@Hazel – What kind of fence do you have? If it’s a wooden privacy fence, can you put one of those anti-cat measures along the top? Like a cat fence roller? I’m just thinking that if you can at least keep them out of your yard, it would help some. I know I’ve mentioned this before, but I’m still wondering if a local cat rescue could help capture…[Read more]

I really appreciate everyone’s supportive words. I knew this would be the right place to discuss my grief. You’re all sympathetic bunny parents who know how much joy they bring.
@David – I’m so sorry for you loss. Floppy sounds like such a loved bunny. COVID has made things harder because we can’t accompany our loved ones in the examination…[Read more]

Okay yes, he’s been acting completely normal getting the zoomies and doing binkies around the house. I will make an appt to get a wellness check though! Thank you!

As long as there isn’t something going on in his ear (ear infection, ear mites, etc.), then it’s possible that he has a little bit of lop mixed in there. Sometimes lop mixes have helicopter ears.

I just got a new bunny and I’ve only ever had a lop rabbit. The new rabbit is from a petstore and is around 8-9 weeks. He appears to be a lion head. He’s acting completely normal but I started to notice one ear seems to be dropping a little. I just want to know if he could be mixed with a lop or if it’s something I should be more concerned about…[Read more]

I’m planning on trying another in the bathroom now I’ll have more time, but I’ll clean it with white vinegar and hopefully get an x-pen to better block spots they’ll hide in and fight over. If that still goes poor, I’ll try to set them up in a small space using the x-pen in the living room. Both haven’t been in the back area of it, only Zelda…[Read more]

@Hazel, that’s just awful. Could you put Mosby on maintenance Revolution until you can get rid of the cats? (Maybe you already have). Poor cats, its so sad. Lots of stray cats here, I hate finding their dead victims in the garden. I know the strays must eat, but people really ought to spay and neuter their outdoors cats. There is a new law here…[Read more]

Oh my goodness @Azerane! I’m so glad you’re OK and are simply reporting your experience. Definitely a good reminder to dress appropriately for the outdoors.. I can imagine birds are a wonderful distraction and can make us put our guard down, haha.
At this point, literally starting last week, we started letting Wick out free-roam for about 1hr…[Read more]

Wick & Fable replied to the topic Free choice pellets or measured? in the forum DIET & CARE 4 years, 10 months ago
It is important to consider the consequences of our actions, and I recommend reading information with such direct, extreme consequences with caution, as they often are oversimplifying or simply not based on fact. Yes, there can be negative consequences to your rabbit’s health when not offering an appropriate amount of measured pellets, but that…[Read more]

DanaNM replied to the topic Bonding help pt. 2 in the forum BONDING 4 years, 10 months ago
My rule of thumb is to give a certain set-up 2 or three dates to see how it goes. If it’s not working out (like you see zero signs of improvement), then it won’t hurt to move locations, as long as the new location is as neutral (or more neutral) than the original location. I actually think that working in different locations can help the bond be…[Read more]

Azerane replied to the topic October Chat! in the forum THE LOUNGE 4 years, 10 months ago
That sounds like a really difficult problem Hazel. I hope you can get it sorted somehow. Maybe the rabbits temporarily need a secure run for the yard so they can at least get some time out?
Boy do I have a story for you guys! I had an interesting day yesterday. We have a nice big park super close by so I’ve been walking there a lot with either my…[Read more]

Maybe but I don’t know about the third date. I felt like it went roughly as the first. There was mostly ignoring as I first tried to keep the rug removed from the bathroom but this really prompted Zelda to find a place to hide rather than interact. Lots of nipping and both getting annoyed each other / some boxing I think, along with some more fur…[Read more]

LBJ10 replied to the topic Dental issues in the forum DIET & CARE 4 years, 10 months ago
Abscesses do typically show up on x-rays, but they don’t always show up very well. Vets will often try to get x-rays from different views to help identify abscesses and whether or not infection is spreading (i.e. to the bone).
If a healthy tooth is simply broken off at the gum line, it will typically grow back because the root is still there.…[Read more]

Thank you so much, I’m sure you guys hear it all the time, but you truly are life-savers <3.
I’d like to ask you a couple of things :):
– The vet did a x-ray on Tambor, if there were abscesses, the x-ray would have shown them, right?
– The x-ray showed 4 missing molars. There was no sign of new ones growing and the vet didn’t mention anything…[Read more] - Load More
