Just wanted to post an update.
I reached to my vet, and she also said it sounds like adrenal issue. She is going to take a blood test for the hormones this Sunday, and then see if levels are elevated. She said it can be treated surgically (by removing adrenal gland, but only 1 side can be removed, other is too close to some major vein) or by…[Read more]

You can often break up the mats (aside from trimming) if you pull on the sides of them. If there really are tons of them it may be easiest to just trim them all and start fresh, but if you just gradually work on them hopefully you can make progress! If they are really close to the skin it probably would be best to wait till the fur grows out a bit…[Read more]

It’s hard to see in the picture. Is it a scab that is close to the skin? Or does it protrude? It almost looks like a keratinized papilloma… but it’s hard to tell from the picture.

Do you see any “dandruff” or flakiness around the scab or at the nape of his neck or base of tail?

If not, Id just keep an eye and have a look at it daily. As long as its dry and doesn’t increase in size or the skin becomes very red around it, this will probably heal nicely without intervention.

If you see dandruff/skin flakes and/or see your…[Read more]

Yes they are caged side by side I just hope she feels better soon,  I’ve gotten her lots of new treats and toys but she seems sad still , I’m hoping that maybe some time on her own will help her feel rested

I do think it is important to get her spayed before you consider them fully bonded. Aside from the cancer risk (which is close to 75% by age 4 and goes up after that), the hormonal fluctuations that she will go through can trigger issues with the bond. The male might mount her excessively, which can be stressful to her, and she will also probably…[Read more]

Hi sorry, for some reason it didn’t attach the photograph. It’s small and she seems to be unbothered by it but I am a little worried about the missing hair around it.

My female isn’t spayed yet no but she seems to miss him alot ever since the babies have been rehomed she seems quite sad and anxious at the moment,  she’s very nervous all the time and she seems to be missing someone in the cage with her . Im not quite sure what to do she has always been a shy rabbit but I’m quite worried about her at the moment

Is your female spayed now?  Both rabbits should be castrated for the bond to be stable. Female rabbits also have very high rates of reproductive cancers if they are not spayed.

How long have the bonding sessions been? In general, bonded rabbits should show a lot of positive behaviors (cuddling, mutual grooming, sharing food and litter box), and…[Read more]

It is very important for rabbits to eat grass hay, as it is necessary for their digestion as well as their teeth. Rabbits’ teeth grow continuously and if they don’t chew hay for several hours a day it can lead to something called a “molar spur”, which makes eating painful. A diet low in fiber will also cause problems because rabbits need the fiber…[Read more]

so my male and female have been separated as she has babies  and we now have rehomed them all and he was castrated , we are in the middle of bonding them . my female has always been very timid and my male is very hyper , they are opposites for sure but get on . He’s been doing the usual chasing and odd nibble but no done any harm , she just ru…[Read more]

Our rabbit’s diet is not great. Mostly pellets. He does not like veggies of any sort. Sometimes he will munch coriander. He will nibble at grass on occasion. He will also have cauliflower leaves a bit.

Thank you.

I cant find that you have posted a picture.

Without knowing how it looks, I can only say that a scab on an ear is often a result of the bun scratching the ear. If its small and dry and the bun doesn’t seem bothered by it, you as a rule dont have to do anything, but a picture would be great!

There is a such thing as stress humping. I have first-hand knowledge! LOL  Do you think he could be stressed out about something? Loud noise? Strange smells? Change in the household?
