smaller <3

thank you so much for your help! it’s day 2 now and I haven’t seen a single poop outside of his litterbox. thank you for helping!

@DanaNM – Thank you for understanding. I also hope we get some answers from this latest blood test. I had not heard of myasthenia gravis either, until the neurologist mentioned it.

@LBJ10 – I know you guys are just trying to help. I appreciate it, believe me! At this point, I have no choice but to do what my family thinks is best: trust the vets.…[Read more]

I would definitely place some fun hidey-houses around. Ramps to run up and down might be fun too! I also recommend tunnels, and lots and lots of toys.
