I saw it. Its nothing like that. In my bunny its water/liquid, no jelly-like things and it’s not thick.

Thanks Bam. My 1st vet was asking me how was the mucus in my bunny and I said my bunny never had mucus. Now I can understand based on pictures their vet tech mentioned to the vet that my bunny has mucus and they prescribed metronidazole.

@prince dorian the bun: Birch leaves are fine for rabbits. The twigs and the wood are also fine, although some say you shouldn’t give birch twigs during winter because birch produces some sort of anti-freeze to protect itself when it’s cold. I don’t know if this is true though, but just to be safe it could be best to only give birch twigs during…[Read more]

If she’s pooping, producing cecotropes, and eating her cecotropes, I think bloat is pretty unlikely (just my 2 cents, I am not a vet of course).

Many rabbits don’t like critical care even when they are feeling food so syringe feeding is pretty standard stasis treatment.

If your rabbit’s stomach is hard, that is indicative of bloat and is a medical emergency that needs veterinary attention immediately. Often, owners believe they are feeling the stomach when they are actually feeling a different portion of the body. You can use this video for guidance on where to feel for the stomach in order to assess whether your…[Read more]

Make sure she keeps warm. She might like a warm waterbottle that she can snuggle up to – but she must have enough space so she can move away from the heat source if she doesn’t want it.

It is very good that she pooped and ate her cecotropes.

Initially, yes, it is normal not to put pressure on the paw; however, if it has been a couple hours and movement is not back to normal, I recommend going to a rabbit-vet to have it assessed. In the process of the nail coming off, there can be injury to the specific toe/finger/paw that can benefit from imaging assessment and pain medication.

Well she’s definitely not eating yet. Just eating her poops. It’s just her really hard stomach that is making me nervous. She is also refusing the critical care to I’m going to have to syringe feed her.

When you let them hop around more freely during the session, do they immediately go after each other aggressively? If you watch their ear and tail position that will give you some clues. Ears back and tail up is aggressive, so if you notice them moving towards each other with that ear position, you should interrupt them right away and start…[Read more]

I would feel very relieved! Pooping and eating is amazing!

I think continuing with critical care until she’s 100% is a good plan!

Thank you everyone for you support and advice. She just came home with me. The vet said her stomach feels a lot smaller. She is suuuper tired so I can’t tell how much better she is in terms of eating. The vet said she was eating the romaine they gave her and she needs to be given critical care. Her stomach feels smaller but hard to me (which is w…[Read more]

oh I forgot to tell” letting them go “means that they are able to hop around the place when both of them are in the same place during the session,,but whenever I did that,it would always result in them fighting,,so for now I only pet them and let them eat meals together,,but the weird part to me is that after they ate,they would flop around each…[Read more]

I have pictures. They’re gross.

I’ve posted one on my Google drive. Here’s the link, I hope it works!
