Wick & Fable replied to the topic Rabbit with excessive water consumption/ Weight loss in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 4 months ago
I’m sorry to read about everything you and your rabbit are going through. It is clear you care so much and are not hesitant in taking action to figure out how to help him. I can’t offer knowledge from experience with the medical conditions you describe specifically, but in terms of working with a rabbit mystery, I can relate.
I have found it…[Read more]

Thank you very much for your response, it definitely provides me with some more solutions I can present to my vet.
He has been eating the same amount of hay I believe. Lately he likes the stems more than anything else, teeth don’t seem to bother him but anyway, I would like to get him x-rayed next time so we can check for any molar issues, just…[Read more]

HipHopBunny replied to the topic TICKS in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 4 months ago
Has your bun been out in the dirt lately? Dirt can carry the ticks. You should take your rabbit to a vet for treatment, for ticks can give health issues to your rabbit. Groom your bun daily, if you come across a tick, remove it with some tweezers. Try to get rid of them before the ticks have had their fill, in some cases rabbits get anemia. Ticks…[Read more]

Hello everyone! 😀
My name’s Khadijah and i’m a first time bunny mom to Tybalt (if you’re a fan of classic literature then you know where his name comes from haha) – he’s a VM chocolate tort mini lop and is the absolute love of my life!

Hi! For the last 3 days (not including pre-bonding) we have been working to bond our spayed female (Pebbles) with a neutered male rescue bunny we have ‘on trial’ (Nutmeg). Pebbles was initially very timid however after today’s fully supervised bonding (9.5 hours in neutral territory – after having no aggression from previous shorter sessi…[Read more]

Hi, I’m new here and I’m not sure if I am posting in the right space. I have a 7 year old rabbit who is not neutered (it’s too risky to do it now) so getting him a companion is not an option. He is free roam throughout the house, and has one room with most of his things where he can play and eat etc. We have given him a variety of toys (toss…[Read more]

I would feed her critical care like Enzo the Bunny says, it’s a good way to get her nutrients if she won’t until you find out how to help her. It sounds like she wants to eat, but can’t, so it could be a dental problem, hurting teeth stop rabbits from eating. Unfortunately, if she isn’t eating or pooping she could be going into g.i. stasis. If she…[Read more]

hey, I am not sure what is wrong with your bun mine is recovering from gi stasis right now and he had similar signs but if the vet checked her she probably doesn’t have gi stasis maybe ask your vet about that. Is she drinking water? you could try giving her critical care if you have some on hand to get something in her stomach. Hope she is ok!

I am very worried about my rabbit, Hunny Nugget (lives indoors, spayed, three-year-old lionhead mix). For the past few days, she has not been eating with her usual vigor. Hunny used to practically inhale everything we gave her, but now we’re lucky if she even gives her hay or greens a nibble. If Hunny does put any food in her mouth, she seems to…[Read more]

Ashley Rose replied to the topic Help! Difficult bonding! in the forum BONDING 6 years, 4 months ago
Thought I would give you a follow up! I decided to do a week (possibly longer) of 24/7 bonding. It’s been a little longer than a day of them being in a neutral room in an X-pen together. I have a new big litterbox for the both of them to share along with a water bowl and pellets/veggies that get sprinkled on the floor rather than bowls. The…[Read more]

Bam replied to the topic Rabbit with excessive water consumption/ Weight loss in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 4 months ago
I’m so sorry you are going through this. I have a bun that had trouble keeping weight on due to a serious dental problem. It didnt cause him to lose his appetite until it became acute. Have you had his molars checked? It’s not something you can do yourself, due to the anatomy of the rabbit oral cavity, a vet needs to look with an otoscope. Skull…[Read more]

He is about 5 or 6 months, I noticed he is behaving like this at strange times of the day. I don’t handle him much, just a few pets here and there when he comes close and wants attention. I’ve only had him about a month, and don’t want to be too touchy. Today, I think I realized the extra frightened behavior. Right next door, very close nearby,…[Read more]

Louiethebunny replied to the topic Scared my bunny is underweight? in the forum DIET & CARE 6 years, 4 months ago
My mom and I had been worried about my bun being underweight too, and now reading this thread, I’m going to be feeding my bun just a little more pellets until he reaches his max growth. He should grow about two more pounds, so I’ll give him more alfalfa pellets until then.
