Did you notice a trigger around the fight? Like food aggression or a litter box dispute? It sounds like they had a somewhat tenuous bond to begin with.

Did things resolve on their own or did you break them up?

Sometimes moving to a new location can cause issues in bonded pairs, but things usually do resolve with some supervision (as long as the…[Read more]

I agree that you should have a vet check her out, it sounds like perhaps a toe was broken.

Can you post a pic? From what it sounds it seems like the vet would be a good idea but I don’t know because I can’t see what it looks like.

I get a lot of people telling me to put down water.. I tried this when I was at my parents house but they ignored it and spilled it everywhere.. I tried it again with a bigger space and they couldn’t care less either…

Same with food.. I put down hay during their second session of yesterday and didn’t care for it, they just made a mess with…[Read more]

I’m so sorry for your loss. 🙁

What a beautiful tribute, and beautiful bun!

Not that you could ever replace her, but I found a lot of comfort in fostering after Bertha passed away. I wasn’t ready to get another bunny, but knowing I was helping a rabbit in need helped me a lot with the pain of losing her.

Recovery from stasis can be slow in the adult rabbits, and it can take time for appropriate gut flora to develop. I know bene-bac is used for weaning orphaned cottontails, so you might try that specific probiotic as well.

I would…[Read more]

Its difficult to say if its the Critical Care. Excessive protein can sometimes cause sticky poop, in sensitive individuals. At the same time, she is a growing bun and needs protein. Its not uncommon for young, healthy rabbits to leave extra cecotropes.

Recovery from stasis can be very slow and thus challenging for the human.

<p style=”text-align: center;”>I hope it’ll help her. She had a gas attack and she’s making mushy poops today morning as well. Also leaving some cecotropes, I wonder if that’s from the critical care? Could it be too rich for her? It was similar yesterday except she was way worse. Her poops go back to normal eventually after lots of massage and…[Read more]
