Maybe it’s a sound that they happen to recognize and like I just remember always playing music for my first rabbit Snowball and he never really did anything but Stewart recognizes it a lot.

It can be a personality mismatch AND there can be a way around it. You can try separating them just at food times temporarily.

Tilting up and mouth breathing are generally signs that your rabbit is having difficulty breathing. This may be from a respiratory infection, something going on in the nasal cavity, or really anything impacting the processes that go into breathing.

If not severe, it may not need an emergency vet visit, but if there is any hint or worry on your…[Read more]

Must be wonderful to have wildlife like that in your yard, how exciting! We just have a big, fat rat 🤣

Congrats on the new job Bladesmith, I’ve been at the same job for over a decade so I’d be terrified starting anything new.

It’s been a very long week here, work was crazy due to stocktake which means longer shifts and hours all over the place,…[Read more]

I’m so sorry you lost Bella. She was truly gorgeous!

I too have lost buns because they fell ill on the weekend. I’m pretty sure at least one of them could have been saved if he could’ve been seen by a proper rabbit vet. I would’ve lost my Vilde too if he hadn’t had the sense to get sick on a Tuesday morning.

(btw the last two links, I need to…[Read more]

Not entirely sure if those two links work so here they are again in google drive format!

Yes, linked poop mans there’s some sort of gut slowdown. It is often related to shedding. A gut slowdown can cause gas build-up. It’s not uncommon that a splotch or sticky lump is the first poop a bun has after a bout off gas/gut slowdown.

Thank you Wick.

Its all the memories we wanted to make as well that makes it hard. For example I was saving up for a bunny castle that she could use as the ramp was low and she loved things like that!

I try not to think of what ifs but I’ve had the same thing happen twice now, which is loosing a bunny because no exotics vets were available for…[Read more]

Okay so this happened. My bun was pressing her tummy to the floor in the evening. I immediately gave her gas drops and tummy massage. It seemed to help because she immediately went to the litterbox. She left there a whole lot poops linked together with fur along with perfect golden poops.

Could this be the problem that the linked poops and fur…[Read more]

I did unlimited like Wick mentioned~

Just realized I have no idea how many dates they have had, but anyway here is

Today’s bun date summary:

We made it an hour! I am not sure how great that was. It started with the usual sniff about and generally ignoring each other.

I put some hay down and the both ate that for a while.  At on point Miu asked for grooming,  but Dorian didn’t n…[Read more]

1. From my experience (with Fable), doesn’t really matter in litterbox or not — they sort of just happen. Fable only poos in her litterbox therefore all those funky poops land there too!
2. Are they filled/linked with fur perchance?

Reading that she has good hay appetite makes me less concerned about it. While the golden standard is those dry,…[Read more]

For a 2mo rabbit, it is recommended to be on unlimited alfalfa-based hay and pellets to match the rapid growth she’ll be doing until ~6mo! : https://wabbitwiki.com/wiki/Diet#Age

“Unlimited” is a big amount and refill when needed essentially. Ideally, you want to be observing regular hay consumption in addition to the pellet consumption.

Sorry — we are having site-wide image upload issues. If you can post the images on imgr, google drive, or another picture posting site, you can always post the share links here so people can see your lovely Bella.

Thank you for telling her story, and I’m sure this will be very helpful for future rabbit owners. Binky free Bella~~ you were so well-loved.
