UPDATE: now she’s eating her veggies like crazy… she’s so back and forth every single day would it make sense to put her down IF she stops eating veggies? I’m beside myself right now, I just lost an 18 year old cat. I can’t imagine losing her too this is beyond difficult and exhausting.

Yes! It was stressful but they were sooo cute!!

It’s so hard to avoid the temptation, I have backtracked on what I had in my head so many times out of being impatient lol.

It looks like mucus to me (but agree it’s hard to tell from the photo). Mucus in poop is not uncommon with stasis as it can occur when their is irritation to the gut lining. It should resolve as her stasis resolves.

What medications is she on?

I like The Bunny Lady!

Hmm… I can’t imagine grain mites sticking around if their food source is eliminated. Are you sure they are grain mites? They would be super tiny and hard to see…. like less than half a millimeter. Are they attracted to the bedding/litter you are using? What does your bunny have in his enclosure?

omg ducklings?!  that’s great you were able to help them!

And you’re right, at this point the damage to Coop and Bonnie’s bond has been done so might as well keep trying! I’m tempted to do some easy sessions this weekend with mine but I think i’m going to wait till they are settled with the side-by-side pens. Gotta take my own advice!

I can totally relate, I read all of that too. Well, it doesn’t hurt to try is what I’ve been thinking, if you’re ok with waiting and adjusting as you go. Maybe it just takes longer and more experimenting with different approaches. That also is the big reason I tried the unconventional, and very slow approach of doing the bonding sessions with a…[Read more]

Thank you! I am still really second guessing whether this is the best thing to do (or whether I should just go back to the way things were). There is a lot of discouraging info online about trios… 😕

I am planning a consult with a bonding person at the rescue here. I think getting an outside perspective on their behavior will be helpful.  It…[Read more]
