I’ve spent a lot of time with mine out in her play pen but no luck other then some pets, albeit she really loves them and even has a “spot” like a dog and will lick me everytime i hit it, then when i stop the licks stop, it’s really cute.

I do feed her in her small cage which is in her play pen and is what i used to take her inside to transfer…[Read more]

I know. It’s still inching upward here in Australia. 😥 Im likely to stuff up the Aus-US $ and litre to gallon conversions so I won’t bother. But its highest it’s been in 7 years, I believe.

Mmm, Thumperbelle?
Thumper sounds a pretty unisex name for a rabbit, to be honest.

Welcome back!

This is really interesting and unusual!  So, I have a senior male bun who has tended to show an uptick in hormonal behaviors as he’s gotten older, and I know that’s not uncommon. I wonder if his “hormonal” behaviors are manifesting as aggresion??

Do you know if his vision has gotten worse? I’m wondering if maybe he can’t see that…[Read more]

I don’t mean to sow too much doubt in your vet, I’m just wondering if a second opinion (especially if you can find a specialist) would be helpful at this stage to hopefully get some answers.

Most rabbits don’t like being held or cuddled on laps, so that’s pretty normal. Even the ones who haven’t lived in the wild are still prey animals by nature so being caught and held can be very scary for them. Most of my buns really like to be petted when I sit on the floor with them, and one will jump on the couch for snuggles. 🙂

Awww, she looks so comfortable! Very cute ^_^

Agreed. Either a nasty abscess or a tumor of some kind. This needs vet attention.

This sounds adorable!

No, my bun does not rock out, but he does love to toss and throw things. So, his version of rocking out is smashing the guitar at the end of a show!

Thanks for the response and kind words. Yes she is very sassy. She doesn’t mind being pet, but yeah any kind of trying to pick her up, put her on my lap, hold her, etc she is not up for it. Might be do to when she was out in the wild and the large scratch she had might be from a bird, so the feeling of being picked up might be really off putting…[Read more]

I’m taking Kotton back to our regular vet tomorrow first and they may do a dental xray if she’s not in a terrible condition. And will probably give her some fluids too to hopefully get her back on a better state. And then I’ll see if I can get her records and send to the other vet for a virtual review first. Fingers crossed.

Oh thank you I hadn’t considered this!

Thank you very much for the reply. I think the vet was just worried about side effects, as she isn’t outdoors full time, but i’m new to rabbits so what do I know haha. She will be getting vaccinated though in the next month or so. I know the importance of spaying/neutering(one of my dogs Sky the one who passed away recently got pyometra when she…[Read more]

Hm, that’s worrying. I’ll reach out to my other friends with bunny to see where I can send her to in the neighborhood. The only other bunny doctors I know are both 30mins to 1 hour of driving away from me.
