Hey! Thanks all for replying. I have another litter box behind my chair in the dining room. Most days just me around so….. the hall that has a runner and their bedroom. Pee pads are place in certain places. Wash the floors every couple of days with water/vinegar rest of time spray bottle with water/vinegar.…

Yes, I’ve sat inside with her and hand fed pellets. At first I had to extend and lean over to give her the pellet and slowly I withdrew my hand but I haven’t gotten her to put her paws on me. Have to move slowly or she’d bolt. Recently, I see her out about 1hr…

When we first got Arthas from the shelter, he was super terrified and nervous. So, to help him get used to us, I started out by sitting beside his pen and just talking to him. He spent the first couple of months in our bedroom, so at night, my husband and I would lay in…

I would remove everything except for the hay. Sometimes it’s pellets, and sometimes it’s greens/veggies. Get a variety of hay, and yes, a dried hay topper is good. See how he does for at least a few days, then try adding either the pellets or veggies to see how that goes. Poopy butt can be…

Oh no, I’m sorry to hear Gus is having problems! Have you made your long drive yet? I’m wondering if some of his change in hay consumption and bouts of poopy butt could have something to do with the changes that are happening around him. From your previous post about preparing for a long trip,…

It sounds like she is still scared. She was at the shelter before and basically shut down. She may still be in the same shut down mode now even though she is in a home setting. It sounds like you’re doing the right things. Some bunnies just take a lot longer than others to open…

Looking for suggestions on how to interact with my foster bun. Bun has been with me for a month and will have at least one more month with me. She is super duper shy and I almost never see her out; she has cardboard townhouse that she sits/sleeps in expect during pellet time. She won’t…

Maintenance and Housing Is your bunny housed indoors or outdoors?: Indoors. Does your bunny live with other bunnies?: No. How much exercise does your bunny get per day?: Freeroam! How often do you clean the litter box?: About once a week if we’re being completely honest. How often do you groom your bunny?: He doesn’t…

Aww, Pearl and Pebble. That’s cute! The good news about them sprinkling poops everywhere is that they are pretty easy to clean up. I would still try to restrict their freedom though, just for your own sanity. If they want to be near you, can you just block off some areas you don’t want them…

“Hopping and dropping” lol! I love that! I agree with LBJ, it sounds like the best bet is just going to be damage control until they are old enough to get spayed. I’ve had good luck with washable pee pads in bunny pens before. Maybe if you notice them favoring particular areas, try some of…

Hey, thanks for replying. Yes, Loki was he was different. Yes, I am sure they are both female. I took them to the vet two weeks ago and they were both confirmed female. I agree with the territorial they’re not dumping poops there hopping and dropping. lol The pee that’s new I put out…

Hi Sarah, I remember Loki. I’m sorry to hear he passed. 🙁 Yeah, so, these new babies are juuuuuust starting to reach bunny puberty. This means things are probably going to get worse before they get better. The pooping and peeing is very likely territorial. The best you can do is put stuff down that…

I have two female Holland lops came to me at five weeks. They are now three months old. I had them let her trained now they seem like they’re not they’re pooping everywhere and sometimes pee. They have their own room plus half the house they have an under bed storage container for litter Which…

Define breathing heavy? Do you have a video?
-
my bunny has always been breathing heavy and hard even when he’s relaxing, I just don’t think it’s normal. He goes to the vet frequently and they never tell me he has a heart murmur, I’m just hoping there is someone out there who can help me or tell me what they use to calm…

I know not all hotels accept pets, so it may help to look them up ahead of time. I always use Trivago when we travel to search for hotels because they list rooms from all sorts of sites, so you can see the various price differences all in one place. You could scope ahead for…

Things happen. An occasional missed cecotrope isn’t a big deal. The concern would be if she was clearly not eating any of them or if she was producing too many and they were getting stuck to her butt. A lone cecotrope on the floor every once in awhile? I would say nothing to worry about.
-
Thank you! I just desperately wanted a second opinion to make sure my plan was solid, appreciate the input! I’m so scared over this drive, probably more so than Gus will be during it, lol. He’s had stasis once before and it was awful, nothing was working, I just don’t want to see my little…

Gus did a plane ride with me, the same journey I am taking now just backwards, and after awhile he started to eat on the plane – hoping the same will be true for the car ride. Generally, he is a very stressed little guy when it comes to car rides but chills right out…
