Hello and thank you for the replies.

Apologies for the double.

I called yesterday and the vet is getting him in tomorrow for a general exam. Starting to feel a little worried because his ears are cooler than usual (not cold, just cooler) which I know is a sign he is not feeling his best. So, I need to keep him eating and hydrated until then.

Hi Z&F, and welcome to BB!

I’m sorry there wasn’t an updated welcome thread, so please feel free to make a new topic introducing your rabbits! Sometimes pictures are glitchy, so you can always provide links as well.

Hi Everyone! Super excited to say hi!! I just joined the forum and Zion and Fuzzy are here to say Hi as well!

Zion is a small 3lb part Lionhead lol, while Fuzzy is a 4lb black lop ear~

You can give them 1 large litter box or two. My buns have two but they often just sit in the same one together. 🙂

Remind me, is he starting to have mobility issues? I’m wondering if EC could be at play here (the peeing everywhere can be a symptom). Bun Jovi was always a big humper and then we learned later that he did have EC, so I’m not sure if that was part of the story. It could be hormonal but I would look to a urinary issue first, as peeing everywhere…[Read more]

The only lettuce to avoid is iceberg, so I would go off of the shape and growth form. If it doesn’t look like iceberg, then it should be safe to feed.  My quick googling of “green ice lettuce” does look very similar to “green leaf lettuce” so it’s probably the same or very similar.

I can definitely give it a try 😊 I would try it on a Friday night that way if my husband wakes up he could sleep in.

would 1 litter box be enough?

Your previous post is here  and there are replies to it: https://binkybunny.com/forums/topic/possible-dental-issue-in-senior-rabbit/

I’m not an expert but I did some research and green ice lettuce appears safe as does Boston lettuce but again I’m not an expert so hopefully more experienced people can help you out.

Okay awesome, thanks so much everyone. I’ve put two memory foam bath mats under the pee mats for now until the foam gets here. My only issue is with his litter box now and the fact that he lays in there a lot. I put the grate back in and surely that’s not too good for his feet either. :/ But neither is sitting in his mushy poops. The daily…[Read more]

Yes, I think 2 inches would be too squishy. You want there to be cushion, but not so squishy that he has trouble moving around.

1in should be fine. 2in would probably be too deep and will impair movement in a different way. Fabric stores are usually the best places for this kind of purchase as you can get rolls of fleece and memory foam in bulk, haha.

Ohh wow I actually found a shop that sells big rolls of memory foam for cheap, should I get 1 inch or 2 inch thickness?

Hmm okay, I’m gonna have to experiment with what works. I found a 58″ x 24″ memory foam bath mat for only $18 on amazon, would that work or are those still too thin and not cushiony enough?

Also, apparently he is leaving actual cecotropes because I just saw a little pile in his litterbox. I started him on benebac probiotics just to see if it…[Read more]

I hope this reply works this time…your buns are so cute! (But aren’t all bunnies cute?) I have a bit of a soft spot for REW’s. My bun Thumper is a kind of REW, if you take his picture without flash his eyes will show up as red but if flash is on and you get a picture of his eyes they’ll appear blue.
