I think I see a mark on his bottom lip to the right. From the photos, it kind of looks like a freckle.

I’ve not had any experience with those in the buns, but a couple of my cats have those. In fact, my one ginger boy, Kyo, has all sorts of black freckles on his nose that have developed over time. And on his toe beans and along the side of his…[Read more]

Hey!

I’m always down to share bunny photos! 😀

We have 4 buns right now (and 3 cats). Rocky and Napoleon are a bonded pair, and Arthas and Georgia are a work in progress pair. Everyone is pretty fat and happy (hoomans included lol).

This is Rocky (lop) and Napoleon, giving me the “Where’s dinner?” face.

This is Arthas (orange bun) and…[Read more]

I see the photos, but I’m not sure what I’m supposed to be seeing. Where is this mark?

It’s nice to see some familiar “faces” around here. The forum has been pretty slow, but some older members do pop in now and then. 🙂

Oh, I’m so sorry Miu had to have liver lobe surgery! I hope she will recover well, and I’m happy to hear you caught it early. I remember Dorian’s surgery, some years ago.

I have two buns now, Snöa and Lage. They’re both mini rexes. Snöa is 4 and Lage is 1, their bond was super-easy. Lage isn’t very tame, but that’s not unheard of for buns that b…[Read more]

Can’t seem to add more than 1 image. So will add Miu separately.

It’s been a while for me too! To say this simply, things are stressful in my house and that’s all I can really say on it. I’m so sorry about Miu and the liver lobe surgery but I’m glad that she’s (I hope I remembered Mui’s sex correctly, if not then I’m super sorry) doing better! This forum really is awesome. Hope everything is going good for you all!

If there was an actual infection, then I don’t think a 3 week course is going to hurt anything. Of course, I am used to dealing with stubborn URIs and, yes, sometimes the antibiotics had to continue for weeks just to make sure the infection was resolved. GI flora is always a concern. But if the antibiotic isn’t causing any upset now, then another…[Read more]

@lBJ10 – I think she had a mild infection (excess bacteria) based on the blood panel prior to surgery.  I did call vet but receptionist basically told me their vets do not make mistakes, which is not realistic. She really did not want to put me through to an actual vet or even vet assistant. I know from experience that they do. It’s an emergency…[Read more]

I’m sorry Miu had to go through that. Poor thing. Are the antibiotics just as a preventative? Or are they for an actual infection? Antibiotic course lengths can vary by type of antibiotic, and what they are being used for.

It wouldn’t hurt to try a new type of hay to see if piques his interest. I think Oxbow (or other hay suppliers) may even sell a “sampler” or variety pack on Amazon. I know I have gotten small bags of Oxbow hay that were approximately $4-$6, but they were different varieties than the standard Timothy that ours eat, so I was able to add some to the…[Read more]

Unfortunately, if more desirable foods are readily available, many bunnies will opt for that over hay. It’s generally recommended that you decrease pellets in order to encourage hay eating. That being said, his reduced interest in hay could be any number of things. There is always the possibility of it being a teeth issue since hay is often the…[Read more]

If I go the carpeted ramp/ottoman route as suggested, I will definitely invest in cord protectors all around for sure – both for Gus’ safety and my computer’s safety haha. I’m thinking of getting one that is slightly lower than my desk, still within reaching distance, so he would have to jump up to get onto the desk itself.

I agree that petting…[Read more]
