Have you tried any relaxation remedies? I have had no luck with the Rescue Remedy working, but Small Pet Select’s Zen Tranquility blend mellows out Fable, who is the most anxious rabbit ever.

With them both having sore hocks (and not being Rexes), it does lean into environmental/care factors that may be contributing it. Can you link a picture of your set-up perhaps?

Outside environmental, other factors contributing to sore hocks include being overweight (I mention because weight standards by breed are arbitrary, so there is always a…[Read more]

Only thing I can think of would be that she had sth stuck between her teeth, like a tiny piece of hay, that caused her some pain until it eventually came loose by itself.

I’m glad she’s back to eating again! Obviously keep a close eye so you see she continues eating.

I dont think its pain if she doesnt display any other signs of pain. I had a bun whose teeth purring could be heard across a room.

Update: we had an appointment scheduled but ended up not having to go as my girl resumed eating normally! Very happy about this but also very confused about what could have caused her to be so averse to hard foods for almost 5 full days but then return to normal eating. Any thoughts?

Ouch, that sounds like one spicy burrito 🙁

I’m happy to hear that he’s been eating some pellets though!

Apollo seems to be doing ok. He’s had pellets a few times now without any issues which is good. He has however become worse again with medicating. Yesterday he leapt off my lap (fortunately I had him well positioned and he landed on all fours) and this morning he bit me three times. I think the first two weeks I only got one or two nips, the past…[Read more]

Hey all! I am new to this and planning on getting a Flemish Giant. As far as the litter, could I use the tidy cat breeze system?

Looks like a weeping willow to me.

It looks like a very typical willow, leaves, shape of the tree and location (near water).

There are many types of willow, they’re all edible for buns. They seem to like some types better than others. I have a tree of your type in my yard and my buns have all loved it.

If you can get a bigger amount the leaves dry very well and can be a nice…[Read more]

Om I’m glad she’s eating kale near you! (Both good things, eating and being social). Jelly poop is better than no poop, but obviously not ideal. Sometimes the jelly-like mucus means the colon is irritated, in some cases (more often in very young buns) it means there’s overgrowth of the wrong gut bacteria. Keep a close eye, if she starts having…[Read more]
