pinkiemarie started the topic Does this look like a catact? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 2 years, 4 months ago
I am rabbit sitting and immediately noticed that one eye only looks like this. I texted my friend to see if it always looks like this because she hasn’t mentioned it. It doesn’t seem irritated or like it’s runny or anything. There are no emergency vets here that take rabbits on the weekend so I’m trying to decide whether I need to call the regular…[Read more]

update: i just got back from the vet and they said that she seems healthy. they said there can be many different causes for a seizure, one being E cuniculi, so they gave me some panacur to give her once a day for a while just in case she has it even though they don’t see any other symptoms of it. they also gave me another medicine to give her if s…[Read more]

I agree it sounds like a seizure and the willow is probably unrelated! Keep us posted on what the vet thinks! The first thing that comes to mind is EC, which is treatable!

This definitely sounds like a seizure. At least from what you’re describing anyway. I think the willow and seizure are just a coincidence though. I’m glad you’re on your way to the vet. Keep us updated on what’s going on!

About an hour ago my rabbit suddenly ran out of her hideout while she was napping and fell on her side and started flopping and twisting around and freaking out. I kept trying to pick her up but she was moving around so much I couldn’t get a good hold on her. Finally after like 10 or 15 seconds it ended and she seems to be able to walk fine now b…[Read more]

Are you planning to get her spayed? That should help a lot. It does sound like this is hormonal in nature based on her age but there could be some other things contributing.
Can you give some more details about her housing set-up, other pets in the house, and how you normally interact with her (handling, petting, etc)?

I’m very sorry you lost your rabbit. It is true that it’s important to spay female rabbits, but it seems you filled her life with love for as long as you were together.
Pets can’t be replaced. But we can open our hearts and homes to other pets. I think I understand what you mean about wanting to bond at the same time as you fear becoming close. I…[Read more]

@JaydenGirgi If your bun’s eye is red and has a white blob your bun needs to see a vet. There’s not much you can do yourself, I’m afraid.

Toulouse started the topic I still miss her in the forum RAINBOW BRIDGE 2 years, 4 months ago
It was March. My rabbit, a Dutch named Bluebelle, was five. I got her when I was twelve. I didn’t spay her. I didn’t know I was supposed to, and even after I started asking about it, family members assured me she was fine, there was no reason to, she was too old. I got her as a show rabbit for 4-H, but we were almost inseparable. She was alw…[Read more]

Until fairly recently, my english lop baby had been very sweet. She would occasionally bite and tug at clothes, but that was it, really. It feels worth mentioning that she is nearing the six month mark. She is my second rabbit—my first was a Dutch who was always incredibly friendly, so I have no experience with this. She has since become s…[Read more]

Mine lived on our enclosed porch with screen windows for the first year of their life. Where I live we have brutal winter and hot humid summers.
I brought them inside this past January and they live in part of my hallway and I have large dog crates for them which they love. They have full rein of the hallway which is really big from early morning…[Read more]

My rabbit is a two-year-old Netherland Dwarf, and recently his eye has turned red and has a white blob. What could it be, and how can I help her

Dmm1405 started the topic House rabbit chewing bars in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 2 years, 4 months ago
My rabbit who is about 10weeks old has very bizzare behaviour.
He’s a loving social happy bunny who gets fre roam of a bedroom when I get home from work for about 5 hours.
During his free roam time he will go into his open cage up to the top floor and chew his bars for a short while.
Any ideas why he does this?
His cage is open he has plenty…[Read more]

DanaNM replied to the topic Traveling 24 hours in car with my bunny over few days in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 2 years, 4 months ago
I drove cross country with my buns a couple years ago over about 6 days. I think our longest day was 9 hrs, and that was too long. 8 would be ok, but 6 would be better. We felt that around 6-8 hours was a good balance because you’re right that you don’t want the trip to take too long overall, but also you can’t push them too hard. The key is to…[Read more]

My impression on first read was that the porch area was more indoors than outdoors, but now it’s sounding more like it’s mostly outside? In a lot of places it’s pretty common for people to convert a shed into a bunny house. I would not keep them in the sunroom unless it’s fully enclosed. Raccoons, foxes, coyotes, owls, hawks, possoms, bobcats,…[Read more]

Oxbow makes good pellets overall. I believe this was discussed before and we concluded that the molasses was in such a small quantity that it shouldn’t be cause for concern.
