So I did a bit more research on the topic..come to find out it’s a myth! I’m sorry about that, I was miss-informed  🙁

I have heard that wet veggies could cause tummy issues(meaning excessively wet not meaning the dampness like they usually come out of the fridge as)  , this could be false and if so I apologize!

I just gave him another good brush and got another decently sized handful of fur off of him. He doesn’t LOOK like he’s shedding anymore, but I think it’s all coming from the lower layers of his coat, so it’s not visible until you actually start brushing. Do you think there’s anything else that I should be doing? He’s acting totally fine right…[Read more]

He is pooping regularly, they’re just those small dry ones. I really hope they go back to normal soon.

Thank you! He’s totally normal otherwise, so I hope they go back to normal soon.

Her behavior sounds very normal for a teenage, unspayed bunny. Bunnies naturally like to dig… but insisting on digging ON you is more of a hormonal thing. Her “unfriendliness” is also driven by hormones. She isn’t interested in being petted, she is interested in establishing her territory and hopefully finding a mate. These behaviors will likely…[Read more]

I wouldn’t worry. If your bunny is still eating plenty of hay, then he’s probably just a little dehydrated or is still feeling the effects of the molt. Stress can also cause small poops.

Yes, you could certainly try Children’s Benedryl. It would at least help dry things up in there.

I have 2 buns that I feed a pellet free diet.  We have been pellet free for 5 or 6 months now.  My female rabbit would go insane for pellets and wouldn’t eat enough hay, she was also getting quite chunky so after a lot of research this was the path I chose.  The problem obviously with pellet free diets is to ensure you provide all the necessary nu…[Read more]

That’s a good point Susanne! Thank you for your thoughts on that!

I did take her for the appointment in the end and left feeling much more at ease and informed on all the possible reasons for her symptoms so it was definitely worth it! She’s on pain meds now and they are suspecting arthritis or possible spondylosis. Fingers crossed she’ll be…[Read more]

Hi and welcome to BB! I have already commented on your pic in your other thread – those are two seriously adorable bunnies! Totally second Wick, cute bunny spamming is highly encouraged 😃

Have you tried any allergy medication, like Children’s Benedryl?

While the culture showed nothing, admittedly due to my experiences with my Wick’s URI, I am a supporter for trying at least another antibiotic before giving up. Wick’s vet at the time didn’t have the resources to do cultures, and in the absence of side effects, we were comfortable…[Read more]

George had chronic URI, nothing, I mean nothing could stop him from being sneezy and having a runny nose. CT scan did not elucidate anything. We assumed he just had chronic allergies which led to infections. The one thing that did hlep was nebulization with saline and acetylcysteine  (this latter helped keep his sinuses running), twice daily. We…[Read more]
