Did the vet do dental x rays to confirm she has overgrown tooth roots?

Sometimes runny eyes and a stuffed nose mean the URI that has come back or never was fully eradicated. Its not rare for a URI to need several weeks on antibiotics to resolve.

There is no home remedy for overgrown teeth. All you can do is try to get her to eat more hay and…[Read more]

Thank you DanaNM!! Good news, she did one very mucusy poop last night. Only thing is, she physically is the same 12 hours later still: lethargic, not active at all. Back to the vet tomorrow for the same injections, we will be asking for an oral painkiller and subq fluids. It does make me feel better that it is a long process. Thanks for your…[Read more]

Ahhh I too am guilty of the foster fail!  I started fostering Bonnie (who was a terrified and cage aggressive bun who had been at the shelter for 3 years). Of course we fell in love with her and she was doing so well. Decided to try to bond her with my pair. The girls didn’t get along, but we couldn’t send her back. Tried to have a quad, but the…[Read more]

If the tooth (or tooth roots) have gotten long enough to affect the eyes and sinuses, unfortunately she will need some dental work to correct the problem. At this point eating more hay won’t help.

Prices for dental procedures can vary, do you know if your vet is very confident with them? Perhaps you could get a second opinion to get another…[Read more]

Hmmm, it seems like something else might be going on health-wise. Can you describe her diet in detail, just so we can get a full picture? It is really good she eats a lot of hay, but that also makes it surprising that her poops are small still. I wonder if there could be an ingredient in her pellets that doesn’t agree with her?

@susanne, are they pointing their noses up when they’re licking the air? Like tilting their head back a bit and licking? Just asking coz it might be a symptom of a deeper airway infection that affects their breathing. It’s something to keep an eye on, but since youve got them antibiotics that would be first line of treatment anyway 😊

My heart goes out to you Moxie. I’m sorry you experienced that. 🙁

as others mentioned, it’s one of those horrible, unfortunate accidents. Loki was well loved, as is Finnegan and all your fur babies in your care and the ones already passed on.

Oh woooow, i have never seen a bunny molt like this haha. Oh he is so cute. It’s interesting how is he losing it all at once. Mine goes little by little

Hi Ali

I remember you. I’m sorry you had to say goodbye to your dear sweet girl. It is hard to see them decline rapidly like that.

12 really is a wonderful age for her to live to. And Blu almost 12 also!

Binky free (((Oreo)))

Despite the set-backs, Im glad you and Bas have started process of getting another fur baby to love. There are always buns in need of loving homes –  even if you adopt privately. I keep thinking of that neighbours rabbit you mentioned one time!

Elizabeth Holmes! Lol. I love it.

Those pumpkin look great, Wick! Nice work. I can see the elephant 😉

We had the carving type pumpkins for sale here again. I’ve always wondered how a carved watermelon would look as they’re  cheaper & im season here. The green could look ghoulish enough.

Sending some healing (((vibes))) to Max & Ruby…[Read more]

Sending hugs to Daisy! I love that her feline friend is keeping her company.

It is a rude shock to see them after facial abscess treatment. I hope she rallies soon. Sometimes I think they cope better then us.

The vets gave good feedback and kept you so well informed of everything that was done. It does sound like she was in good hands.

Are you…[Read more]

You can flush it out with mildly warm water.  Then, when you get a chance, get some pet eye wash to have on hand.  Burt’s bees is good.  I just had to flush a chunk of paper out of a dog’s eye… how did it get there??
