Thank you for replying so fast.. he was at the vet 5 days before this behavior started. They said his ear infection was cleared up. I continued his medication to finish it up. He  stress scratches both ears and he seems to eat everything he used to. He still lets me pet him while he lays under the table …

is it possible that he has ps…[Read more]

Thanks for filling out the template. I’m wondering if you can re-arrange so they live in more proximity to each other, while still being separated. Re: pen/gate rattling, that is very common because the rabbit can see the other side/perceives it should be simple to get to the other side by rattling. This can usually be deterred by covering the…[Read more]

The poop is small and dark because he doesnt eat hay. Hay makes poop big and lighter in color.

The Harlequin breed tends to be around 8-1olbs. It doesn’t…[Read more]

How soon should I do the spay?

Thanks for the reply!

Based on your experience, what signs mean it’s okay to finally leave them? They’re eating together, grooming one another and have shown no further signs of annoyance at all today that I can tell. And they’ve been cuddling for nearly half of the day. Basically, no nipping or chasing or anything, and they’re both using the…[Read more]

I am very discouraged as they are doing so well side by side. Today they pretty much went for each other immediately. I don’t know if it’s still hopeful.
