@Ellie what are you using as litter?

It is common for very young buns to have somewhat most poop. As you are saying, young buns should get nutritious food like alfalfa hay and pellets, to ensure normal growth and development. This means there will be a certain surplus of nutrients, and that surplus get pooped and peed out. It’s not sth to worry about as long as the poop isnt…[Read more]

They are so cute!!!!

Your rabbit is very cute! There seems to be some Himalayan in him, so he could be at least part California White? The Himalayan gene makes the ears, nose, toes and tail darker in winter (the gene responds to temperature). California White rabbits get fairly big, and have a reputation as being great pets due to their nice temperament.

Honestly it seems a bit unusual for such a drastic change to happen, especially if its a been at least a week since the stasis/vet visit scents have settled down. If it doesn’t stop, I would actually investigate with a vet whether the spay was unsuccessful and there may be something leftover that is now producing hormones (and this just happened…[Read more]

In order to provide a reliable breed ID, more clear photos and from multiple angles of your rabbit’s entire body is needed, and also your rabbit’s weight and age.

If you have not already, I highly recommend reviewing the RABBIT INFO section of this website to ensure you are providing great housing, diet, and overall care for your new rabbit.…[Read more]

Small Pet Select’s version of the pine pellets are much less fragrant, in my experience, and also if you haven’t tried already, you can try putting down a litter screen to prevent dust/direct exposure to the litter: https://www.reddit.com/r/Rabbits/comments/sh5dzp/housing_example_litterbox_setup/

YAY! Hope you and the bunnies are nice and cool!

I don’t have air-conditioning (it isn’t until really needed here, or wasn’t until last few years)… though I did invest in a portable one for the buns after a horrible week last year, so totally get the struggle. It’s supposed to be in the 90s (~32C) today and hoping I can keep things under 80F…[Read more]

I’m glad to hear she’s doing so well! Try to get a look of her incisors, in case she’s broken off a piece of tooth or something like that. Hopefully its just her lip that’s a bit sore though!

Hi,

Thanks for the input! Beanie can move perfectly fine without any limping. I noticed a little red spot on her right lip and it was swollen a little bit. However, the swelling has mostly gone done now and the red spot has also shrunk. She can eat and drink perfectly fine but she still sometimes licks her lips. I assume she does this to try and…[Read more]

Small Pet Select does sell pelleted paper litter.  They have 2 varieties.  One is supposedly for cats, although there are reviews on it from several rabbit owners.  The other pelleted paper litter is for small animals.  I don’t know what the difference is between them.  Neither one has baking soda.  The price may be higher than Yesterday’s News,…[Read more]

Thank you both!

We ended up shaving her, and the poor girl looks pathetic. It turned out to be a good thing since she hadn’t really been properly groomed before we got her, so her fur was really matted. She’ll get a fresh coat and stay cool this summer. Definitely doesn’t look like an infestation, we saw a total of 3 the entire day and a small…[Read more]

Oh no could there whiskers be crossing the barrier and each bunny is like quite poking me and then decided to chew them down?
