Sorry for all the posting, but I did it again. I got a guinea pig a few years back, knowing nothing about them. I realized how bad of a move this was– you should always research first. Well, Evie, my lionhead, was kind of the same thing. I did some research first, but since I’ve joined this site I’ve realized how unprepared I am! I want to be the best mommy for her.

She’s in a cage right now, and I plan to get her an ex-pen in a month. We’re still bodning and she’s not fully potty trained, so I can’t give her free range yet. I’ll get her spayed once I find a good vet, and hopefully that will help with the potty training. But, she gets so restless. I feel bad because she doesn’t have a lot of space or out time (I try to give her at least an hour out and about in the bathroom with me.)

How can I be a better mommy until she’s potty trained/I get an expen? I’m sure this sounds very paranoid and dramatic, but I feel like she’s my baby and I don’t want to mess up!

Thanks.

Could you make something temporarily to block her off from things in a room until you get the xpen? Supervised of course. She should really get out more than and hour a day. You should also put a 2nd litter box out in the expanded area.

I don’t know where you live in the Seattle area but I can recommend our vet who is a specialist in rabbits he is located on main street in Bothell.

Dr Maas is wonderful, he totally understands crazy bunny people like us! We even board our 3 buns at his clinic when we go on vacation.

this vet was listed thru the HRS vet page http://www.rabbitrodentferret.org/rabbitrodentferret.org/vets.asp?animal=1

Seattle – Melissa Nathanson, DVM North Seattle Veterinary Clinic 10322 Lake City Way N.E. Seattle,WA 98125 Phone:206-523-7187 , fax: email: hours:
Dr. Nathanson trained at AMC in New York (one of the best “exotic” hospitals in the US.) In 1999 she began spaying/neutering the Redmond rabbits. Several years later she began spay/neuter surgeries for our g. pigs. We highly recommend her. She also carries Lupron for ferrets.

I CANNOT VOUCH FOR HER B/C I DON’T KNOW HER, but you can call yourself and gather info.
