DanaNM replied to the topic Bonding new bun with territorial free roam girl in the forum BONDING 4 years ago
So, the short answer is I don’t think I would feel comfortable having them in the living room (where you have had problems before) on this short timeline. However, I do think if you moved them into the kitchen now, and they had zero problems until you left, then you could just have them live in the kitchen together during your trip. Be sure your…[Read more]

DanaNM replied to the topic IMPOSSIBLE to be litter trained. I've tried EVERYTHING. in the forum BEHAVIOR 4 years ago
If you have a tray over the bedding, he might not really be wanting to pee there. I would try using just carefresh with no screen or tray on top. Something about the soft texture really encourages buns to pee on it! Adding lots of fluffy hay in the box helps too.
And yes, knowing the situation with the other rabbit would be helpful. Unbonded buns…[Read more]

DanaNM replied to the topic All veggies causing digestive issues in the forum DIET & CARE 4 years ago
Unfortunately some bunnies have really sensitive tummies to greens and pellets, and it’s not clear why. One theory is that they didn’t develop the normal gut flora when they were weaned as babies.
The best thing to help promote good gut flora is lots of hay, so you are doing the right thing with giving a variety of hays. Some bunnies also do well…[Read more]

This sonds lovely, Ellie! Congrats!!!
I just found out yesterday there is one rabbit bonder in Sweden. I’m going to contact her for an estimate, because I really want to get Snoa a husbun. Since I failed so miserably with Bam and Yohio back in the day, I dont feel confident at all about bonding two rabbits. Especially since Snöa was surrendered…[Read more]

Bam replied to the topic Elder bun leg falling asleep? Intermittent mobility issues :/ in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 4 years ago
We never found anything that helped our Effi, sadly. Just the NSAiD, the occasional Gabapentin and several supplements (chondroitine, Glucoseaminoglukans, green mussels, msm, rosehip, omega 3 etc).
We decided to let her go after a long week when I could read nothing but pain and bewilderment in her eyes and face. She was a GSD though, so she had…[Read more]

Bunbuns started the topic Bonding new bun with territorial free roam girl in the forum BONDING 4 years ago
I’m wondering if there’s anything I could be doing differently for bonding my two buns on a tight timeline. I have a 3 year old girl (Mooney) who has free roamed for a few years in my living room and I’m trying to bond her with a new 2 year old male (Albus) who we adopted 2 months ago. He has been living in our guest bedroom with a baby gate…[Read more]

Thank you so much, Bam! I really appreciate your advice. Did you ever find anything else for Effi to help with standing and/or moving around? Teddy’s been spending more time lying down (head/shoulders up, back legs down and to the side), I think largely because he gets tired out from the arthritis and sustaining the difficult positions his le…[Read more]

Thank you! I gave her the antibiotics this morning and they were dissolving on my fingers while I was trying to give them to her, so I just washed my hands with soap and water before going to touch his hay, give him treats, and change his litter box in the morning. I assume any amount that would be on my hands after that would not do anything to harm him?

I dont know if a wheelchair would be any good, tbh. When my Effi’s back got really bad we got her a wheel chair. She never managed to use it much, her feet were also pointing at awkward angles and she was dragging one of them. I think wheelchairs are better for dogs that have dggenerative myelopathy, because that only causes weakness, no pain.…[Read more]

M&MBunnies started the topic Pron8ure/Protexin/ Probiotics everyday in the forum DIET & CARE 4 years ago
Hi all
I have a bunny very prone to stasis. Only eats hay and some grass. Can’t tolerate veggies or pellets.
I have been giving her Pron8ture (protexin) probiotic oil everyday for 2 months.
Is it ok to give this to her everyday? Will it make her gain weight? Are there any side effects of giving this to her daily?
Thanks

Bam replied to the topic Pee pad or no pee pad on un neutered bunny. in the forum BEHAVIOR 4 years ago
Hi AnnMarie003!
Not all rabbits spray. If your bun is going in his box, it’s fine not to have him neutered. Male rabbits can get testicular csncer, but it’s not very common and tends to occur in very old males.
Your could however start spraying (and poop marking) at any time, even after some years, and if he does, there’s pretty much nothing you…[Read more]

I just got a new Bunny, basically hes a rescue. I have no idea how old he is and I did not know that you were supposed to get them nudered. He is litterbox trained. My guess from the information I’ve gathered hes Around 9 months. Are things gonna get bad if I don’t get him neutered, do you have to get all bunnies neutered. I’m very new to this…[Read more]
