Thanks Dana. The whole thing has me so stressed, I’m still very worried about them fighting. Ruby and Elmer had such a different dynamic, and not sure what to think of all Ruby’s nipping. But yet she groomed him already. I did put a dustpan barrier between them a couple times last session.

I think I’m just going to take it slow. Maybe try for…[Read more]

Thank you, Dana.

You are obviously not a bad bun mum, but it feels that way when we have a poorly bun. They’re so small and we want to help them so much. You have done a wonderful job with your bun, and thanks to you, she knows what it is to be loved.

All her symptoms fit EC, which of course doesnt mean she cant have comorbidities. Since her eyes were first…[Read more]

Yes, I will call both vets on Monday and ask those questions!

I give it in the morning by literally dumping it on the ground, haha. I give Fable (7lb) two tablespoons and then Wick (2lb) one:

As @DanaNM noted, rabbits out of their young growth period aren’t going to be converting as much of their intake to actually growing their body size, so weight gain with the same diet/quantities may not be unusual,…[Read more]

Thank you for the advice Dana! They are both giant rabbits. I have been told not to get Caramac spayed until she is at least 6-8 months since they take longer to mature. Seems like until she is spayed and then recovers, I should keep them separate then…

I am so sorry for the situation you’re in. I understand where the guilt you feel comes from, but you mustn’t let it weigh you down.

I think when it comes to difficult choices in life, you need to consider the worst outcome of your choices. Which is worse, taking her or not taking her? If taking her on a 5 hour bus ride has the chance of her…[Read more]

My pairs still seek me out for cuddles for the most part. 🙂 Then you get the benefit of cuddling two bunnies at once!

The only exception is Bonnie, who wasn’t cuddly to begin with. She’s bonded with Cooper, who is exceedingly cuddly, and still comes to get snuggles from us constantly. I’ve never had a cuddly bun become less cuddly after…[Read more]

I usually go based off how their spine feels. You should be able to feel the bumps that are on the top of the vertebrae, but not edges of them, if that makes sense?

Since Science Selective is an extruded type pellet, it’s a little less dense and the weird shape might make it harder to measure out with a spoon. But I think you could prob cut her…[Read more]

And what could be the thing with the cecotrope? I just find one every evening and that’s it.

I’m so sorry for what you are going through. Don’t feel guilty, if you hadn’t adopted her I’m sure she would have met a worse fate. 🙁

It does sound a lot like EC, and the treatment (with panacur) can take a really long time. But then you are at day 25… I wonder if the dosage was correct? Sometimes also giving a pain med helps with the…[Read more]

Oh well your bunny only gets one tablespoon? When do you give it?

I really think it depends on the rabbits in question. Some are just not all that interested in their owners. They like each other and that’s just the way it is. Then you have the bonded pair where both rabbits seek attention. This was more my experience. Most rabbits are not super cuddly. Breintje was very special indeed. But many bonded rabbits…[Read more]

We give her romaine lettuce, parsley, green lettuce, cilantro. That’s the main I give her. And how much of greens do you give your bunnies?

No no she is already few months on adult pellets, supreme science selective rabbit food.

Yeah well wer activity levels, haha, she is one lazy bunny. She just runs a little in the morning and evening. We try…[Read more]

I have these Supreme Science Selective Rabbit for adults. Until now we didn’t have problem with weight but suddenly now she is gaining it.

Well I have this one ” Supreme Science Selective Rabbit ” for adults. And there is written 60 grams for rabbit for a day and that is a bit too much haha 😅

OMG! What is wrong with people?

Our situation has calmed a little but we are also actively looking for a place as well. Just being here gives me so much anxiety, I can feel my blood pressure rise whenever I know the landlord is around. She lives in the house attached to ours, it’s like a duplex sort of situation with a shared yard, so we just…[Read more]
