That sounds like good progress!
In my experience when things improve after 24 hours marathoning you are on the right track. 🙂

DanaNM replied to the topic Is it possible for buns who originally hate eachother to eventually get along? in the forum BONDING 6 years, 3 months ago
Gotcha. Yes hopefully a slow and steady approach of building trust and just giving them more time together will help them get there!

DanaNM replied to the topic Bonding 2 (spayed) female rabbits: mounting in the forum BONDING 6 years, 3 months ago
If Moaxie doesn’t mind the humping, then it’s fine! It will likely subside over time as well. Is the nipping associated with the mounting? Bunnies will often nip before they mount. As long as it’s not hard (no fur being pulled) and Moaxie isn’t bothered by it, it’s another thing to just monitor. Bunnies do nip lightly to communicate.
Sounds like…[Read more]

DanaNM replied to the topic Why is my Medically Healthy Rabbit not Eating or Pooping? in the forum BEHAVIOR 6 years, 3 months ago
Glad she went in for a trim! The loud clicking you hear is a symptom of pain (a different type of tooth grinding). Once her teeth are done just keep offering her lots of wet fresh greens to keep her hydrated and keep things moving, and give critical care if she’s not eating on her own! Dental and GI problems often go hand in hand (there is a…[Read more]

<p class=”_1qeIAgB0cPwnLhDF9XSiJM”>UPDATE: Hunny went back to the vet today. Her teeth were examined more thoroughly, and the vet decided as a start her lower molars need to be trimmed. Hunny should be undergoing the procedure as I type this. Please pray for her! Hopefully this fixes the problem…</p> -
Louiethebunny replied to the topic how did you convince your parents to get a bun? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 3 months ago
I agree @wilburbunny, my dad was worried it was just a “project” I wanted because we are on lockdown. For my mom, I showed her lots of bunnies every day and she slowly fell in love, and even though she says she doesn’t want to take care of my Louie, every day she comes downstairs to visit and play with him.

Hantero replied to the topic Rabbit with excessive water consumption/ Weight loss in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 3 months ago
The fur is thinning specially in the back. He doesn’t have bald patches, but the hair does not seem to be growing back at all.
I asked the technician who did the ultrasound and he said it is difficult to check the testicles, I might ask the veterinarian on our next appointment about that.
I will definitely mention about Addison’s and Cushings,…[Read more]

HipHopBunny replied to the topic My three female rabbits are not getting along, what should I do? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 3 months ago
Good morning! When I went to check in on OB her cage is a mess, but she looks happy and is gathering materials for her ‘nest’ do I clean her cage? Or would that stress her out?
Thank you!

Here is a links to info about Addison’s and Cushings in pets. Both conditions are due to malfunctioning of the adrenal glands:

Wilburbunny replied to the topic how did you convince your parents to get a bun? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 3 months ago
Don’t wait until you find another bun you really like because your parents will probably need more of a heads up. Unless your parents are very different then mine were, I would start get the idea in their heads. Plus, this will show your parents that you really have put in the time, effort and are really dedicated to getting this bun. You d…[Read more]

Just a quick note first: Â the subject of intentional breeding is not allowed for discussion on the forum. Please see our Forum Rules and guideline for more in this.
The humping behaviour will probably continue and the younger one could start doing it also as she matured. They might trigger some pseudo-pregnancy in each other aka false…[Read more]

Q8bunny replied to the topic PLEASE HELP in the forum BEHAVIOR 6 years, 3 months ago
Hi Koala,
Spaying is actually recommended not only to improve behaviours like mounting and litter habits, but because it greatly reduces the very high incidence of reproductive cancers in rabbits (especially in females).
Also, you may not be aware of this yet, but on this forum we do not condone breeding or discussions about intentional breeding…[Read more]

Bam replied to the topic PLEASE HELP in the forum BEHAVIOR 6 years, 3 months ago
They won’t stop if you keep them intact. They may not even stop if they get de-sexed late, because by then it has become a habit. The intensity in the jumping can decrease with age, but they wont form a reliable bond.
Discussions about intentional breeding are prohibited by the forum’s rules, so I won’t go into that. If you are intent on keeping…[Read more]
